Round 4 of the MotoSeries race series was held at BeaveRun (in Wampum, PA).
The weather was a swealtering 90 degrees (although it felt like 100).
Tom started the race, but had trouble keeping up with Team MTS.
23 minutes in to the race, to other riders went down on the same lap, and I heard that gas had spewed on to the track... so we were red-flagged off the track for about 30 minutes.  At this point, we were 1 lap behind Team MTS.
Jon started the 2nd leg of the race, and had to do a race start - sinec he was starting from a red flag.
He did a much better race start than last time  Grin
Jon held a great race pace for his session, but I suppose he was a little tired due to the extreme heat - and came in to the pit a little faster than expected, and ended up riding a stoppie past the pit (which my kids thought was really cool  Wink
Paul ran the next session, and was really flying out there.  We were putting up a good fight for Team MTS - but unfortunately for them, they started having mechanical problems.  This put them down a couple of laps.  They were able to get back out on the track - but it was too late, and Team TDR pulled in another 1st place.

On a side note - 2 of the riders from team MTS, as well as Paul (from Team TDR) decided to have some fun in the sprint races earlier in the day, and the 3 of them came in first, second, and third place - so a congrats to the endurance riders sweeping the sprints  Wink

Nice writeup Tom.  You guys did awesome - especially considering the heat.

I wonder what happened during the June race...  Roll Eyes
