Round #3 of the 2015 FL/GA Spring Championship was a treat for spectators, with high-flying racing action at Motocross of Marion County! Racers were giving their best performances, charging hard and flying their machines over the jumps in spectacular fashion. For the most part, they made it look easy. However, the day did not go so effortlessly for a few, as there were a few hard crashes. The most spectacular crash of the day belonged to Kawasaki rider John Ogrady (#210). Ogrady made the tough decision to bail out over Reddick's famous "Hang-Time" jump. Fortunately he was not seriously hurt, and now has quite a racing story to tell! FLMN happened to catch the near catastrophe on film, and John Ogrady MOST CERTAINLY will hold the Florida MOTO News Featured Photo spot for a while!

  

Speed and style were evident all throughout the day of racing. Riders took to the track to battle for the win, and some managed to even obtain their goal in more than one class. Barry Mccarty (KTM #27) dominated the Plus classes, taking the win in the +35, +45, and +50 classes, with 1-1 moto scores in each class! Bryce Backaus (YAM #497), Dylan Greer (YAM #777), and Austin Stuart (YAM #127) rode well, and took wins in two classes each. Backaus won both the Lites A class and the Open Money class. Dylan Greer got his two wins in the Lites B class and the MX B class, with Stuart's wins coming in the 105-250cc 12-15 and Lites C classes.

   

Classes for the smaller bikes were just as packed with talented, high-flying racers. Hardy Munoz (YAM #73), displayed his talent all day, riding with obvious skill, and taking the win in both the Super Mini 12-15 class and the 85cc 12-15 class. The 65cc Open and 65cc 10-11 classes were both won by Rosue Hernandez (KTM #899). Hernandez raced three classes, and rode strong all day, with a second place finish aboard his larger 85cc machine in the 85cc 10-11 class. If there were an award for kicking butt in the most classes in one event, Ryder Gwynn (KTM #5) would surely win it! The talented young racer competed in FOUR classes, taking the win in both the 50cc Open and 50cc 7-9 classes. Gwynn proved he was a threat to win aboard his 65cc machine as well, taking third place finishes in both the 65cc 7-9 class, and the 65cc Open class.

   

The FGSC racing action will continue next at Pax Trax Mx Park in Bunnell, FL. Another track known to be a rider and spectator favorite, Round #4 of the 2015 FL/GA Spring Championship should be full of some great racing action.
