The 2015 Fall Championship racing continues at Pax Trax Mx Park! Round #2 of the 2015 FGSC Fall Championship showcased the high-flying talents of some of Florida's top riders. Great weather, great competition, and a well groomed motocross track made for a fun day of intense racing. Racers and spectators were also able to enjoy some tasty food from Terranova's Italian Restaurant, who set up shop in the Pax Snax to serve food.
Racing in THREE classes on the Main Track at Pax was Tristan Lane (KAW #11), who took the win in all three! Tristan will no doubt be racing professionally in the near future, as his speed and skill is clearly evident to anyone watching. Tristan rode smoothly to the win in the 250 A, 450 A, and Open Money classes. Florida MOTO News will certainly be keeping track of this young man as he heads towards a professional career in motocross.
The 250 C class is usually always a good place to watch some great moto battles, and this race was no exception. Although many would battle, only ONE rider would come away with the win, and the rider was Derek Hopkins (KAW #264). Hopkins charged hard all day, getting the holeshot in the second moto of both the 250 C and D-C Unlimited classes. His efforts were rewarded with the overall WIN in both classes.
The smaller 65cc bikes also took to the main track to race, and show their ability to navigate the big bike course. In both the 65cc Advanced class and the 65cc 7-9 class, it was Michael Derico (COB #818) who would be victorious. Michael would take the win in both with 1-1 moto scores.
The intense racing didn't stop on the Main Track. The Pax Trax PeeWee Track was full of exciting racing action! Calen Myers (KTM #73) was the winner in the 50cc 4-6 class, with 1-1 moto scores. Little Colton Derico (COB #88) would also win both motos in the 50cc Beginner class, taking home the overall win and a nice trophy. Nathan Jeffery (KTM #51) rode well, winning all his motos, and taking the win in the 50cc 7-9 and 50cc Advanced classes.
