Vance Earl: Racing Update

 

We were at County Line in Taylorsville, NC.  It had rained for a few days, making the woods and motocross perfect terrain.

The guys had a 4.3 mile loop counting the motocross.  I got a good start and kept pushing.  I was 2nd on the first lap, just a few seconds behind Brian Henson.  We rode hard all day. When Brian pitted, I made up even more time, putting me right on him.   There was no dust for a change and my bike was working great. I finally got around him and held the lead for a while, in the woods.  We battled back and forth, having a great ride.  We came out onto the motocross right on each other.  Unable to pass him, I stayed with him finishing 3 seconds behind him in 2nd Overall.  We had a great time.

Thanks to all my sponsors.  I couldn't do it without you guys.
