The annual CMA event, the Norm Carr Classic National Championship took place on Saturday August 8th.
With a large field of Flat track, ATV, Junior flat track riders, and the additional smaller class of speedway, all producing a great event for an ever-enthusiastic crowd!
Unfortunately, some delays caused by some crashes and the water truck having problems during the event, pushed it into the late evening hours, but the wait was worth it!
With the absense of Joe Heye and John Bennett, the four man speedway field of Rob Dixon, Gary Moody, Terry Rideout and Jeff Orosz, produced some close entertaining racing!
Heat 1:
Jeff Orosz got a flying start ahead of Rob Dixon into corner 1, with Terry Rideout being pushed by Gary Moody for the first lap. Rob Dixon pushed hard and looked very fast as he inched his way toward Orosz, but Orosz's pace was too much, and he flew into grab the first checkered flag of the night. Terry Rideout took a comfortable third place ahead of slower paced Gary Moody.
Heat 2:
Terry Rideout got a flyer from the inside gate to enter the first corner ahead of the pack, but the aggressive pace of Orosz and Dixon was too much, as they passed Rideout out of turn 2, Dixon held the throttle wide open and was side by side with Orosz into turn 3 and for the next two laps, Terry Rideout and Gary Moody had a great view of this battle as they followed behind the battling pair. On lap four Jeff Orosz pulled away to take the second checkered flag of the night!
Final:
The final event was won from the tapes for Jeff Orosz, Rob Dixon did all he could to reel Orosz in, while having Terry Rideout pushing him. Gary Moody again showed his love for the speedway and his dedication to the second year of riding at the 1/2 mile as he followed, Rideout, Dixon and Orosz to the finishing line for the last time.
