Trying his best to keep Jess Pettis at bay, it was a matter of staying primal as the race would drag on.

best to get the front wheel ahead of his outside combatant, he would storm into the first turn and the sequences that followed. Never letting the front wheel drop throughout the whoop section, he would actually shift into fourth gear as both sections were completed. Using every ounce of power this machine possessed, he would swivel his way around
the circuit, inching away steadily from Marchbanks behind. He saw the green hue of the machine in his proximity, when taking a look over his shoulder, but continued to reach as the laps went on. Seventh was his for the taking on the final lap, and a pleased contentment would run throughout his camp upon exit of the raceway.
