RESULTS DONOTLIE
next to his opening act so to speak. All units in his camp were on the same page, and he was flourishing all throughout this tough and chewed up raceway. With the stamina to go twenty plus two, coupled with the raw speed to win a one-lap dash, it was just a matter
of time before solid overalls would loom his way. The Team Green signee would prove his worth, and reiterate why he generates the hype he does, with numerous astound- ing overall finishes. With an eighth in the 450 B portion for Supercross, he would back it up with only ascending results. A fourth
in Schoolboy 2, would be topped with a silver medal position, in the 250 B class of the SX division. For outdoors, a third in the Schoolboy 2 class, would be reassured with an excellent outing in the highly contested 250 B division, where he would claim the silver medal prize. Overall, the event was a definite success for Robertson and crew.
forward. Making his presence known at ev- ery amateur national he attends, he looked to place a stamp on his brand so to speak when loading the gates for the 2018 Winter Olympics. Contending only two classes on the SX course, he chose multiple of the toughest divisions on the circuit, with the 250 B and Schoolboy 2 class being those in which he inscribed his name. With flare like no other, and corner speed mimicking that
of those on the AMA Professional tour, he would place inside the top three, overall, for both classes respectively. Fending off the likes of Robertson, Kniffing, and Jarrett Frye, it was all he could do to keep his number 74 from blowing up, as he was on the throttle
to that high of regard. But it would manage, staying in tact for this portion of the event, and be ready to rock as the outdoor round would commence. Styling in the Florida sun- shine on this speedy motocross course, he would begin this segment strongly, claiming
a solid third in his opening division of Schoolboy two. Looking to continue the momentum rolling, the
250 and 450 B classes would be up next, and he too would eye noteworthy performances. Rocketing out of the gate, and blitzing these rugged, mangled straightaways, he would head into the corners with textbook style, hardly ever faltering all though being pressured in an aggressive manner. Lap after lap, he would
be a con- tender for the top spot of
the results board, and would walk away from the Supercross heat races with a second and seventh, respectively. He would continue to show out in the main events, placing third overall for both the 250 B, and Schoolboy 2 classes, claiming two bronze medals. His mo- mentum wouldn’t stop would the third overalls though, he would continue to impose his
will on the motocross track too. An eighth, fourth, and yet another podium ride of third, would have him leaving the track feeling accomplished.
COLTON EIGENMANN
As many hail from all parts of the country to descend on this event, many states, nations, and even continents are represented on the roster sheet prior to the commencement
of racing for this Thanksgiving holiday. It’s seemingly a melting pot of cultures, with numerous languages and ways of living are brought together under one roof so to speak. However, there are those too who are seemingly home grown, and make a short trek to the Gatorpack Cycle Park venue, with Colton Eigenmann being one of them. Calling Titusville home, he made his way to northern Florida, spending the “Turkey Day” in uniform, trading the utensils of the dinner table for a throttle and can of VP race fuel. While some in his family would call the idea crazy, he and crew would drive to the event, seeking aspirations of championships and strong finishes. And he would do just that, eyeing the 250 B limited class in particular, salivating at the thought of a championship. With four classes being registered under
his name, he would come away with four heat race finishes inside the top five, putting him with optimal gate picks as the runoffs would come to the forefront. And boy oh boy would he excel when the lights were on, taking the 250 B Limited field by storm, and lead every lap in the process. It truly was
a spectacular effort, but he was yearning
for more as he climbed aboard the stock
