Countdown to KROC…Flashback 1997

Fast forward to 1997. I have a bit of a gap in my coverage of the last couple of years. Perhaps if you have some photos or Raceway News issues you would like to contribute to the cause please let me know at the comment section below. Some interesting names are beginning to appear in the KROC results.  Riders like James Stewart, who went 1-1 in 85cc 10-11 and 1-1 in the supermini class, and Jason Lawrence 7th overall 85 10-11.  Ben Riddle defeated Travis Pastrana…yes that Travis Pastrana in 125″B” class racing. The 125 Expert podium was Damon Huffman, Ricky Carmichael, and Nick Wey 1,2,3 and 250 Expert class results saw Jeff Emig, Ryan Hughes, and Jean Sebastien Roy finish first through third. Josh Woods took home a brand new KX courtesy of Woodbridge Powersports in the Ironman Classic event.

Enjoy some highlights below.
