To update last Thursday’s post about the Bilek Racing Silver State 300, our own Jack McCormick and Todd Romano — racing on the Monster Energy Team Green Kawasaki KX 450 — took second place in their division and 20th overall in Saturday’s race (click here for downloadable race results).
Finishing second was no simple task. With 60 miles to go to the finish line, Jack handed off the Kawasaki KX 450 to Todd, who worked hard to make up a 15-minute gap to the first place team of Warren Walcher, Eric Perry and Pete Prodromides. According to Todd, he was successfully closing in on first when he got trapped in the silt behind David Scott and Cody Mitchell’s PRO Quad. Long story short, Todd went from doing 60 miles per hour down to around 15 and could barley see anything in front of his bike.
At the end of the day, Todd and Jack fought a great battle on a course the traversed high elevation summits and allowed for some incredibly high speeds along the way. Of course, none of this would have been possible were it not for our sponsors, Kawasaki Team Green and Twisted Wrenches, along with everyone on our pit crew.
