Nicol is fastest man of the night – again – at Fast Fridays Motorcycle Speedway

Speedway racing action continued in week seven on June 20 at Fast Fridays Motorcycle Speedway in Auburn. Excellent weather greeted fans on this perfect night. Broc Nicol was the fastest man of the night and won the scratch main event again, his fourth of the season. Only Billy Janniro and Nicol have won scratch main events so far. Janniro has tallied three scratch main event wins. Nicol was perfect in the scratch program, also winning his heat race and semifinal. Lining up for the night's finale, Nicol drew lane 3, sitting next to Janniro in lane 4, with Russell Green in lane 2 and Charlie Trana in lane 1. Nicol got the hole shot and looked back just to check on the competition. Nicol increased his lead as each lap passed until he crossed the finish line with close to 20 yards of comfort. Trana was second, Green was third and Janniro was fourth. Green registered his second handicap main event win of the season. Green, riding off the 20-yard line, was fourth in his heat and won his semifinal. Green got out ahead early in the six-lap race, followed closely by Trana, who starts on the 30-yard line. Close behind him was Nicol, the reigning AMA National Speedway champ, who was waiting for a mistake that never came. Trana was second and Nicol third. Making her way to the winner's podium in the Support Division for the first time this season was Catherine Moore, a tough rider who has been on a speedway bike since she started riding in the junior divisions five years ago. She has worked her way up through the ranks and has greatly improved this season. She races each week at Fast Fridays along with older brother and first division rider Gregory Moore. Each followed their father Glenn Moore into the sport. Moore also won her heat races. In the main event, Moore led tape to tape for the win. Hunter Castillo was second and Cody Aker was third. The Team Challenge Series tie was finally broken in the third of six rounds, with the Law Tigers pulling ahead 28-26 over IFC Financial. The Law Tigers scored 10 points and IFC Financial eight in round three. For the Law Tigers, Green and Gregory Moore picked up wins and three points each, Janniro added two points and Daniel Faria and Timmy Dion chipped in one point each. For IFC Financial, Nicol picked up a win and three points, Wilbur Hancock and Tisiah Prout added two each and Chase Kangas scored one point. The competition has been tight, and it looks like it could be close all season as the teams meet three more times. The 250cc D1 main event was won by the seemingly unbeatable Brady Landon. Always on the gas, Landon never lets up from start to finish line. The win was Landon's second in a row. Wesley Rearick was second in the main and Jameson Hutchinson was third. Landon also won all his heat races. The 250cc D2 main event was won by Gracie Janniro for the second week in a row. Even handicapped on the 50-yard line by referee Steve Lucero, the additional yardage did not slow her down; it just took a little more time to get to the lead. Janniro was followed by Baylee Evans-Seeley in second. Logan Kerr won the 150cc D1 main event for the first time since being bumped up a division. Kerr won the 150cc D2 main event in week four. Gavin Evans-Seeley was second in the main, and Zander Schroeder was third. Mason Howell won the 150cc D2 main event, Leeann Emerson was second and Hank Hanaway was third. Zeva Schroeder won the 150cc D3 main event, followed by Ryder Faria in second and William Bruce in third. This week, Fast Fridays' version of endurance racing comes to the track in the form of a grueling 25-lap main event. Racing on bikes only meant to go six laps at most, this is quite a feat for rider and motorcycle. See who will be this year's Fast Fridays Motorcycle Speedway, "Iron Man."Brady Landon won for the second week in a row win in the Youth 250cc D1 main event. Landon dominated the division with wins in all his heat races.
