Oak Hill Amateur Fantasy Report
The 33rd Annual Answer Pro Taper GNC International Motocross Final presented by MotoSport.com wrapped up in Texas with a few surprises.
The top 3 overall winners in the 250A Pro went to #44 Christian Craig, followed up by #128 Dean Wilson and #385 Tyler Sjoberg. In the 250B Class the top 3 overall finishes went to #45 Lance Vincent with #312 Jason Anderson taking 2nd and #43 Eli Tomac rounding out that final podium spot. With the rest of the field claiming their final results, some team managers were left with a sense of accomplishment, and maybe others with a bit of rider selection remorse. Which ever the case may be the results are in and we have some team managers who deserve a little shout out.
Leading off the Series and getting the overall win at Oak Hill goes to Bone Head Racing with 130 points. Man, this guy must be relying on his magic 8-Ball to make his picks, or maybe he lives on VurbMoto.com, ingesting their info faster than Kobayashi can slam a frankfurter. Whatever Bone Head Racing is doing, he’s looking to be the one to beat.
Fending off a close finish and taking the 2nd place podium spot was MR Racing with 120 points. His team name says it all. To be able to get 4 of your 8 picks to podium is definitely the recipe for success in fantasy racing.
And bar dragging around the last corner to get the final podium spot, Team BrocH182 climbs the steps to take home 3rd with 119 points. Not much can be said about Broc, other than, “don’t let him by”. When it’s the last lap and the pit board comes out telling you to put your head down, BrocH182 will run you down and take away your lime light. With such a close point spread within the top 10 runners, nobody can afford to loose any spots.
A huge congratulation goes out to this week winners in our second round of the VurbMoto.com Amateur Fantasy Motocross. With the series only including 5 of the amateur nationals we should expect some tight racing with some close calls.
Until next time, don’t forget that we will have a break until the next race. So do your homework and get your picks in by 8am (PST) April 15, 2009.
