Shoreham Regional National
This past weekend was the Shoreham Regional National for the 2010 season. It was definitely a must see if you are a TLI fan. This being the first race the team hit since making that huge statement at the Grands, you had to know it would be awesome. TLI was ready to pick up right where they left off, and continue to be unstoppable. Starting Friday off with a TLI/Standard clinic which turned out real well, many of the riders who attended the clinic were winners during the weekend. Saturday was two races, the 2009 Regional Championship followed by the 2010 Regional Qualifier (Day 1). Sunday only consisted of the 2010 Regional Qualifier (Day 2).
Dugan Started everything off when he and Bivona drew the same moto for Day 1. With a ridiculous first straight, Dugan was out in front every race which meant Bivona had to play catch-up the entire weekend. This made the 26-34 Expert class the most exciting races of the weekend. Saturday's 2 moto system was split between Dugan and Bivona making the main event something you can not miss. Once again Dugan showed his uncanny ability to get out in front and was able to shut down Bivona for the entire race therefore claiming the victory and Bivona had to settle for the second.
Next up was Kilcullen....Talk about domination !!! The photo above represents the closest anyone was to him the entire weekend. The 19-25 Expert class just may be one of the hardest classes out there, but that wasn't going to be an issue this weekend. Kilcullen started Saturday off with a win in both motos, pretty much coasting his way to victory in both instances. When it came to the main, nothing changed...Kilcullen ripped down the gate and was way in front by the first turn, he continued to ride his own race and just expanded his lead as the race went on. Finishing with a real solid perfect for the day.
If you are on the inside of Dugan on the first gate, you have to take advantage of it and get as close to him as possible before the first turn. Only problem is that means you would have to go almost as fast as him in the process. That explains the look on Bivona's face heading into the first turn in the picture above. This might be the fastest he has ever gone into the first turn in his entire life. So Sunday being a three moto system that meant there was an extra race to run. First moto Dugan held off Bivona for the win, but Bivona prevailed in the next two. This meant that up until this point Dugan and Bivona each had three wins and it would come down to the main on Sunday for a tie-breaker. Wouldn't you know it Dugan tears down the gate and enters the first turn in the lead and once again Bivona had to make moves to try and close this one out. Exiting the third turn and hitting the Stairway almost simultaneously Bivona was able to get the inside line leading into the next turn, ultimately taking the lead and barely holding Dugan off for the win. Definitely and exciting race to see, just wait until this spring when Dugan, Bivona, and Kilcullen will all be in the same class.
Sunday was more of the same for Mike Kilcullen, on Saturday he was nothing but perfect and wanted to continue the streak for Sunday as well. In all three of the motos, Kilcullen was able to take a significant lead and hold down the wins. So this left him with a perfect in Saturday's race, and three moto wins for Sunday. Now it was only one race left to block him from earning the maximum points possible for a race weekend. Kilcullen was determined to complete this perfect weekend and it was about to get so real. Out of the gate Rob Reese seemed to have a great start and was going to give Kilcullen a run for his money. After the Dragons back, Kilcullen decided to turn on the jets and pull away to race his own race. Completing a flawless lap in the Main to take the win was a fitting end to a flawless weekend.
