Tyler Bowers wins Lites
AURORA, Ill. (January 25, 2008) – The Broadbent Arena at the Kentucky State Fair Grounds played host to Toyota AMA Arenacross Series tonight. The building treated Arenacross riders to a much larger track than normal. In the AMA Arenacross class Tom Hofmaster grabbed the Toyota Certified Used Vehicle $200 hole shot award and led several laps with points leader Chad Johnson running second and Kentucky’s Tyler Bowers in third. Kelly Smith was forced to detour around a start crash and worked his way to third. Bower’s second place finish gave Chad Johnson a five point gain on Smith. Monster Kawasaki rider Brock Sellards finished eighth after going down several times in the main event.
During the AMA Arenacross Lites class local favorite, Tyler Bowers, blistered the field leading nearly every lap. Jimmy Albertson and Shane Sewell finished out the podium.
Racing returns to the Broadbent Arena tomorrow at 7:30 PM.
