Norman races to victory at the 100’s MC AMA National Hare & Hound



















This past weekend Lucerne Valley played host to the final round of the
2011 AMA National Hare and Hound series. Kendall Norman's performance
was a near duplicate of his previous race just 2 weeks before where he
took his Honda CRF450X to yet another wire to wire victory. The 100’s MC
hosted one of the most unique events for the final of the 9 round
series. The course consisted of 4 individual loops, totaling 95 miles of
the gnarliest, rockiest terrain in Lucerne Valley. Kendall’s day
started with a monster holeshot leading the competition through the bomb
run and finishing the first loop with a 20 second lead over 2nd place.
The second loop, Kendall was able to put a sizable gap on the field and
start his runaway. The third loop was the longest loop of 40 miles. By
this point Kendall had put over 3 minutes on the nearest competition and
maintained that gap throughout the
4th and final loop of the race.



Congratulations are also in order for JCR/Honda teammates, David Kamo
for a solid 5th place coming from behind, Colton Udall who overcame a
big crash to finish 11th overall. Quinn Cody who was battling at the
front of the race would not be so fortunate after a collision with a
boulder abruptly ended his race.



After the dominating race Kendall had this to say: “I had a good day. I
had a couple bobbles during the race but fortunately I was able to run
away from the field. The 100’s MC did a good job with the course, it was
fun and challenging. Big thanks to my pit crew who did an awesome job.”

“In Off-Road racing it’s all about perseverance and overcoming the
challenges that we face. We thrive on overcoming those obstacles and
that is what makes winning feel so great. Today Kendall overcame those
challenges and raced like the champion that he is. He was focused and
very determined. I am very proud of our Team for a fantastic job well
done. Congratulations to Kendall and our race support staff for all
their hard work.”
