MTA 2-STROKE CHAMPIONSHIP

The MTA Two-Stroke Championship had its biggest turnout ever this weekend at Glen Helen Raceway. As always the Pro turnout was healthy, owning much to the LA Sleeve $8000 purse. But sportsman riders tuned out, too, proving once again that the two-stroke underground is alive and waiting for any excuse to surface.

Ryan Surratt has always been a two-stroke rider at heart. He put together a 4-1 score to take home first overall.
