Diablo Energy Drink 125 Can-Am Grand Prix Debuts at Loudon Classic
80th Annual Loudon Classic (June 13, 2003) – The Diablo Energy Drink 125 Can-Am Grand Prix machines debuted at New Hampshire Int’l Speedway’s 80th Annual Loudon Classic this morning for their first session of timed practice. The event also features the top racers from the U.S. Grand Prix Riders Union (USGPRU) 125 Grand Prix Series including the 2002 USGPRU National Champion Brian Kcraget (Danville, Virginia, USA) who will compete head-to-head with 2002 Diablo Can-Am National Champion Stuart Nodell (Ajax, Ontario, CAN).
The U.S. rider Kcraget (Hon) started the weekend strong with a fast lap of 1:17.31, compared to Nodell’s (Hon) fastest lap of 1:17.70. Scott Moxey (Hon) was a close third in the afternoon practice session with a fast lap of 1:18.42, with Corey Sherman (Hon) and Yvan Desy (Hon) in the 1:20 range. Rounding out the top five in practice was John Dempsey at a 1:19.00.
Several Loudon 125cc class regulars have yet to practice, but are expected to move to the front of the time charts very quickly on Saturday morning. Four women are also entered in this weekend’s Diablo 125 Can-Am “Intercontinental” Grand Prix, with female representatives from Canada and America. Debra Kuick (Yam) from California was fastest today at 1:24.20, followed by Canadian Angela Hiba (Hon) at 1:25.30.
Many riders had trouble with the changing track conditions. The weather was partially cloudy most of the day with occasional light showers. As the weather improves Sunday, lap times are expected to come closer together, and for the 30-plus-rider field to provide one of the best races of the weekend.
