Scott Harwell and Brian Stokes each won a Suzuki-contingency-paying CCS sprint race Sunday at Summit Point Raceway in Summit Point, West Virginia.

Arclight Suzuki’s Harwell and Bettencourt Suzuki’s Jeff Wood raced closely for all seven laps of the Middleweight Supersport final. Harwell took the lead on the brakes for turn one with less than two laps to go and was able to hold off a last-lap push by Wood to win by a small margin. Stokes came on strong late but finished third on his Vesrah Suzuki.

Several of the Formula USA professionals present at Summit Point – like Michael Barnes, Scott Greenwood and Robert Jensen – did not run the Middleweight Supersport race because no contingency money was available for their Yamahas.

Greenwood and Jensen brought their Suzuki GSX-R750s out in Heavyweight Supersport, however, to race with Stokes and Harwell.

Stokes was out front early and often. Harwell passed Stokes a few times, but as the seven-lap race wore on, the pace grew quicker and Harwell suddenly found himself out of gearing.

Despite staying up all night to replace the head gasket on his Suzuki, Stokes was able to win by two bikelengths over Harwell.

Riding a 2002-model Suzuki GSX-R750, Jensen came from row seven of the grid, passed Greenwood for third on the last lap and nearly passed Harwell for second, coming up half-a-bikelength short at the checkered flag. Greenwood finished fourth.

Acid Cigars’ Scott Moxey came from row six of the grid in the 125cc Grand Prix race, took the lead on lap three and then pulled away to win the seven-lap event by over five seconds. Garrett Carter and Todd Puckett battled each other for the length of the race with Carter finishing second, ahead of Puckett. Steve Gorrell was a very close fourth.

All but one of the 25 machines in the 125cc GP were RS Hondas, including the top 16 finishers.
