The final edition of the 2013 Spring Fling saw some of the best racing weather we have had so far this season. The race direction was reversed, and the riders competed on the short course on Saturday. Mild winds also meant some blazing fast speeds. The 4/5 race had an average speed of 25.6 mph! Other races saw similar averages, and many racers commented on how toasted their legs were after the race due to the high speeds and many attacks.
Riders competed for the overall series title in each category. Racers had one last chance to score points in the overall series. They were allowed one drop in the series, taking their best four out of five races. April racing is heating up, with plenty of chances to race in the region all month.
