Tampa, FL (1/23/10) Racing hasn’t been his thing this season. Lionel was knocked out first round of the bracket in a Chicago-style race. Putting on a decent freestyle landed him with a 7th place finish. And a decent weekend it was with no major damage to repair before Orlando.
Orlando, FL (1/30/10) A hometown event makes for more pressure, but Lionel was giving it all he had. Quick off the line in racing was what everyone wanted to see, but the final turn had him sliding in the corner, losing his lead and going out first round. Max D was repaired in time, keeping Lionel from coming back as fastest loser. Things weren’t in his favor in freestyle. Halfway through his time, the front steering broke. He tried to continue, but the next hit tore apart the rear steer, too. The night ended for him with 12th place in freestyle.
Tampa, FL (2/6/10) Racing wasn’t in his cards, but freestyle was. He came out to please the crowd with some big air. And big air he got before his run ended with a roll over. A lucky fan received the K& N flag that was flying on the back of his truck during the event. He didn’t win freestyle, but he was happy placing 5th.
