ENGLISHTOWN, NJ

The 2010 version of the D6 Ultimate Series presented by MGX Unlimited rolled into Old Bridge Township's Raceway Park on June 27 for round six. This 10-race series takes place at nine different tracks over the course of the summer and has become one of the most well-attended and popular series of events in the Northeast. An early-summer heat wave meant temperatures in the mid 90s and blazing sun all day long, so only the most fit riders would survive. The Raceway Park track staff kept the water truck throughout the day and, despite some dusty sections, the track remained excellent all day long. And the star of the day was Lowell Spangler (427, above).

The first 450 A moto began with Ocean County Powersports-backed Suzuki pilot Frankie Lettieri out front, with Team Green Kawasaki jockey Spangler and KTM rider Bryan Wallace (388, above) hot on his heels. When the pack popped into view from the back of the track, Spangler had gone around Lettieri, who was now in second. A couple of laps in, it was all Spangler, and Wallace had gotten by Lettieri into second, while the Cycle House Honda-mounted Anthony Roth was working his way up and challenging Lettieri. Then Lettieri had bike problems and tallied a DNF. At the checkered flag, it was Spangler, Wallace, Roth, William Duffy and Ronnie Stewart (606, below) comprising the top five.

The second 450 A moto began with KTM-mounted Ryan Gainey grabbing the early lead, over first-moto winner Spangler. In the back section of the track, Spangler got by Gainey, and then he began to stretch out his lead. Early on, the running order was Spangler, Stewart, Gainey and Wallace.

Wallace got by his Mount Holly Powersports teammate and into third, and at the end of the moto it was Spangler, Stewart, Wallace, Broc Schmelyon and Duffy rounding out the top five.

Spangler (1-1) garnered the overall, followed by Wallace (2-3), Stewart (5-2), Duffy (4-5) and Roth (3-6).

KX250 two-stroke-mounted Kerry Kaminskie grabbed the holeshot in the first 250 A moto. Lettieri quickly passed Kaminskie, with Spangler and Duffy in tow. Early on, Spangler was hot on Lettieri's heels, and he got around for the pass. By that point, Schmelyon was joining in the mix and he, too, would get around Lettieri. At moto's end, it was Spangler, Schmelyon, Lettieri, Duffy and Stewart.

Suzuki-mounted Addison Kramer grabbed the holeshot in moto two, but his lead was short-lived, as Spangler got by on the first lap and set the pace out front. Stewart settled into second, and Lettieri and Schmelyon were battling over the number-three spot. At moto's end, it was Spangler, Stewart, Schmelyon, Duffy and Wallace comprising the top five.

Spangler was undefeated on  the day, gave this 1-1 tally gave him another overall victory. He was followed by Schmelyon (2-3), Stewart (5-2), Duffy (4-4) and Lettieri (3-6).
