It seems Kocinski's returned to his roots and is riding a bit of vintage flat track on a Knight framed Honda 2 STROKE. He's still as stylish as ever going by this shot from Perris Rcwy on June 11.
#3 John Kocinski added another notch on his flat track gun in the Vintage 250cc-360cc expert class. Kocinski also had the overall fastest lap time of the evening at 14.54/100 seconds. Will Kocinski go undefeated for the rest of the season?and July 11
Jeff Lessley had the fastest reaction time off the line in the Vintage 2-Stroke 250-360 Expert class. However just before turn one John Kocinski shot to the lead, made himself real wide and stretched his throttle cable. Kocinski having attained his goal of setting the overall track record on the Perris ΒΌ mile oval on the second lap of his heat race at 14.28 seconds wanted more and was looking to break the fourteen second barrier. But on this day the track wasn't as good in the main as it was in the heat race and Kocinski had to settle for the main event victory and the track record. Still a major accomplishment on a 250cc thirty-five year old motorcycle, Lessley, Nick Armstrong, Ryan Gifford and Jim Wood would follow Kocinski home in that order. It has been rumored that Kocinski is an alien but as yet there has been no DNA test to prove it.
