“We just put in solid work and made it happen. I am definitely pumped on it. Last year was a tough year for me, but this year I am back on my Honda and it’s the best quad out there in my opinion. I can not wait to get the year going,” stated Musick. Indeed, the 2016 season looks promising for Musick as he chases the Pro Am championship.
Westley Wolfe, a rookie to the Pro Am class, put in an extremely impressive ride to score second place. Wolfe took the win in his heat race and third in the second moto.

“It was my first true Pro Am race. I ran Daytona and got third there, but that is nothing compared to a national. It definitely felt good. I am going to go home, train harder then ever, and be ready for Muddy Creek,” said Wolfe.
Rounding out the Pro Am podium was the number eight of Cam Covil, who put in a phenomenal comeback ride after a first moto crash.

“The first moto I crashed in the first
corner after pulling the holeshot, and came from
dead last back to third. Second moto I got another
good start and lead most of the race. We will
be back for Muddy Creek in the center of the box,”
said Covil.
Cole Sepesi went 2-4 for fourth overall and Root
River Racing’s Sam Rowe took fifth overall.
