After starting on the fourth row, Ray Bulloch was charging to the front in his Polaris and was in contention for a podium finish. However, the rough track here claimed yet another victim.
“I made quite a few passes,” said Bulloch. “We were battling with some of the faster guys in front of me. Then I got into the dust and hit a rock and broke and A-arm out of the frame. That ended our day. It was tough luck. We had high hopes of bettering our fifth-place finish from last year. The kids did well. We’re here racing and that’s racing. We’ll get them next time.”
Meanwhile, Skylar Bulloch took his Arctic Cat to a second-place finish in the 700 Production Class.

“It was complete carnage out there,” said Skylar Bulloch. “I had no idea where I even finished. The track was so rough, but it was fun. There was one section that just whoops after whoops. Racing is the most fun thing ever. I love the side by sides. The Wildcat runs pretty well.”
Stockton Bulloch battled his way to a third-place finish in Production 250 in his Polaris RZR.
