Sam Yokley earned his second consecutive
championship after coming into the event with
just a one-point lead. He won three races
this year and followed that up with two additional
podiums. His RT Pro components helped him
cope with the difficult course that featured
ruts, trees, and a motocross course.

Sam Yokley claimed his 5th straight
podium finish in the 2nd spot, which
was enough to clinch the championship
by one point

“This was a great race and I made it through
and won the championship,” said Yokley. “RT
Pro helped me out a lot this year. They gave
me great parts and kept me running competitively.
Without the high clearance arms, you’ll catch
rocks and stumps and just rip them off. We
had some good racing this year.”
Stracham, who is paralyzed from the waist
down, ran an RT Pro-built Polaris Ace equipped
with hand controls all season. Stracham finished
fourth in points and earned two podiums during
the season.
