AMA ATV Haresramble Racing Series - Round 4 - Miles Mountain

Round # 4 was located at Miles Mountain in Elkland, Pennsylvania. The race had the series biggest turnout thus far with 260 ATV racers. It had been raining throughout the week and race day would not be any different. With temps in the high 80s and the sun shining for the morning race, the afternoon lineup proved to be much different as the dark clouds rolled in the rain and cool air came with them.

The drops starting falling as the flag was about to drop. With the course already muddy and water running down the hills, the rain did not help the condition of the course. GNCC Pro's Chris Borich, Brandon Sommers, Jarrod McClure, Jeffrey Pickens, and Tom Wright were all in attendance vying for the $3,000 Pro purse that was up for grabs. 22 riders signed up for a shot at the money.
