PRO ATV MOTO TWO
Joe Byrd - Honda TRX 450R ATV Pro Holeshot
Joe Byrd's DASA Racing Powered Honda grabbed the ATVriders.com Holeshot Award in Moto 2 followed by Dustin Wimmer, Josh Upperman, and Harold Goodman

Byrd came out swinging for the second moto, grabbing the ATVRiders.com Holeshot Award. His charge was short lived, however, as Wimmer made a quick move to the inside on lap two to steal the lead. From there, the lanky Center Valley, Pa. resident put lap after perfect lap together and gradually pulled away from Byrd.

Harold Goodman - Honda TRX 450R ATV
In Moto 2, Byrd's lead would be short lived with Wimmer making the pass in lap 2 and pulling away to over a 9 second lead at the checkered flag as Wimmer was flying high on his Suzuki LT-R450 Quad Racer
Rage ATV's Harold Goodman held the 3rd spot from start to finish to secure himself a spot on the Podium for the 1st time since Southwick in 2004, and he is currently tied for 6th in points with Jeremy Lawson

Meanwhile, the racing behind them was intense. Goodman was riding unchallenged in third while a mammoth battle ensued between the fourth, fifth, and sixth positions between John Natalie Jr. (No. 13 Can-Am), Josh Creamer (No. 9 Monster Energy Kawasaki) and Jeremy Lawson (No. 16 Team Epic/Can-Am). At one point Creamer tried to force a pass in the rhythm section and collided with Natalie in the air. Both riders rode away from the collision, and Lawson took the position.
