Early in the day during qualifiers and heat races, Josh Upperman and Chad Wienen locked wheels during their heat race, which sent the pair to the LCQ. As the gate dropped for the LCQ, Upperman did what he does best and grabbed the holeshot, while Chad Wienen was in fourth off the start.

Wienen quickly made his way into second and then chased down Upperman. Wienen followed Upperman closely and after just a couple of laps, Wienen took the lead as the white flag waved. Wienen went on to take the LCQ win with Upperman in second. “It was a rough start to the day, but I’m fired up and ready to go for the main,” said Wienen.

When the gate dropped for the first-ever Daytona ATV SX Pro Main event, the holeshot went to John Natalie, and he was followed closely by Jeffrey Rastrelli and Thomas Brown.

Baldwin Motorsports’ John Natalie, who had made some bold statements about his switch to Baldwin earlier in the year, was determined to make history as the first ever ATV SX winner and took advantage of his holeshot as he pulled a slight lead over his competitors.

Jeffrey Rastrelli did close in on Natalie in the third lap and went for a pass but was unable to make it happen; and when Rastrelli crashed later on, it gave Natalie a bit of a breather but not for long. Soon Joel Hetrick closed in and went for a pass but was also unable to make it happen. Natalie kept a one second lead and held it all the way to the checkered flag making his dream of making Daytona history a reality.

“I am extremely pumped. It’s Daytona, the land of speed! I knew that getting the holeshot here was key and Baldwin had everything set up so good, we just did it! It made my job a lot easier. I did have to slow down a bit when we got into lap traffic, but it worked out great today. Mark Baldwin and Maxxis had me hooked up today and I didn’t have to work too hard to get that holeshot. I am first ever to win at Daytona and that’s one record that can’t be broken. I can’t thank the Daytona Motorsports enough for giving us this opportunity. All these guys made the trip down here and hopefully this is setting a brighter future for everyone,” said Natalie.
