Out of all the races, the Pro-am class one without
a doubt the most exciting race of the day. Ryon

on it was a three-way battle between Partee, Brad
Riley and Kirby Cooke.

it one of the most exciting races of the
night

#27 Brad Riley would take the lead in the
final lap to claim the Pro-Am Win |
The trio would swap positions for the lead numerous
times before Partee stalled his quad, which also
briefly held up Cooke in the process, and allowed
Riley to take over the lead and pull away. Riley
would hold his lead all the way to the checkers,
while Cooke would settle in with second. Nathan
Wolff would benefit from Partee’s mishap and
take third place.
In the Women’s class, Paula Shank took
her fifth straight win of the season and wrapped
up the Women’s class championship, but not
without a fight. Bailey Williams, who has been
out with injuries was back in action. Williams
flew off the line to take the holeshot, and would
lead for several laps before falling to the number
three spot that would allow Shank to take the
win, with Amanda Howe in second.
