Taylor Kiser - Yamaha YFZ450X ATV
Yamaha's #2 Taylor Kiser
Yamaha/Ballance Racing’s Taylor Kiser was in fifth in the first lap, but challenged Chris Bithell and took over the number four spot just before the second lap. Kiser and Bithell would continue to battle, but Kiser would not be able to hold Bithell off. Kiser was able to take over the number four spot in the final lap after Chris Borich encountered issues and fell off the pace and that allowed Kiser to finish in the number four spot.

Yamaha's #2 Taylor Kiser claimed the 4th spot ahead of #1 Chris Borich rounding out the Top 5 with a flat rear tire

Chris Borich - Suzuki LTR450 ATV
#1 Chris Borich suffered flat tire, which kept him from putting on a last lap charge for the podium, which cut Borich's points lead down to 27 points
DWT’s Chris Borich followed leaders Adam McGill and Brian Wolf for two laps, but was never able to close in to take over the lead. Borich would then encounter issues that looked to be in the way of a flat tire. Borich would fall back to finish in fifth place, but still holds a rather commanding points lead.

KTM’s Bryan Cook was going for the holeshot, but was shut down by Jarrod McClure. Cook held second for a little while before dropping back. Cook was holding down a solid seventh after losing a battle to Ockerman early in the race, but Cook came back strong and was able to reclaim sixth place before reaching the checkered flag.

Donald Ockerman battled it out with Bryan Cook for most of the first lap and was finally able to get by and take over the number six spot in lap two. Ockerman held his position for a while, but Cook kept pressuring him and Ockerman fell back for a seventh place finish.

The battle for the 6th spot was intense betweeen KTM's Bryan Cook & Jet Suspension's Donald Ockerman as they swapped the spot back and forth with the pair running together for nearly the entire race, but in the end, it was GBC's Bryan Cook taking the 6th place finish followed by Donald Ockerman only a few seconds back in 7th place

Kevin Yoho was in eighth place going into the first lap and stayed in that position for the entire race, taking eighth at the checkered flag.

Yokely Racing’s Jarrod McClure edged out Bryan Cook to grab the holeshot. McClure led briefly until a flat tire took the wind out of his sails and was dead last going into the first lap, but McClure put the hammer down and charged into the top ten by the second lap. Pickens and McClure continued to battle and swapped positions again before McClure was able to get ahead and pull away for a ninth place finish.

Johnny Gallagher worked his way up from eleventh place to ninth by the second lap, and in the final lap he was able to overtake Jeff Pickens to round out the top ten at the finish line.

Jeff Pickens battled it out with McClure, but fell back from ninth to eleventh place before the end of the second lap. Pickens and McClure would continue to battle and Pickens would take back tenth in the next lap. Pickens fought hard, but fell back again and eventually would end his day just outside of the top ten in the number eleven spot.

Mark Notman started out in the number ten spot, but fell back to twelfth and was never able to recover any positions.
