NE EDT Racing Series Round 2 - Pine Lake Ashtabula, Ohio June 7, 2014

The last race of the day was the Blood Enterprises NE EDT Pro Class. Nathan Wolff was the top qualifier aboard his Custom Axis / Maul-tech ATV / Walsh TRX450r and the first to line up. Nathan was followed by Rummage aboard his TRE / Victory Motorsports / Element 44 Honda TRX450r at the line next. As all 15 Pro riders followed and came to the line and with the $150 Quadified Racing Engines Holeshot up for grabs, it was Riley who crossed the line first to grab the Quadified Racing Engines Holeshot Award and the early race lead. Riley was chased through the first corner by Rummage, Bures, and the rest of the pack.

With an early race collision that a lot of the early top riders getting caught up in allowed Medlin, Wolff, and Brian Demarmels to move up quickly after their mid pack start and also allowed the race leader Riley an open track to put down some of the fastest lap times of the day. Rummage was having to deal with a broken sub-frame during the race and this also allowed Riley to pull away from the pack for a comfortable commanding lead and leave the rest of the pro riders fight for the final spots on the podium. At about the half way point of the 20-lap feature it was Riley, Rummage, Bures, Wolff and Pro Rookie Brian Demarmels the top 5 riders.

Pro Rookie rider Brian Demarmels was at the top of his game up to the last portion of the race and proved that he belonged with some of the country’s fastest ATV TT riders on one of the most physically challenging TT tracks in the series as he ran in the top 5 for most of the race. Having getting caught up in the early race collision, Ace was able to put his head down and slowly moved up through the pack to put himself into the top 5 towards the end of the race.
