Arno Jr has finally mastered his new Kawasaki
KFX450R ride & earned himself a spot
on the Podium, which surely won't be his
last |
In moto two, Santaniello got off to a much better
start, and soon was holding down the number two
position. Despite pressure from Michael Pilotte,
Santaniello was able to hold his position all
the way to the checkered flag. Santaniello’s
4-2 finish was enough to put him in second place
overall.
Rocco Arno, Jr. ran two consistent motos in the
Open Pro class. In moto one, Arno was off to a
good start and soon worked his way to the number
two spot. Although Arno would challenge Haavisto
at one point, he was not able to take over the
lead, leaving him to settle for second place.
In the second Pro moto, Arno was in mid pack off
the start, but quickly worked himself up to the
number four position where he would stay all the
way to the checkered flag. Arno’s 2-4 would
give him the final spot on the podium.
Vincent Mofford would put in to solid motos to
finish in fourth overall, while Can-Am’s
Matt Pomeroy would round out the top five. KTM’s
Nate Morello encountered mechanical issues in
the first Pro Moto, which had a big impact on
his results and leaving him with eighth overall.
Michael Pilotte also encountered mechanical issues
in the first moto, causing him to DNF and giving
him a tenth place overall, while Aaron Meyer broke
his chain in moto two, sending him to eleventh
place overall.

Michael Pilotte made the pass for the
lead when he dove into the inside of a
turn on #74 Aaron Meyer, but he drifted
into the outside lane bumping Meyer over
the berm, which allowed Pilotte to take
over the lead with Meyer finishing in
2nd |
