After swapping positions several times, Haavisto would eventually take the lead and pull away just enough to keep Gee at bay. “Gee was ahead of me and we went into this corner and I went inside and was able to get under him and pull away,” said Haavisto.

#75 Joe Haavisto & #10 Greg Gee would swap the lead several times early in the race, but in the end Joe Haavisto would claim the Moto Win, but Greg Gee's 2nd Place finish was more than enough to claim the Overall Win with Haavisto taking the 2nd Spot

Despite Gee’s second place moto two finish, his 1-2 was enough to earn him the top spot on the podium, while Joe Haavisto would have to settle for second.

Richard Pelchat stayed consistent in the second moto and his 4-4 finishes would allow him to take the final spot on the Pro podium. Aaron Meyer’s impressive performance landed him in fourth overall while Myles Santaniello was on a mission after his moto one crash, taking a 8-3 finish which allowed him to round out the top five.
