Young came screaming off the line to obtain the holeshot and lead start to finish of the eight-lap race. He never looked back for the remaining laps, even with the pressure of Paolella behind him trying to pressure him into a mistake.

“This year has been huge for me. It’s been so frustrating at times with a lot of mechanical issues and I even rode one of Hickson’s ATV’s at Jolly Roger to obtain as many points as possible. It was an up and down season for me and I’m just super pumped and thankful to come away with the championship. We worked really hard from the beginning to the end of this season and we are all super happy with the outcome of being the 2014 Pro champ,” said Young.
