“I just love really rough tracks, it separates everyone. A lot of people can go fast, but it separates them when you throw a bunch of sand whoops in between them, which makes things real. I only wish that Beau Baron would have finished the race,” said Row after the win.

Sparks Racing’s David Haagsma finished in the second spot this weekend. After grabbing the holeshot with his Sparks engine, he didn’t notice the faster line in the track, which dropped him back into the third position.

“I got a great start with my Sparks Engine and Maxxis tires, everything hooked up and then I came to the third corner and there were already some new lines opening up. I got passed by two guys right there and knew I had some work cut out for me,” said Haagsma after his second place finish.
