“I’ve been waiting for this for a long time. I haven’t rode this good since last year. I lost my front brakes in the final lap and wasn’t able to corner too well, and Beau Baron was able to get around me,” said Mitchell on his second place finish.

H&M Motorsports’ David Haagsma put in a solid race and rounded out the Pro ATV podium. “I didn’t get the best start and it was a little tough to pass because it was a fast track and everyone was running really fast. It was still a good race and I had a lot of fun out there and I am happy to be on the podium today,” said Haagsma.

JRi Suspension’s Dillon Zimmerman didn’t get the start he was hoping for, but after pacing himself for the first half of the race, Zimmerman put in a charge and made his way to the number four spot before reaching the checkered flag.

“It was such a fast track and I was in the back of the pack off the start, but at the halfway point I started moving and I caught up to David Haagsma, who was in third, but I ran out of time and couldn’t make a pass. My Can-Am was running great out there though and had tons of speed, which was what we needed for today,” said Zimmerman.
