2015 EDT Racing Round #1 - Wadesboro, NC Perimeter Park Motorsports May 29, 2015

The Pro-Am unlimited class had an equal amount of riders as the Pro class and with the opportunity to run a bigger engine or modified ATV, the racing action would be fast and furious!

Wolff Motorsports / DASA / Rath Racing’s Nathan Wolff was a prime candidate for the top of the podium as he came out of the holeshot neat the front of the pack with a good start. Wolff trailed Michael Houghton who took the holeshot and would not let Houghton out of his sights for the first few laps as he sized him up and read his lines. Wolff finally snuck in a very quick pass around the one-eighty bermed corner as Houghton went high Wolff slid in on the lower side and locked in the first place position. Wolff never looked back after taking over the lead and remained the lead until the checkered flag flew over the fifteen-lap main event.

#71 Nathan Wolff came on strong in Pro-Am Unlimited to take the win

Big Dawg / B&B Motorsports / Canup Trucking’s Aaron Medlin has been coming on strong since last season and got off to a good start coming out the holeshot in fourth place. Medlin had to get around CJ Robson who was in third place and a fellow North Carolina native who he has battled with before. Medlin snuck his Honda around Robson to take over the position but then had to battle with Houghton who had second place locked in. Medlin kept his persistency at one hundred percent when it came to utilizing the big berm in the center of the track. This allowed him to gain ground on Houghton and eventually put on a pass before the race was over, securing a second place podium finish for himself. This is one of the best finishes for Medlin in his Pro career and is a great start to his season.

Earnhardt Racing / TRE / Rath Racing’s Michael Houghton won the opening round of the 2014 season in the Unlimited class and was off to a great start for this round as well with a big holeshot. However, Houghton is on a completely new machine and program this year along with having some very stiff competition to go up against. Houghton pushed on after the holeshot and battled with Wolff and Medlin but eventually dropped back to third place by the end of the fifteen laps. Nevertheless, a great ride and a great starting point to his season.
