The season finale double header EDT racing event was held on and around a former municipal airport in Muskogee, Oklahoma. The course is unique for the series, which usually competes on oval type tracks inside arenas. It featured special bends and turns, as well as split lane section with switchbacks and a long straightaway. Weather for the event was mostly dry with just a few showers the evening before the race.

Maxxis’ Brad Riley, who came into the event with a 37-point lead, got off to a mid-pack start behind the Creech, who took the holeshot. Riley made his way through the field, taking second from Creech at the midpoint of the race. He took the lead for good from Wolff on the next lap.

Maxxis' #1 Brad Riley claimed the Pro Win & wrapped up the EDT Racing Pro Championship at Round 6 of the 2015 season

“I didn’t get off the greatest start; I had my work cut out for me,” said Riley. “I was able to make some good passes in certain spots. The track was rough. It was really a motocross style track and I like that. At the end, I think some of these guys got a little beat, and I was able to take advantage of it.”

Riley has won four of five races this season en route to the title. Although he has mathematically clinched the championship, Riley is going to race in the final round.

#1 Brad Riley celebrated wrapping up both the Pro & Pro-Am Championships by proposing to Alisha Roberts to top off a great day

“We’re going to go out tomorrow and try to get a win,” said Riley. “I knew I could win the championship; I just had to avoid any boneheaded moves. I can’t thank all of my sponsors enough: The 27 Motorsports Honda, Maxxis Tires, PEP Suspension, DASA motor, Houser Components, SSi Decals, Victory Motorsports, Motul, and Rekluse Clutches.”

CCR Racing’s Creech rebounded to finish second and now sits fourth in points. Interestingly, Creech had to share his only ATV with his wife this weekend after thieves stole all of his quads from his Nashville, NC shop a week ago.

WISECO's #25 Chuckie Creech scored the second spot on the Pro podium with his brand new Honda to replace the two that were stolen around a month ago from his home

“Pulling the holeshot is great, but getting that second wind is tough,” said Creech. “The Maxxis tires really hooked up at the start. In fact, they still look new after the race. I spun out and hit a tire late in the race. That messed up both Brad and I. Nathan started getting tired and that was the only thing that really helped us.

“Losing those quads was heartbreaking,” added Creech. “My sponsors really came together to get me a bike just like I had. It’s hard to lose all of that money in quads.”
