PrivateScreens.com / Polaris / Fuel Offroad’s Phillip Kessler got off to a great first holeshot taking the lead, but then was sent back to the start again because of a red-flag restart due to a rollover by another racer. Kessler once again took the holeshot and began his onslaught of domination in the Pro Open class. Kessler came off the line with the lead but was trailed immediately by Chris Mills who was running in second place and not backing down anytime soon. Kessler was persistent however and ran his Polaris RZR to the max and was able to stay out front for the entire race to bring home the win.

Mills Cox Motorsports / AddictRacing.com / ATVRiders.com’s Chris Mills also got off off to a great start for himself as well, sliding into second place out of the holeshot, just behind Kessler. Mills pounded his RZR to the limit as well to try and catch Kessler and stay with his pace, unfortunately, he just couldn’t keep up as Kessler was out front in clean air and pulling away. Mills was delighted to be on the podium however and happy with his solid second place finish.
