Joe Haavisto & #47 Vincent Mofford
battle for the lead in the Pro-Am Class
with Haavisto winning the battle to claim
the win and extend his points lead |
In the Pro-am class, it was Kawasaki’s Vincent
Mofford edging out Joe Haavisto for the holeshot
and the early lead, but it would take long for
Haavisto to make the pass to take over the lead
followed by Vincent Mofford and Mike Pilotte.
Just as in the Pro class, the order of the race
did not change much due to the inclement conditions.
Joe Haavisto rode away with the Pro-am win with
Vincent Mofford taking second and Mike Pilotte
taking the final podium position. Thomas Mofford
ran a solid race to claim 4th, while Justin Hoffler,
finished once again in 5th place.
Even with massive amounts of mud, there was
a large turnout in the Women’s class with
12 riders lined up at the gate ready and waiting
for their chance to get down and dirty. Halo
Suspension’s Amy Thompson, who has been
putting on a solid performance all season on
her #103 Yamaha, took the holeshot and the win.
Thompson, who had the advantage of clear sight,
pulled ahead and kept a comfortable lead all
the way to the finish line. Tiffany LaClair
took an impressive second place, while class
points leader Paige Whipple finished in a strong
third place.
In the 25+ class, #122 Yamaha of Matt Atkins
took the holeshot and the win, gaining some
points on current points leader, Chris Lane
and second in points, Casey Loring as both Chris
and Casey decided not to race because of the
conditions. In the Youth 200/300 class, Cody
Gould braved the elements to take the win with
Joshua Mondo in second and Mike Troiano taking
the final spot on the podium.
The 4-Stroke Expert A class was not without
its challenges as well with only four out of
nine racers crossing the finish line. Jonathan
Hansen was the first to reach the checkered
flag, with class points leader Ralle Rookey
in a close second. Jono Normandin found his
way to the 3rd spot on the podium and Anthony
Pugliese rode in at a solid fourth.
The next round of the NEATV-MX will be held
at MX207 in Lyman, Maine. Round 10 will be a
special event that is to include a fundraising
benefit for the American Cancer Society. The
benefit will begin at 4PM with games and prizes,
including a Guitar Hero contest. Luminary bas
will also be sold at the event with 100% of
the proceeds donated to the American Cancer
Society.
