Pro Moto two made jaws drop as Richard Pelchat
and Cody Miller came careening through the first
turn neck and neck with Pelchat barely edging
out Miller to take the holeshot. Following the
two Can-Am mounted leaders was Jasmin Plante,
Michael Pilotte and Jason Connell. During the
first lap, Pilotte again ran into some issues
and dropped back to 6th place allowing Connell,
and Vinny Mofford to move up a position

#46
Richard Pelchat grabbed the Pro Moto Two
Holeshot from #22 Cody Miller & lead
the pack for more than half of the eight
lap race |
Pelchat was able to lead Miller through the
first half of the eight lap moto but with the
drive and mindset after winning moto one, Miller
made a clean pass on Pelchat and took over the
lead. The pair would stay this way all the way
to the checkered flag with Miller finishing
with a 5 second lead over Pelchat. Miller stayed
smooth even over the rough terrain of Jolly
and felt confidence in his Can-Am ATV the entire
day.

#91 Jasmin
Plante would take the 3rd spot to claim
a Podium finish

Finishing in third place in Pro Moto two and third
place overall, Canadian racer Jasmin Plante put
on a great performance running near the front
of the pack entire race and keeping distance between
himself and Jason Connell who was on the move
again in fourth place ahead of Michael Pilotte
and Joe Haavisto.
Haavisto pressured Pilotte for the remainder
of the race but could not find a way around
him on this single-line, rocky track. Haavisto
finished fourth overall on the day followed
by Richard Pelchat with 9-2 finishes, Vinny
Mofford with 5-7, Michael Pilotte with 10-5,
Jesse Onesti with 8-8, Matt Pomeroy with 7-9

Unforunately for BCS Performance riders Myles
Santaniello and Ralle Rooke, they both suffered
from injuries during a mid-moto accident when
Rooke went for a pass in a back section of the
track. The extent of Santaniello’s injuries
are not known yet but he does have a pulled
muscle in his knee and is going to have his
wrist looked at. Ralle Rooke suffered two broken
collar bones and is expected to be back within
4-5 weeks.
