Ending the summer break was two fold for our youth racers, as round #9 found many ready to return to school and just as many that had started the week previous. 84 Youth entries were on hand for the event with each one ready to turn it on at the Mountain Ridge Facility.
Austin Findley has been working hard all season and was excited to be back at the track.
Matthew Harris came out of the box on fire in the first few rounds, claiming an overall win at round #2. Matthew hasn't been posting the finishes he would like, but he is determined and always happy to be racing.

Jesi Stracham was going to have to run a loaner quad for this event as she had scattered her race engine prior to the race. She sure does ride hard, and when pushing the small engines so hard it is bound to happen.
Charlie Welch and Brayden Schick have been battling at every rut, rock and turn this season. Charlie gets his race face on before he buckles up and heads to the line.
Scott Kilby brings his son's quad to the line. Hunetr has been doing great this season and is sitting in the number two spot. he has finished 2nd or better with the exception of one round!!!
Dylan Bradford has been laying down the smack this season aboard his Cobra. At Sparta, he finished his worst race of the season posting the 18th spot, and not counting that race, he headed to Mountain Ridge undefeated.
