Polaris Pro-Am Racer, #179 Landon Hurst suffered a serious wreck at his home practice track with multiple fractures to his legs, which will have him sidelined for the rest of the season, so #375 Casey Martin has replaced Hurst on the Polaris Outlaw, and he finished 13th Overall in Polaris debut, and he will back in action on Sunday in the Pro-Am Production Class.
