ATV Racing legends Shane Hitt and Harold Goodman
had an intense battle brewing between on another
from the get-go of the Pro-Am Unlimited race which
saw Goodman in the lead for most of the race but
Hitt come away with the better position as he
landed in second place on the podium, forcing
Goodman to take home third place.
“We put this bike together just earlier
in the week and came out to Pine Lake for some
fun! It was an amazing race and Harold was really
tough to get by but I was able to before the end
of the race. It feels great to be back up here
running with the fastest guys in the world!,”
said Hitt after the race with excitement.

Harold Goodman was running in 2nd place,
just in front of #51 Shane Hitt for much
of the Pro-Am Main event but during the
last few moments of the race, TT master
Hitt was able to pass Goodman & take
home a 2nd place spot on the podium |
Goodman, for the first time of the weekend was
not in the first place spot after the dust settled.
However, he was still able to make the podium,
this time in the third spot after doing battle
with Hitt for the entire Main.
“ It was awesome to be able to race with
Shane again on one of our favorite tracks of the
EDT series and I'm pretty happy how things went
this weekend. I won all three of my heat races,
got the fastest qualifier in the Pro class and
took the win in the Pro and Pro Lites classes,
so it was a good weekend for me! I’ve also
missed the series and had a good time this weekend
so I will probably be at the last round in Orville,
Ohio as well," said Goodman after the contest.
