2013 AMA Racing ATV Extreme Dirt Track Nationals Round #5 - Goldsboro, NC Busco Beach July 14, 2013

In the Pro-Am race, Hellbound Racing’s, Brian Ace was the man at the top after snagging the holeshot in front of the packed field. Ace continued on his path for a win but with something happening between a couple riders in the back and a crash accrued which resulted in a staggered restart. Ace of course started from the front of the pack and hammered down to keep his position.

“I could hear those guys behind me pushing super hard and I knew I had to stay clean to be able to finish strong. My Tru-Way Racing motor pulled me off the line super hard and got me out front. I can’t thank my whole team and sponsors enough, without them this would be impossible!” said Ace on the podium.

Andrew Evanyke placed second in the Pro-Am Classs

Fellow Northerner #3x Andrew Evanyke tucked right in behind Ace off of the holeshot and never looked back as he chased down Ace for the entire moto coming home with a second place finish, his first time on the podium in the EDT Pro class ranks. Evanyke took charge from the get-go aboard his AE3 Motorsports / ESJ Graphics 450R and fended off charges from a hard pressing Brad Riley who was just behind him in 3rd place.

Brad Riley was back on the podium in the Pro-Am class as well as he came off a third place holeshot to battle with Evanyke, swap positions back and forth, and eventually fall back to his third place finish where he ended the moto. Riley charged hard after a little mistake which sent him back to fifth place at one point as well but he credits his DASA motor and Maxxis tires for hooking up good on the rough track and getting him back towards the front. Riley showed his true sportsmanship and speed as he slipped his way back past the fourth place rider and into third before the checkered flag flew.

“The Bumblebee” Harold Goodman once again put on a top 5 finish in the Pro am class aboard his Honda East / Elka backed Honda 450R. Goodman battled with Riley during the Pro-Am main swapping between 3rd and 4th but just couldn’t quite keep the third spot as he dropped back to a hard charging Riley.
