After his three-year-old put a garden hose
in the exhaust of his Honda the day before the
race, Brian Wolf borrowed a Yamaha from XC1
rider Brandon Sommers and claimed his fifth
win of the season in the XC2 class, beating
out Yamaha riders Gabe Phillips and Eric Hoyland.
"I'm on Brandon's practice bike and I
can't thank Brandon Sommers enough," said
Wolf. "The bike was phenomenal and I can't
say enough about the bike."
Wolf added to his points lead in the XC2 division,
and now holds a 30-point lead over Ballance
Racing Yamaha's Walker Fowler, who finished
sixth on the day in Tennessee.
Phillips, who won round five of the series
earlier in the year, finished second after getting
a last place start.
"I've been chasing this series for a while
and up here on the podium is where I want to
be," said Phillips. "After getting
the bad start I just had to put my head down
and charge to the front."
Hoyland finished third ahead of Yamaha rider
Kevin Yoho, while Honda rider Parker Jones was
fifth. Fowler, Corbin Knox (Hon), Nathan Thomas
(Hon), Blake Kramer (Suz) and Matt Hanna (Yam)
rounded out the top 10.
Meanwhile, Kawasaki rider Dustin Canipe won
the $100 Motorcycle-USA.com holeshot award to
start the XC2 race.
In the morning race, Women's class winner Kristen
Atwell claimed the GT Thunder ATV Amateur $100
Overall Award after a tough battle with Lexi
Colter. It was her second GT Thunder Amateur
award in a row and fifth of the year. "Me
and Lexi were battling on the last lap and I
got around her once and then I got cut off by
a lapper and she got back around me," said
Atwell. "I was able to get her back, however,
with two miles left in the race."
In the meantime, Dave Simmons was third overall
on his Yamaha and first on the 50+ Super Senior
division.
In the Youth race, Marshal Goings claimed his
third-straight win in the 90 Modified (12-15)
division and claimed the overall victory as
well. "I was kind of mad that I didn't
get the start and I just going as hard as I
could to get back up there," said Goings.
"Me and Levi battled back and forth for
most of the race, but I was finally able to
get him towards the end."
