JB Racing / ITP / Can-Am’s Larry Hendershot, Jr. grabbed the holeshot on the second row. “We got at great jump on the start, and got a significant lead heading into the woods. I made a mistake and went a little wide in one of the corners and Kyle got around me, but we stayed right with him for most of the race. I clipped a tree late in the race and backed off a bit. I was going to make a charge in the final lap, but the race was a little shorter than we anticipated and we finished third. I felt great out there today and I am pretty happy with how we finished,” said Hendershot Jr.

Anderson Design’s Hans Ada started on the sixth and final row of the Pro XC1 class, which had him at a huge disadvantage with over 25 SxS racers in front on him off the start, but it didn’t seem to slow him down as he finished the first lap in the fourth spot. Ada dropped to fifth place in the third lap, but made up time and reclaimed the number four spot in the final lap, which was a much better finish than at the General where issues took him out in the first lap.

Can-Am/Racer Tech’s Mouse Pratt grabbed the Holeshot from the third row of the XC1 Pro SxS race. Pratt ran a smooth and consistent race as he stayed in the fifth spot for most of the race, which is where he finished. Mouse Pratt’s top five finished moved him into seventh in the points race after a disappointing race in Georgia. “Everything worked great for us out there today. It was rutted out and roots everywhere out there and we were just careful and weathered the storm and came out with a fifth place finish,” said Pratt.

In the XC2 Pro Sport class, Coastal Racing / Racer Tech’s John Henry put his Polaris in the winning position. Henry started off on the tenth row but grabbed the holeshot for his row. Henry kept picking off the competition one by one and took lead in lap three and held his position all the way to the checkered flag. “This race and this win were special for us because this is the last race with my son Colton before he heads off to the army, so it was a really good day for us. It was rough out there and it was really tough to pass, but my Racer Tech equipment held up great and got us out front. I couldn’t be happier,” said Henry.
