“I got by him (Ryan Lane) in the woods about 2 miles into it. I just thought I could cruise but a lapper got crossed up in front of me and he got around me. I ended up catching him again. The whole race I knew there was a line right before the finish. I never took it before, but I knew that’s the spot where I could try to pass him. I stayed right on his bumper until I we got there and I took it and made the pass and crossed the finish.” Said Spider Graphix’ Kevin Cunningham.

We all then were back together.” Said Dirtworks’ Ryan Lane.

I finally caught Adam (McGill) on the second lap but I couldn’t hold on because my hands were slipping off. On the last lap me, Ryan (Lane), and Kevin (Cunningham), we all three had a really good battle going on and I got caught behind a lapped rider.” Said Jet Suspension’s Brycen Neal.
