home the overalls in both the Open Pro race
as well as the Pro-Am class. Joe fought his
way through both motos of the day battling against
other top riders such as Tommy Mofford, Vinny
Mofford, Danny Lewis, and Myles Santaniello.

Thomas Mofford Grabs the Holeshot in Pro
Moto One over #621 Danny Lewis |
In Pro Moto One it was Thomas Mofford on his
#21 BCS Kawasaki that took the holeshot, followed
by #621 Danny Lewis, #26 Vinny Mofford, and
#75 Joe Haavisto. The case for moto two however,
was a little different. Just as in moto one,
#21 Thomas Mofford was up in the front of the
pack leading from the starting gate area, but
as the racers rounded the first turn, being
propelled by his Baldwin powered Kawasaki 450
and mud thrashing Maxxis Razr 2 tires, Joe Haavisto
rocketed passed Mofford.

Joe Haavisto picked up the 2nd Moto Win
& the Overall Win |
The track had dried slightly before the start
of Pro Moto Two, but was still in disarray as
they railed around each corner. These conditions
were no match for the racers though, as they
continued to fly around the course as if there
were no such thing as rain. Many racers took
their goggles off, as it was too hard to see
due to the mud caking their lenses as they navigated
the track. Haavisto took the moto two win and
the overall, Danny Lewis claimed a 1-3 finish
which earned him 2nd overall, Thomas Mofford’s
5-2 got him the last spot on the podium. Justin
“Muff” Hoffler grabbed the number
four position while Myles Santaniello rounded
out the top five.
