success that he had and grabbed the second moto

to take the win. In the second moto, Plante
again grabbed the holeshot, but Michael Pilotte
was right on his heels. Plante eventually fell
back for a second place finish in moto two,
but his 1-2 finishes gave him the Pro-am overall
win and allowed him to take second in the Pro-am
points championship.
