A rare event in any type of racing was witnessed
in the 51-70cc Production Auto when Nicholas
Gennusa of Holmdel, NJ rode to a perfect season.
The inability to deny 8 of 8 victories a championship
left the rest of the class chasing a second
place finish. Jeremy LeDonne pushed his Cobra
hard all year long, earning him second on the
year. Joe Espey held onto third place while
Delaney Chappell followed up in fourth just
9 points out. Todd Baber of Scottsville, VA
rounded out the top five while competing in
just 4 of the 8 rounds.

An epic battle ensued in the 70cc shifter 6-11
Class while the last round would determine a
championship. Davey Nevrotski and Samuel Rowe
would go toe to toe in one final Moto while
just one point separated the pair. When scoring
was posted, it would be Rowe holding the #1
plate for the year as each would score a 47
on the weekend. Austin Stevens of Pittman Racing
rode his Cobra to third place on the year while
edging out Austin Miller and Cody Hill.

Last but not least on the season wrap up is
the Supermini Class. A class that saw fully
modified mini chassis with both 2 and 4 stroke
motors breathing their life also saw a generation
of riders that could easily be the future of
the Pro Class. Bringing home the championship
was Jeffrey Rastrelli, just ahead of, Hetrick
Racing teammate, Joel Hetrick. Hetrick would
endure set up issues throughout the year, switching
back and forth between his 2 and 4 stroke set
ups, but finally found the power he was looking
for just before the end of the season. DJ Spurling
rounded out the top three with Kayle Dyer sitting
in fourth. Nick Moser had to overcome some bad
luck throughout the season, however his solid
finishes put him in 5th place, just 4 points
in front of Cody Land on the season.
