We had one of our best battles of the season in the XC1 Class. First
Overall Forrest Smith and 2nd Overall Hutton Woods battled all the
way to the checkered flag. Forrest Smith grabbed the Hole shot With
Hutton Woods close behind. Hutton made the pass for the lead on the
third lap with Forrest staying right on his back tire. Both riders
elected not to do the optional log section right before the finish
line the whole race until on the last lap, Forrest took the gamble
and went for the option as a last effort to make the pass on Hutton
and it worked with Forrest edging out Hutton for the overall win. Ethan Bryant 3rd Overall took his best overall finish of the season. Ethan didn't get off to a great start having to work his way threw traffic making his way into third on the third lap and road a smart race taking a solid 3rd overall. Dakotah Smith who finished 4th overall has been making a name for himself lately finishing in the top 5 in the last two races, looking stronger and stronger every race. Bryan Vaughan who finished 5th overall, this was his first race back from having surgery and it looks like he's already back where he left off finishing in the top five riding very well. |

Another great battle went on in the XC2 class between Clint
Woods and Jason Reine. Clint and Jason switch positions the
whole race with Clint making it stick on the last lap to
take the win. Jason finished right behind him and Wesley
Burks rounded out the top three with a solid finish. |
In the kids vet class Haven Alford showed up meaning
business taking the hole shot and leading every lap making
it five wins for the season. Haven Alford Kids Vet 1st place |
We had a great race in the women's class. Courtney Gerald
grabbed the whole shot and lead most of the first lap with
Jessica Delee on her back tire. Before the end of the first
lap Jessica made the pass and checked out, she never looked
back pulling a nice lead and taking her second win of the
season. Jessica Delee Women 1st place |
We hosted our first ever ATV race in LACC history on
Saturday morning. We didn't have very many riders but
everything went well and we hope for it to grow as we will
have three more ATV races this year. Chris Brian ATV-OPEN 1st place |
Our UTV class has been staying pretty strong lately, we had
a great turn out with a new winner who also dominated the
ATV class. Chris Brian UTV 1st place |
