Vanbuskirk took the holeshot. After the second turn Beau Hayes was in second place just leading Brady Neys. With everyone still packed close together they came down the hill to finish the first lap and Richard Turner had moved up to third. Vanbuskirk and Hayes were battling hard the entire race changing positions through turns only to have Vanbuskirk come out ahead. Flying over the line on the white flag Hayes made a bold move and got by Vanbuskirk, but they hit eachother in mid-air, both going down off the side of the track. Hayes was not noticeably injured, but pushed his bike to the pits, Vanbuskirk on the other hand, took right back off getting in second place behind Turner. All this drama allowed Neys to move up to third place after losing a couple positions throughout the moto. Once the flag dropped Turner held onto first place. The overall points got Vanbuskirk the win (1-2), Turner second (4-1) and Neys third with a fifth and third finish. Open B came off the line with a lot of familiar faces from the 250 class. In the first moto Chris Antolak took the holeshot with Vanbuskirk right behind, and Beau Hayes in third. Vanbuskirk took the lead with Hayes second, Neys in third and Logan Skaggs moving into fourth. The flag came down without any change getting Vanbuskirk the win. The second moto had Hayes was out of contention from his crash in 250B, and several other riders having bike issues. The checkered flag flew with Vanbuskirk getting the win again, Neys in second and Ricki Williams third. Both Open and 250c had great races. Open C was up first with Matt Dziubinski taking the win with Paxton Kerber riding the only Husqvarna out there today, taking second and Jake Peterson third. The second moto started with David Rodgers taking the holeshot, Austin Hansen in second and Kyle Mitchell third.
