Kyle Keast goes 1-1! Ha, a guy can dream, can't he? Nope, it was the Blackfoot Yamaha 450 of Colton Facciotti claiming his umpteenth win of the series - and the championship! Congrats, Colt! Colt started third behind Tyler Medaglia and Dusty Klatt, moved by Klatt when he fell down on lap three after the Two Wheel tunnel, and then displaced TM for the lead a few laps later.
Blair Morgan continues his roll. "Superman" worked his way by young teammate, Jimmy Nelson, and then caught and passed TM at the midway point for second. He even built up a 10-second gap over Medaglia by the end.
Orange Motorsport KTM's Liam O'Farrell had a great ride going, running fourth for a few laps before tipping over and dropping back 8th.
Simon Homans, Nelson, Jay Burke, Ryan Blizzard, Chuck Mesley, and Kyle Stephens battled back and forth for the fifth to tenth spots for quite some time.
Now what you've all been waiting for ... the Kyle Keast update! "The Welder" jumped out to a top-10 start, fell down, charged through the pack to around 11th, fell again, and then burned through the pack for fourth.
Dusty Klatt went down on lap three, remounted outside the top-20, and raced back for 11th.
