Kyle Thompson (160) leads "The life of Walton" Ryan Gauld. Despite entertaining crowds late into the evening,  Gauldy claimed the first Plus 25 win over Kyle and his brother, Justin. The 30-year-old Yamaha rider also won Vet Master over Derek Arnold and Matt Crown.

Two Wheel Motorsport Kawasaki's Kim Emery was 11th out of 37 women in the Ladies class. The girls are going fast and Jolene Van Vugt, Melissa Morrow, and Denaye Giroux combined for the best race of the day. Michigan's Morrow eventually claimed the win after Van Vugt nearly pulled off the track when she misread the white flag for the checkers. Hey, we've all done it! 

Schrader's Yamaha's Denaye Giroux showed some good speed in the first moto, hanging close to Van Vugt before taking third. Denaye's older sister, Amber, had a good moto taking fifth behind Kate McKerroll.

Mr. Red Bull Dylan Kaelin had both the best and worst possible moto.  After crashing in the first corner in MX1 Intermediate and getting run over by Kurtis Ritchie, Kaelin busted his throttle tube, kept riding for points and crashed again after nailing a downed rider. Fortunately, the skies turned blue when Kaelin won the first GP moto.

Quebec's Michael Da Silva grabbed the 65cc win over Joey Crown and Samuel Blouin.

Two stroke faith: Michigan's Eric Senk (663) grabs the second Youth moto holeshot. Sadly, he lost the lead when the moto was red flagged due to gate troubles. Senk was still okay, however, finishing fourth.  

Maritimer Dylan Forsythe (609) leads a tight group in an intermediate moto.  

Branden Phinney (443) and Brandyn Cowie (554) scrub their way over the Two Wheel tunnel.  Cowie kept it the lower of the two, taking second over Phinney in MX1 Intermediate.

Must be a Bradshaw fan. 

Doug Wright (37), Bill Wallin (808), and Matt Crown (45) lead the Plus 40 class. Crown took the victory over Wright and New York's Tom Hurd. 

Pre-mix pleasure: Richard Grey (194), Cole Thompson (16), and Knowles (14) reminded of us of the good old days, keeping it pinned on their 125 two-strokes in Schoolboy. The podium went Thompson, Grey, Knowles.  

Dave Blanchet sits fourth in 85cc 12-16 and 15th in Supermini. 

Sorry, bud, crocs for me!
