Chase Sexton made a pass for second and began battling with Hunter. Hunter made a pass on his brother for the lead until he went off track. Jett reclaimed the lead. Sexton began to get aggressive seizing the lead in the last two laps for the moto win.
In the 250 class, Haiden Deegan was out front winning the moto wire to wire. In the second moto, Levi Kitchen claimed the holeshot. A red flag caused the race to restart and it was Kitchen out front again until Deegan went on the attack grabbing an early lead. Deegan went down in a crash allowing Tom Vialle to make a pass for the lead with Jo Shimoda and Levi Kitchen following. Deegan remounted in sixth. As the clock wound down, Deegan clawed his way back to the front. By this time Jo Shimoda had the lead. Shimoda went on to win the moto by 6 seconds over Deegan. Deegan’s second place finish and earlier moto win earned him the overall for the weekend, stretching his points lead even further.
