ERX is the one of those rare tracks where racing was run on a Friday. In the highly competitive Pro-2 class, Johnny Holtger claimed his first win of the season. Holtger was unstoppable, leading the race from start to finish. Each race in the class has seen a different winner on the podium. Rounding out the other two podium spots were Ronnie Anderson and Mickey Thomas.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-7445\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2023ChampOffRoadERX_HoltgerP2Podium-1024x677.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"423\" \/> <img class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-7446\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2023ChampOffroadERX_KyleGreavesPL-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/>\r\n\r\nKyle Greaves was back on the podium in Pro-Lite at ERX. It didn\u2019t come easy for him as he had to work to gain the lead. Greaves lost the lead a few times before finally making a pass stick on Trey Gibbs who finished second. Madix Bailey came away with a third-place position.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-7448\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2023ChampOffroadERX_GrayLeadbetterSpec-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/>\r\n\r\nGray Leadbetter shut down Chad Rayford\u2019s winning streak in the Pro Spec class. Rayford had a misfortune, rolling his truck after hitting a rut. Rayford was forced to pull off the track to assess the damage.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-7449\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2023ChampOffroadERX_CjGreaves-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/>\r\n\r\nIn the Pro-4 class, the battle ensued between CJ Greaves and Andrew Carlson. While ERX is Carlson\u2019s home track, Greaves was able to take the lead on the final lap for the win. After the race, both drivers were docked three positions for unsafe speed during a caution. Adrian Cenni finished in the third spot but could ultimately be awarded the win. Mike Steinhardt won Pro Buggy and Carlson took the top spot in Pro Turbo Side-by-Side.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-7450\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2023ChampOffroadERX_CarlsonTurbo-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/>\r\n\r\nPhotos: Amanda Morris- Proformance Media","excerpt":"<p>The Championship Off-Road Series headed to ERX Motorpark in Elk River for another two rounds of racing.

Jerett Brooks was third, battling with Corey Winner. Then the unthinkable happened creating a perfect storm of scenarios. A power steering belt snapped shutting his race down. He stalled in blind corner causing several trucks to crash into him. When the race restarted, Kincaid continued to lead the race keeping Winner just out of reach of the podium. When the dust settled, Kincaid won the Championship by one point, Winner lost by 1 point and oddly enough, Brooks also lost by 1 point.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3154\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/21-Crandon-Saturday-Championships_CJ-GreavesP4-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/> <img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3155\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/21-Crandon-Saturday-Championships_CJGreavesWin-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/>\r\n\r\nOver in Pro-4, Kyle Leduc would pull off the track early ending his hopes for a championship.
