Both would round a corner and Wilkey would take the lead. Bio would pass Wilkey over the jump to get back out front. This back and forth went on for several laps before Bio came into the hot pits with a mechanical issue. Bio made it back out into the race for a few more laps before having to call it quits. Wilkey ran away with the lead and began lapping the field.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1794\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/KOH-Class-11-Shootout_battle-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/> <img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1795\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/KOH-Class-11-Shootout_TT-Killer-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/> <img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1796\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/KOH-Class-11-Shootout_WarriorBuilt-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/> <img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1797\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/KOH-Class-11-Shootout_FalkenBug-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/>\r\n\r\nIn the end, Wilkey took the win with Bryan Crofts and Ryan Rodriguez coming in second and third in the showdown.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1798\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/KOH-Class-11-Shootout_Wilkey-Jump-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/> <img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1799\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/KOH-Class-11-Shootout_Wilkey-Celebrating-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/>","excerpt":"<p>Class 11 bugs battled under the lights at the King of the Hammers Saturday night.

The race was originally set to be the opening round of the newly formed Championship Off Road Series. In a Crandon first, the Brush Run was held at night under the lights. Of course, things are never easy in Crandon especially in the fall. Officials dodged rain that would make the track a muddy mess.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1244\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Szymik_BrushRun-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" \/>\r\n\r\nIn the Pro-Light race, John Holtger was out front early, but by the second lap, Zach Szymik had stolen the lead. Points leader Kyle Greaves had to be towed off the track with a tie rod issue. When the race restarted, Holtger was back to the lead. Szymik didn\u2019t waste any time stealing the right back. Szymik would get his second career win at Crandon with John Holtger finishing 2<sup>nd<\/sup> place.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1245\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/MickeyThomas_BrushRun-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/> <img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1246\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Pro2Podium_BrushRun-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/>\r\n\r\nDuring the Pro-2 race, Mickey Thomas wasted no time making a pass for the lead. Ryan Beat and Kyle Kleiman made contact with each other in a battle for second just before the mandatory caution. Light rain began falling, making conditions even more slick on the track. Thomas went on to win the victory.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1248\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/KyleLeduc_BrushRun-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/> <img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1249\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Pro4Podium_BrushRun-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/>\r\n\r\nOfficials wasted no time starting the Pro-4 race as rain continued to fall on the track. Andrew Carlson grabbed the holeshot. Johnny Greaves made an early pass to take over the lead from Carlson. A couple of laps later there was plenty of door banging as CJ Greaves moved into second creating a Greaves vs. Greaves situation. Carlson wasn\u2019t having any of it and pushed his way back to second. CJ made it past Carlson as did Kyle Leduc. Leduc continued battling hard with both Greaves, finally taking over the lead.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1250\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Pro4BattleLead_BrushRun-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/>\r\n\r\nThe October issue of DirtSportsWorld Magazine will have full coverage of the season championship winners\r\n\r\nPhotos: Amanda Fonferek","excerpt":"<p>The COVID-19 Pandemic forced the cancellation of the annual Crandon Spring Brush Run in June.
