Presented by Works Connection
and the AMA D-36 Motion Pro
Championship Youth Cross-

Racer Decal.
FMF KTM Off-Road Rac-
ing Team's Cody Webb got the

Designs 300 XC-W.

silt most of the way, the extreme
enduro star somehow managed
to work his way up to second

completed a lap, but not long

It became hopelessly plugged
and despite changing filters, the
J.T. Baker ended
up the winner of
the FMF Pro 250
class.
