"In the main, I crashed on the first lap, but I
was still calm and worked my way to the front. It
was just one of those nights where I knew I could
be patient because I had good speed. It's great
to get the win with my daughter here for her first-
ever race."
Hart was also thrilled to nab second. "Once
again, I got a bad start but then I got by Ty Tre-
maine to get into third and I could tell I was clos-
ing in on Cody, which is easier than having him
chasing me," Hart said. "And then on that last lap,
we both just sent it into those rocks and either
Guerrero (Yamaha). Benjamin Herrera (Beta),
Geoff Aaron (GasGas), Redmond, Cooper Ab-
bott (KTM) and Ty Cullins (Beta) completed the
top 10 overall.
Haaker was excited to get the win and
summed up his night by saying: "I started the day
off with a full loop-out in the [afternoon] hot lap,
so that put me on the second [line] for the heat
race. So that wasn't a good start, but I knew I
was fast today and somehow I got into the lead
right away in the heat and won that. Then I won
the bracket race in a good battle with Cody.
