Anderson said. "Luckily, he was giving
Eli some fits, and I was able to sneak
in there and zap Eli. I honestly didn't
even know he stalled it. It was tough
because when you're in the beginning
and Eli's trying to square up some
of the corners and some of the guys
from behind catch you by surprise. I
think I just caught Eli by surprise and
was able to get by him and get out
front pretty quick."
Sexton put it on the box again this
weekend with a second-place finish.
The lone Honda HRC 450 rider was
arguably the fastest rider all day, as
he qualified first and proceeded to log
the fastest lap time in the main event.
Sexton got into second and stalked
Anderson for several laps but just
couldn't get within striking distance to
make a pass. Lappers and the tight,
technical track made it difficult for the
number-23 to get his bike into the
front spot.

"I really wanted the podium tonight a er

happy with the result," said Kyle Chisholm.
"For me to come in and get a heat race
win, it's awesome. I know it's a bummer to
have the team's regular guys out, so I was
really happy to be able to give the team
a heat race win a er all the hard work

"Man, I had a really tough day," said RJ
Hampshire. "I had good starts again. In
the heat race, I crashed right off the start
when someone hit me and went to the
LCQ. I got some more laps in the LCQ and
felt really good in the main event. We
were clicking them off. I definitely had a
shot at that win, and had good speed to
do it, but just happened to come together
with Pierce with about four or five to go
and kind of threw it away tonight. I was
happy with the riding in the main event."

some passes to get second.
