ROUND 8 / JULY 2, 2022 WEEDSPORT SPEEDWAY / WEEDSPORT, NEW YORK P86 FLAT TRACK I PROGRESSIVE AMERICAN FLAT TRACK Mission Foods/Al Lamb's Dal- las Honda's Trent Lowe came home a close fourth, followed by American Honda-backed Morgen Mischler. Mischler continues to rank second in the points race even if the reality of the situation is starting to more closely resemble an exhibition than a genuine contest with Kopp now boasting a 42-point advantage (180-138). PRODUCTION TWINS In the lead up to the main, Ryan Varnes established himself a pre-race favorite on the Schaef- fers Motorsports/Rausch Fuel & Oil KTM 890 Duke, topping both practice and qualifying. He earned a front row start in his semi but jumped the initial start. Varnes then lined up at the back of the grid in expectation of a long grind forward. Tragically, Varnes crashed early in the main. The racing eventually re- sumed with Mission Production Twins title leader Jesse Janisch and defending class champ Cory Texter running together in first and second aboard their respective Vance & Hines Har- ley Davidson and G&G Racing Yamaha race bikes. That showdown was inter- rupted when Cameron Smith blasted between the two of them to take the lead in his debut aboard the Moto Anatomy X Powered by Royal Enfield in place of the injured Johnny Lewis. Cory Texter came away with the win in the Production Twins class.
