A tricky track that caused count- less mistakes and several falls only provided the faultless Kopp with repeated opportunities to immediately separate from the pack and cruise all alone out front. The battles behind him were entertaining at least. Dalton Gauthier—the 2022 champion - ship runner-up who left the American Honda- backed Turner Honda outfit to contend for the independent D&D/Certified KTM squad— didn't seem to lose any speed in the transition, twice finishing second. On Thursday, he was joined on the podium by Estenson Rac - ing Yamaha's Trevor Brunner, while former teammate Chase Saathoff took third-place honors on Saturday. Trent Lowe, who now fills Gauthier's former seat with Turner Honda, claimed a pair of fourths, while a pair of talented Aussies—Estenson Racing's Tom Drane and Kopp's highly decorated teammate, Max Whale—split the fifths. CN on his competition than Daniels had on his. The defending class champ came into the week saying the number-one plate felt heavy, both due to the increased expectations and the target on his back. However true, at least outwardly the number-one plate looked to be worth about five horsepower. Kopp was in complete control of both events, twice topping practice, qualifying, his heat races, the Al Lamb's Dallas Honda Challenge, and the Main events. Dalton Gauthier (79) didn't let Kopp get away too much by finishing second both nights.
