Dalton Gauthier (RE) 13.981 up and past Drane and Saathoff in the decisive moments of the race to claim a third consecutive victory. The win saw him increase his career tally up to 20, severing a tie with Shayna Texter-Bauman atop the all-time order, while simultaneously moving him into a tie with her for most career half-mile wins at 11. Drane finished second, fol- lowed by Saathoff, Ott, and Lowe. As a result, Kopp's expanding championship lead now stands at 33 points, owning 183 points to Saathoff's 150, followed by Drane at 147. Kopp's future is quite obvi- ously in the Mission AFT Super- Twins class. In fact, a sneak accolades he continues to reap, while powering toward a previous- ly unreached third Parts Unlimited AFT Singles championship. This one took a bit of an al- ternate shape, as it prominently featured a pair of riders desper- ate to turn the tide, in Estenson Racing's Tom Drane and JPG Motorsports' Chase Saathoff. The two added to their personal history of close-quarters combat with a hard-fought scrap over first with a second group con- sisting of Kopp, Turner Racing Honda's Trent Lowe, and 1st Im- pressions' James Ott in conten- tion just behind. But when it mattered the most, Kopp accessed that next level he seems to have, storming Kody Kopp (1) gets around Trent Lowe en route to the Singles win.
