condition, and the club did an ex- cellent job. We had zero issues, just riding smooth and steady. We just rode smart and kept it together. This was my fourth 24- hour race, and I think it's the best one they have had." Fourth place went to Team Mama Tried - Max Motosports, consisting of Austin Anz, Domi - nic Goff, Rider Knight, Ty Roberts, Trent Smith and Zane Williams. They secured second place in the Expert category with 38 laps. "We were second in class and fourth overall pretty much from lap two on," Roberts said. "We fought all night with the Bandito team. Those guys are fast, and we kept them honest. We did make up time on them at night, but it wasn't enough. No bike issues." Rounding out the top five and placing third was Team The Fast Boys, consisting of Caden Belcher, Hunter Higginbotham, Luke Hig - ginbotham, Davian Hill, Owen Mock and Brandon Sanford. "We started out on the slow side with some bike problems," Belcher said. "One of the bikes had to have its rear brakes swapped out, and another bike had engine issues, but we salvaged the situation with an excellent pit crew. Our night racing was perfect with no light issues. A big shout-out to Mark with Task Racing." Heath Harrison, a former pro - fessional motocross and Super- cross rider, joined Team Vexon/ NuMedic alongside riders Dillon Cook, Spencer Cook, Jordyn Du - Bose, Nathan Knight and Nolan Knight just about a week before the race. Harrison led on the first lap. The team finished sixth overall and first in the 30-plus category, despite receiving a five-minute penalty for speeding in the pits and Harrison running out of gas. He has competed in this race a few times, as well as the 24 Hours of Glen Helen. "I did the Glen Helen race on a team with Ty Davis, and these two races are apples and oranges. Glen Helen is fast, and running the mountain ridges at night is scary, but they don't have trees. I think I enjoyed this race more. A bit of a slower pace." In the Ironman class, Levi Riley, the defending class cham - pion, took the win with 24 laps. "I just tried to pace myself and not ride too fast," Riley said. "My bike developed a coolant leak, and I slowed down some. I just wanted to finish. I did get my legs soaked in coolant." Ronnie Garcia and Jacob Denny finished closely behind with 23 laps. Madison Allen from Team 205 secured the Ironwoman win by finishing 12 laps. Joel Deroche secured first place in the Ironman 40+ class with 22 laps. The Perry Mountain Club presents an award at the half - way point for the team or indi- vidual in 33rd overall. This award honors Carl Ivey and his race number 33. Mr. Ivey has been a key supporter of the race since the beginning. This year, Team 76/Stallin And Fallin received the award along with a gift certifi- cate for $333.33.
