competed in the Pro 250 class,
with Harlem Nelson and Jordan
Maas joining Zeller on the box.
In the Women's Pro class, the

competitive racing on the same
challenging layout. Shelby Turner
set the early benchmark with a
class-fast 8:45.015 lap, while the
remainder of the field focused

setting a solid foundation for the
season ahead.
In the Women's Pro class, Tri-
