going on behind me. That was
probably the highlight of my third
moto."
For Walker, who finished
fifth in the final moto, it was an
evening he would just as soon
forget.
"Honestly, that was probably
the worst night I've ever had on
a bike," said Walker. "I felt like I
had good speed, but anything
that was going on out there on
the track, I seemed to end up in
the middle of it. So, it's just one
of them nights. And yeah, hey,
we're still in it."
LeBlond completed the overall
podium with a 3-1-8 scorecard,
while Abbott finished fourth with
6-7-2 results. Webb rounded out
the top five, followed by Hintze,
James Flynn, Branden Petrie,
Colton Haaker and Tim Apolle.
Haaker's appearance was
also noteworthy, as the former
EnduroCross champion made
his debut aboard a Beta 300 two-
stroke.
With the series heading to Ida-
ho Falls for a two-night finale on
November 13-14, Walker leads
Hart by the slimmest of margins,
91 points to 90. LeBlond remains
within striking distance with 82
points, followed by Abbott at 73
and Webb at 68.
After four rounds, the champi-
onship that once appeared to be
slipping away from Hart is sud-
denly within his grasp. But with
two nights of racing remaining
and Walker still holding the red
plate, the 2026 title is far from
decided.
