ourselves in third, and then we
were into second. When Eli got in
the lead about five laps to go that's
when he really kind of started find-
ing a good rhythm. Honestly, I just
settled in. We don't ride these rutted
conditions very much so they were
very tough and technical, not easy
by any means. So the last five we
just chilled out and rode smart and
got through.

I felt on the track I'm like, 'gosh, I'm
not even going to be on the board,'
and then I'm sitting second. Eli was
really riding exceptionally good to-

us were just trying to figure it out a
little bit more than he was. It's one of
those days. You don't always click.
The track was so spongy and rutted.
There wasn't a smooth line on the
track by the end."
After getting passed by Tomac
and Dungey, Seely settled into a
safe third and rode it to the finish.
"I was making little mistakes here
and there and bottom line I got
tired," said Seely. "It's tough lead-
ing laps in the 450 class. Every little
mistake you make you lose a little
energy here and there. Bottom line,
I just figured I'd secure third. Once
I got into third I knew I had quite the
gap back to fourth. I just tried to
ride a smart race and finish third. I
locked down third in the points to-
night and third on the night. It's been
