VOL. 53 ISSUE 31 AUGUST 9, 2016 P41 the second of which was a result of a crash involving AMA Pro Flat Track racer Johnny Lewis and Australian Josh McLean. Fortu- nately Lewis' injuries were not too severe, but the Fat Boy Rac- ing/Lifeproof rider forfeited his second-place position because he was unable to restart after drawing the red flag. O'Hara was then promoted to second place, followed by Six-Four Motorsports' Shane Narbonne. Rounding out the top five were Lean Six Sigma Rac- ing's McLean and RSR KTM's Eric Stump. McAllister came back even stronger in the second main, leading from start to finish. His teammate Dustin Hoffman kept him honest, however, and the winner of Saturday's Pro Brawl was right on McAllister's heels the entire way. Narbonne joined the RSR KTM duo on the podium to take home a pair of third-place finishes. O'Hara crossed the line fourth ahead of McLean. In addition to a pair of top-five finishes in the Pro Open class, McLean dominated the Pro Lites class to take his first ever AMA National win. Pulling double duty in both Pro classes was espe- cially taxing at Trois-Riviéres as the three mains were run with no breaks in between. In the end McLean was rewarded for his efforts—a trophy to bring home to Australia. "The 250 was really good," McLean said. "I qualified first and got lucky with a good start. Just pulled away and kept riding how I normally ride. So it was really good. A bit sore, though, from the 450 moto-one crash, but it's okay." Behind McLean, the battle for second came down to the wire between Fat Boy Racing's Dallas Daniels and Tri-County Powersports Husqvarna's Nicky Reimer. Defending Pro Lites Champion Reimer made his move on the young track racer, but Daniels was able to retake the position and cross the line second. Rounding out the top five were McLean's teammate Josh Jackson and Welsh Rac- ing/Damn Dummy Racing's Cameron Welsh. Andrea Wilson Josh McLean dominated the Pro Lites class.
