VOL. 53 ISSUE 35 SEPTEMBER 7, 2016 P33 efforts mistake-free. By lap 10, he had an infield-long lead over the field and seemed un-catch- able. In the final laps, Webb finally made his pass for third place stick over Tremaine and was on Brown. A last-lap pass got him into second with Brown finishing third. The win gives Haaker a four- point lead in the series over Webb with Brown in third ten more points back. "I didn't get the best jump off the start but I stayed calm in fifth or sixth and tried to stay calm and not make dumb mistakes like I did in the heat race," said Haaker. "A couple laps in I was in a good position in second when Cody went down. From there I felt solid, ran out a few laps that were fast and kept it to- gether to cruise out for the win." Webb rode with speed all evening but when the main event came, the mistakes kept him from the win, "I was leading and it felt like I was making little mistakes while I tried to get in my rhythm then I just washed out the front end in a corner and put myself into fourth, Webb said. "I don't know how many times I tipped over in the woodpile but to come out with second is obvi- ously good. Haaker was able to click off laps and get out there. I have the speed but I just need to put it together." Mike Brown grabbed the hole- shot and jumped on the podium for the first time in 2016. "The start was the main thing tonight to get in front of some guys and get through the rocks every lap. When you get the start it always gives you an extra boost," said Brown. "I know I don't have 15 fast laps in me as I haven't been riding much so I'm happy with myself sitting in third here after the third week of riding in seven months." Ty Tremaine held on to finish fourth with another fast young- ster, Noah Kepple, busting into the top five. Canadian Trystan Hart rode hard to sixth and Cory Graffunder held on for seventh. Nick Thompson, Max Gerston and Ty Cullins rounded out the top 10. In other classes, Morgan Tanke took the exciting Women's Class win over Morgan Tanke and Rachel Gutish. Spenser Wilton took the win in the amateur class over Giuliano Rolandi and Cody Miller. In the Vet class, David Stirm took the main event win over Dan Hay- akawa and Wayne Dickert. CN 1.
