Colton Haaker closes in on first AMA
EnduroCross championship with
fifth win of the season.
Nampa, Idaho, to open up a comfortable
14-point lead going into the final round in
Ontario, California on November 19.
The Idaho win did not come easy for
Haaker, as he had to complete 15 laps on
an extremely difficult track that included a
particularly challenging firewood pit that
gave all the top riders trouble all night. He
also had to fight off Cody Webb, his main
title rival, who rode an amazing race after
recovering from two big crashes, including
one exiting the first turn.
