Barcia down with him. Dungey
was up dead last.
Rocky Mountain ATV-MC
KTM's Davi Millsaps got the
holeshot, but Rockstar Energy
Husqvarna's Jason Anderson
wasted no time dropping him
to second. Millsaps settled in
for second in front of Musquin,
Webb and Bogle's teammate
Broc Tickle. Tomac started well
outside the top 10.
Musquin made quick work
of the leaders, though, and
pushed Anderson wide for the
lead before the track's triple
jump to take the lead. Webb
soon moved into third, but

race, Tomac had caught up to
Webb in third, as Tomac was

nobody could match. But when
Tomac went by Webb for sec-

Webb was the fastest guy in
daytime qualifying, and was
dominant in winning his heat
race while Monster Energy
Kawasaki's Eli Tomac barely
qualified out of his heat. Dung-
ey stated that he was aiming to
win in Seattle, but he got a bad
jump off the start and ended
up being collected in a first-
turn fall when Webb clipped a
Tuff Block on the inside of turn
one, knocking it in front of RCH
Suzuki's Justin Bogle, who
clipped it and careened into
Dungey, taking the champ and
