JR Addison was having a great race in

Even though Mees was well out front,

Another great race was going on be-

Davidson Motor Company/Vance &
Hines teammates Brandon Robinson and
Kenny Coolbeth on their Harley-Davidson
XG750Rs. They finished fifth through
eighth in that order.
Jarod Vanderkooi and Davis Fisher
finished ninth and 10th on their Kawasakis,
