COLORADO SPRINGS, CO, JANUARY 23-24: The opening night of the debut of AMSOIL Arenacross, featuring Ricky Carmichael’s Road to Supercross, inside Broadmoor World Arena in Colorado Springs, Colorado, January 23, was so closely contested that a tiebreaker was needed to determine the overall winner. After a pair of thrilling Main events, Team Babbitt’s Monster Energy Kawasaki’s Jacob Hayes relied on his victory in the final race of the night to edge out Husqvarna TiLUBE TUF Racing’s Gavin Faith in the Arenacross class.
In the opening night of the Western Regional Arenacross Lites Class Championship, it was A&Y Racing Honda’s Daniel Herrlein who grabbed the spotlight.
The second and final night of action on Saturday, January 24, was highlighted by a sold out crowd celebrating the first ever Military Appreciation Race. In another compelling night of competition in which a tiebreaker was needed to determine a winner, Husqvarna TiLUBE TUF Racing’s Kyle Regal broke through for his first overall victory of the season in the Arenacross class, edging out ThermoTec Yamaha’s Bobby Kiniry.
In the conclusion of the opening round of the Western Regional Arenacross Lites Class Championship, Motosport.com/Haeseker Racing KTM’s Daniel Blair extended his points lead with his first win of the season.
After five rounds, Kawasaki rider Matt Goerke still leads the Arenacross-class Championship after finishing fourth overall on Friday night and third overall on Saturday night. He has 140 points and next best is Hayes with 128 points. Regal is third with 109, followed by Steven Mages with 105 points and Travis Sewell with 99 points. Kiniry is eighth with 85 points.
