450 MOTO 1

Hunter Lawrence further extended his points lead with another win in the first 450 moto. The Honda HRC Progressive rider led all but one lap after overtaking Haiden Deegan for the top spot. Lawrence made it look easy as he gained another three points on his championship rivals with nearly a 10-second victory.

Jett Lawrence charged all the way to second after a crash on lap two. The second Honda rider came together with Deegan early on and high sided off the bike while dropping to sixth in the running order. Jett began clicking off fast laps and battled his way back around Deegan for third before cutting the deficit down on Jorge Prado with just two to go. Both of Lawrence’s key passes were made at the bottom of the “The Wall” as he set up both Deegan and Prado to move up in the ranks. Jett crossed the line in second but was nearly 10 seconds behind Hunter.

Prado held on for third in moto one. The Red Bull KTM rider ran up front and kept Hunter Lawrence in sight for nearly the whole race. A mid-moto duel with Deegan saw the Spanish rider overtake the spot before getting his hands full with the defending champ, Jett Lawrence. Prado put up a fight but eventually lost the spot and finished six seconds back.

Deegan led lap one but dropped back to fourth with Garrett Marchbanks hanging on for fifth. Marchbanks crashed hard during the first moto at Washougal but rebounded for fifth here at Unadilla.

250 MOTO 1

Levi Kitchen dominated the opening moto of the day. After starting seventh, the 250 class points leader made quick work with smooth lines and found himself knocking on the door of the leaders. Kitchen slotted into third place and passed Chance Hymas for second, with another move one lap later on Cole Davies for the lead. Once up front, the Pro Circuit Kawasaki rider opened up a 10+ second advantage to show why he’s carrying the red plate. Note that Kitchen hadn’t led a lap since round three and this win earned him maximum points to start the day.

Cole Davies led six laps before finishing second in moto one. The Monster Energy Star Racing Yamaha rider suffered a huge crash during this mornings’s qualifying session but didn’t let that hold him back as he took over the lead early in the race. Davies eventually fell victim to Kitchen on lap eight and gave up critical points in the standings.

Carson Mumford clawed his way to third at the line. The AEO Powersports KTM rider was fastest in the second qualifying session and ran a lonely third for most of the early race. Hymas eventually fell out of second which allowed both Davies and Mumford to move up in the running order. This matches Mumford’s best finish of the season and sets him up for a strong overall finish.

Hymas still finished fourth after falling with Ryder DiFrancesco rounding out the top five.

250 MOTO 2

Championship drama immediately began off the start of the second 250 moto as Levi Kitchen and Julien Beaumer were shot off the side of the track in turn one. This put both championship contenders in dead last as Cole Davies capitalized with the holeshot and early lead.

Davies took full advantage of the situation as he led every lap of the 35-minute race. After a big crash in the morning’s qualifying session, this is a huge rebound for the Star Racing Yamaha rider. He rode a flawless second moto and with it clinched the overall win thanks to 2-1 scores. He’s now just one point out of the championship lead.

Chance Hymas rode a strong race for second in moto two. His quiet ride earned him third overall after going 4-2 on the day.

Ryder DiFrancesco also ran another solid effort to finish third in moto two. 5-3 results put the Rockstar Husqvanra rider fifth overall .

Levi Kitchen rebounded from a dead last start to finish sixth at the line. He fought all the way to the end and made a number of good passes as he put himself in podium contention. The Kawasaki rider moved all the way to fifth but then lost the spot to Brodie Connolly in the final turn. Even with 1-6 scores, Kitchen still earned second overall and continues to lead the points by one over Davies.

Drew Adams was third overall after running up front for most of Q2. Julien Beaumer grabbed the fourth best time but was a full second off of Kitchen’s fast lap.
