#46 Aaron Fox, taking 2nd place! Billy "The Bullet" Hamill, winning like the Champion he is. Trophy Presentation: Aaron Fox (left) Billy Hamill, and Shawn McConnell (right).

Any mistakes below are made by me (RC Jones) The runoff and semi and last chance were a little confusing, but I think the top riders got to the final. (As messy as that turned out to be.) The crowd was really rooting for #6 Shawn McConnell for his comeback wins to get to the final. #46 Aaron Fox wowed the crowed with his wins and a great finish. Aaron came very, very close to winning before the crash...
