. I staged on the front, had a decent start and was 4th or 5th wheel at the holeshot. The first lap felt slow but I knew going off the front that early wasn’t smart, so I sat in. After the first time through the finish line power section, Anthony put in a dig and I was the only one to follow. Leading up to the hard-packed sand pit, I passed him. For the next lap and a half I did most of the work with Anthony on my wheel. When he eventually did pull through after I swung wide forcing him to the front through the finish line power section, he took what seemed like a soft pedal pull, so I knew he was riding defensively. With that in mind, I started attacking him whenever I could with around 2 laps to go. I was surprised to see that he held on for most of them, but I got some separation leading into the sand, which I capitalized on going through the barriers, with a quick remount and clip in. I had a 10-15 second gap with a lap and a half to go that I held off to the finish for the win! It was awesome to see a ton of MRCers racing and spectating and it was great to pull off a win in such a great atmosphere. 23 September 2015 Cat 2/3/4 1st/110
and I literally could not see a thing as I entered a massive dust cloud. You can see it in some of the pictures online but it doesn't do the dust cloud justice!
