This past weekend we officially kicked off the Snocross season in Duluth, Minnesota. What better way to celebrate Thanksgiving weekend than to watch three full days of high-flying, racing action? And for that, we are thankful!
To start the weekend off right, Sophia Hulsey #800 and Addison Bourdages #330 landed the 1st and 3rd spots on the podium for their Jr. Girls 9-13 final.
Friday’s Sport Lite final resulted in a big win for Kenny Mandryk #102 closely followed by Drew Goskey #725 in 3rd.
Ryley Bester #151 went an impressive 1-2 in his heats and topped the night off on top of the podium, taking 1st in his Sport final Friday night.
Tyler Archambault #901 and William St-Laurent #124 proudly took the 2nd and 3rd places on the podium for Friday night’s Jr. 16-17 final.
The talented Elina Ohman #17 raced her way to the top of the podium in Friday night’s Pro Am Women’s final.
As for the Pro’s, Friday nights in Duluth are for the Amsoil Dominator Cup; a series of head-to-head battles between two riders racing for the cup and $10k!
Kody Kamm, formerly #53 but now proudly displaying his #1 championship number plate, powered his way through the bracket and easily made it to the final round. FXR’s Corin Todd #36 also impressively made it to the final, where both him and Kody raced against Tucker Hibbert.
Kody Kamm clinched the win, closely followed by Corin Todd in 2nd!
Not a bad first day for your FXR racers!
