|
Arctic Cat's Tucker Hibbert ended his snocross year with wins in both the Pro Super Stock and Pro Open finals, totaling 55 career wins, at the AMSOIL Championship Snocross Series Eastern Nationals in Farmington, N.Y.
While this was the fifth stop on the National circuit, it was the last stop on the tracks for Hibbert.
Hibbert has stepped down on his own to turn his attention to motocross for the remaining 2009-2010 season.
In the Pro Open final, the hole shot went to Polaris rider Levi LaVallee. However, Hibbert was able to get out in the front of the pack. Ross Martin (Polaris) started in the middle of the pack and battled his way up to second-place. In front of his hometown crowd, Brett Bender (Polaris) forged his way up from the last row to get to the third place position. The order stayed the same and at the checkered it was Hibbert, Martin took second and Bender took a well-earned third. Hibbert thanked the fans for a great season and said, "I'm going to go home and sit on my couch for a while." After a hard day of racing, the track was beaten down as 15 riders started out for 16 laps in the Semi Pro Super Stock #2. Mike Bauer (Polaris) got off the hole shot. Within the first two laps, riders started bumping and bobbling. Arctic Cat's Kyle Pallin grabbed a handful of throttle and didn't let go. Pallin and Bauer were only inches away for over half the race. Cat's Logan Christian was breathing down Bauer's neck. The top three stayed in that order for the remainder of the race On the podium it was Pallin in first place, Bauer in second and Christian in third. View complete ISOC race results
