Edmisten would later have bike problems handing the win to Freeberg with Dustin in 2nd. Moto 2 of the A class Dustin pulled the holeshot from the very 1st gate everyone else choosing middle to outside gates, Dustin put his head down and charged as hard as he could however with the pressure from Freeburg, Dustin would make a mistake in the whoops and go over the berm.
