Tomac took over the lead on Lap four and by Lap 12 established a 6.6 second lead. Tomac won by a margin of 11.89 seconds over Dungey, who finished second, and Seely, who finished third. Dungey now has 11 podium finishes on the season and Seely has three.

“I have had so many up-and-down races this year, but I was able to put it together tonight,” said Tomac.

Team Honda HRC’s Trey Canard, who is second in season standings, suffered a crash in qualifying and did not race in the Main Event. Dungey has a 67-point lead over Canard.

“I got a good start tonight,” said Dungey. “He [Tomac] made a pass to get by me, and it was a solid pass. He is a good, clean racer.”

“Of course the goal is to win each race that we can,” stated Ryan Dungey after the event. “But sometimes it’s important to remember to ride a safe race and maintain the points lead as we near the end of the series. We still have quite a few rounds remaining and it’s important to finish each on the podium.”

250 Supercross

Bogle jumped out to the early lead with the holeshot and Kawasaki’s Joey Savatgy pulled up on his rear wheel. Yamaha’s Anthony Rodriguez settled into the number-three position.

Husqvarna Factory Racing’s Martin Davalos and GEICO Honda’s RJ Hampshire collided on Lap two, sending Davalos off the track. Hampshire remounted near last place and Davalos withdrew from the race.

On Lap three, Red Bull KTM’s Marvin Musquin, who came into tonight’s race with four wins, rebounded from a bad start to take over the number three spot from Rodriguez. Musquin made a move around Savatgy for second place on Lap 7, but Savatgy answered back. Eventually Musquin took over the position and began to pull away.

“The bike is a rocket ship, and it got me off to a great start,” said Bogle. “We have to take every weekend with the same approach. It’s going to be tough with two races left on the Eastern Regional 250SX Class schedule, but I am going to keep my head down.”

Musquin finished second for the second time the season and Savatgy finished third for the second time this season.

“Once again, the start was key, and I didn’t get the start I needed,” said Musquin. “Second place isn’t bad and I have the points lead still.”

Both Musquin and Bogle have been on the podium at every race this season. With the win, Bogle cut into Musquin’s points lead and now trails by 13 points.

Marvin Musquin
“I felt pretty good today,” stated Marvin Musquin. “I knew that I could maintain my points lead by remaining in second place so I rode a consistent race to finish on the podium.” Musquin is on the KTM 250 SX-F Factory Edition.
