FMF/KTM Factory Racing’s Kailub Russell continued his dominance at the eleventh round where he earned his eighth overall win of the season today, September 25.

MCS Racing Suzuki/Obermeyer/Kenda/MX Tech/Fly Racing’s Ricky Russell jumped out to the early lead once the green flag waved and earned the $250 All Balls Racing XC1 Pro Holeshot Award. Russell was able to use his good start to his advantage and avoid the first turn pileup that involved Lojak Cycle Sales/JTR OffRoad’s Jason Thomas and Westfield Powersports KTM Presented by Moose Racing’s Ashburn.
