Too Long; Didn’t Read: Recaps and Results From Saturday at the JS7 Spring Championship

Winning is the ultimate reward for the endless pursuit of performance. It’s what drives us to continually refine, innovate, and improve our products. It’s what sets the bar higher each and every season. And when you have the best riders in the world testing and pushing the limits on every product we build, that bar is set at a very high level. The result of all this testing, refining, and winning is a product line that delivers performance that isn’t just race proven, its championship proven.

This is THOR. This is The Feel of Moto.

We know no one likes to read long race reports or sit around and watch live timing and scoring. So we are here to help with some quick recaps and results from Saturday at the JS7 Spring Championship at Freestone.

Note: This post will continue to update through the day.

Ryder D Overcomes Early Crash to Take Open A Pro Sport Title

Wow! What a performance from Ryder DiFrancesco in the final Open A Pro Sport moto. After winning the first two motos, Ryder D went down early in the final moto and was basically dead last. But he dug deep and made his way all the way back to fourth to capture the title!

Gavin Towers got the holeshot in the final moto, but Gage Linville was a man on a mission and quickly took over the lead. He was never challenged from there and took the moto win. 

Chance Hymas went down in the first turn. He did a couple laps before eventually pulling off.
