event in Pontiac, Mich. on Saturday. Martin held a commanding lead until five laps to go, when Hibbert motored by on his Monster Energy Arctic Cat for the win.Just as with several events this season, Hibbert did not have the best of starts but was able to create new lines, to race through some heavy hitters and get the win. Martin continues to stay close in the season standings with the second aboard his Jack Link’s/Dupont/AMSOIL Polaris, while Warnert Racing/Foremost Insurance’s Tim Tremblay took a step back when he was black
flagged for contact with Logan Christian. Christian had been in a podium position but dropped back to fourth after the contact, allowing teammate Garth Kaufman to get the three spot.The AMSOIL Pro Open final went down as one of the highlights of the season, with Tim Tremblay getting a massive lead after a first turn pileup induced a restart. Hibbert and Martin then chased Tremblay in a shootout of the current point leaders. When Hibbert went down on the back straight, it looked as if Tremblay may be in
line for his first win of the season. With seven laps to go Martin worked by Tremblay and AMSOIL/Air Force/Rockstar rider Robbie Malinoski closed the gap in third. The top three finished in that order with Hibbert racing back through the field to challenge Malinoski at the finish.The series returns March 5, with the Hayward Powersports/Polaris National at the LCO Casino in Hayward, Wisc.
Until then, we'll see you at the races,
Team AMSOIL
