places, even extreme. Report - Results

Full
Gas Sprint Enduro Series Rd 5 Highlights Ryan Sipes took an impressive win at the LL Raceway
Sprint Enduro in Fairmount, Pennsylvania. He came from behind in
the final test to edge out Tely Racing’s Steward Baylor and
Rockstar Energy Husqvarna’s Josh Strang for the overall victory
in what turned out to be a real cliffhanger of a race.
After struggling with the conditions on Saturday, Sipes entered
Sunday’s round sitting 22 seconds out of the lead. However, the
Rockstar Energy/Leatt/Maxxis Husqvarna rider turned in an
incredible charge, winning all three of Sunday’s Cross tests and
finishing with two seconds and a third in the Enduro tests to cut
into Strang’s lead. A crash by Strang within sight of the finish
in the last test of the weekend sealed the win for Sipes and
dropped Strang to third overall behind Baylor in the final
results.
