Fresh off its first off weekend of the 2017 season, AMSOIL Arenacross returned to action on Saturday night inside the Sprint Center for the sixth round of the championship. After a late red flag in the final 250AX Class Main Event forced a restart with less than five laps remaining, savvy passes in the closing laps allowed TiLUBE/Jack Link’s/TUF Racing Honda’s Jace Owen to steal his fifth overall victory of the season over Team Babbitt’s/Monster Energy/AMSOIL Kawasaki, presented by AP Design, rider Gavin Faith. In the opening round of the Western Regional AX Lites Class, Motosport/ Quick Roofing/Super Charged Energy Yamaha’s Heath Harrison took his third Main Event win of the season. Prior to the Main Events a pair of familiar foes faced off in the RMATV/MC Head 2 Head Challenge with Faith and Owen. After a competitive battle, Owen, the 250AX points leader, emerged victorious to earn an additional championship bonus point that would prove to pay big dividends at the end of the evening. In the first 250AX Class Main Event it was Faith who grabbed the holeshot over TiLUBE/Jack Link’s/TUF Racing Honda teammates Ben Lamay and Owen.
