DAXTON BENNICK
65CC (7-11)
IMAGE / MPG WORDS / KILPATRICK DESIGN / WILSON
>> There were a couple riders that hit the ground on the start of
the last 65cc race, but Daxton Bennick had no issues on the open- ing lap as he shot out to yet another early advantage ahead of
the competition. The KTM of Ryder Gwynn did his best to stick to the rear fender of the North Carolina native, but the Orange Bri- gade supported rider at the head of the field was operating at an unrivaled level. The rest of the pack sliced and diced it up for the podium over the course of the first couple of laps, but it made no difference to Bennick as he floated around the Georgia Dome with unprecedented swagger and style. Not only was Bennick absolutely tearing apart the bowl corners with aggression and speed, he was scrubbing every jump with outright precision and consistency. It was truly a sight to behold as he wheel tapped into the whoops section with each and every lap, hitting his marks without skipping a beat as he demolished the competition and took yet another main event victory.
