>> Henry Miller has officially hit the radar large this year. The #81 has been a regular inside of the top 15 and has two top ten finishes to his credit this year. On top of all of that he has been awarded four FMF Privateer Power Awards as well as one RC Hard Charger award. Henry also finished 17th in points after missing the first four rounds in the 450 class due to the fact that he was racing in the 250 class. Miller moved up to the 450 class after struggling with bike prob- lems in the smaller bore class.
The Triggr Racing rider started 17th in race one and almost was outside of a points paying position after the opening five minutes of racing. Ten minutes rac- ing went by and Miller was back to his way and started to puck off riders inching himself towards the top 15. The # 81 did he best and at the end he was able to get by Mosiman, Alix and Chisholm to secure 16th. The Triggr Racing backed rider started 13th in race two but was quickly pushed outside of the top 15 after opening laps. Henry worked hard to get those positions back even getting ahead of Dean Wilson briefly before crossing the flag in 12th. Miller has done exactly what he has needed to this year, only time will tell if he did quite enough to re- ceive better funding come 2018.
