Ricky Brabec still fresh off of his DAKAR effort came out swinging for a round 1 Win of the 2017 AMA National Hare and Hound, held at Johnson Valley OHV in Lucerne Valley, CA! Following a mid pack start Ricky was able to battle his way into the lead. With chocolate cake like dirt and no dust the race was a flat out bar banger to the end. With a tight pack at the front Ricky held his lead and his JCR/Honda CRF450X wide open to the finish and proved once again why he wears the #1 plate.
“The race conditions were excellent and everyone was on their A game. The 2017 NHHA field is deep with talent but Ricky Brabec was not going to be denied as he commanded much of the race. The whole team did a great job, Ricky’s determination and our speedy pit crew proved to be key to today’s success.” — Johnny Campbell
