[American Motorcyclist Association] - Jacob Hayes dominates in Tacoma to earn first o
The following is an industry press release...
Steven Mages grabs fourth Western Regional Arenacross Lites class victory TACOMA, Wash. (April 18, 2015) - AMSOIL Arenacross, featuring Ricky Carmichael's Road to Supercross, hosted the second of back-to-back visits to the Pacific Northwest on Saturday inside the Tacoma Dome. The fourth round of the playoff-inspired Race to the Championship featured a dominant outing by Team Babbitt's Monster Energy/AMSOIL Kawasaki's Jacob Hayes, who claimed his fourth overall win of the 2015 season and his first of the Race to the Championship with a 1-1 sweep of the Arenacross Class Main Events. In the Western Regional Arenacross Lites Class, Slaka Wear KTM's Steven Mages posted a sweep of both races in the Pacific Northwest, racing to his fourth Main Event win of the season.Hayes was dominant on Saturday and led every lap of the two Arenacross Class Main Events. Husqvarna TiLUBE TUF Racing's Kyle Regal, the Race to the Championship points leader, had to overcome an eighth-place start and fought to work his way forward, moving into sixth on Lap 6. Just a couple laps later Blose went off the track and crashed while navigating the track's wall obstacle, dropping to ninth. Hayes went on to take the win ahead of Goerke and Motosport.com/Haeseker Racing KTM's Gared Steinke. Babbitt's Online Suzuki's Cory Green finished fourth, while Regal fought his way into fifth. Blose's misfortune left him with a 10th-place finish. Hayes' victory provided him with the privilege of selecting the inversion for the second Main Event. With the help of the Tacoma Dome crowd, Hayes selected the case with eight, meaning half the field would be inverted. Points leader Regal had another solid night and finished on the overall podium.

That same lap Kiniry pulled off the track with an apparent issue and was unable to continue. That allowed Regal to move into fourth and his Husqvarna teammate Gavin Faith into fifth. Regal took advantage of the opportunity to break into podium contention by passing Mages for third on Lap 11. On the ensuing lap, Mages lost a couple more positions and dropped out of the top five. Hayes took the checkered flag just over three seconds ahead of Goerke, with Regal third, TZR Woodstock KTM's Travis Sewell in fourth, and Faith fifth. Hayes was the clear winner when the overall standings were tallied, while Goerke's pair of runner-up finishes gave Team Babbitt's a 1-2 sweep. Regal's podium result in the second Main Event moved him into third overall (5-3), earning the tiebreaker for the position over Sewell (6-4), who earned an additional championship bonus point for winning the RMATV/MC Head 2 Head Challenge earlier in the evening. Green rounded out the top five (4-6). Regal, who entered the night with a six point lead, extended his advantage in the Race to the Championship to eight points over Hayes, who moved from fourth to second. Goerke moved from fifth to third (-11) while Blose, who finished ninth overall, fell from second to fourth (-15). Faith sits in a tie with Blose in fifth (-15). Goerke's (36) pass on Mages (12) secured the runner-up spot overall, giving Babbitt's a 1-2 sweep.
