Round 5 - AMA EnduroCross Series
BOISE, Idaho – FMF KTM Factory Racing’s Trystan Hart maintains the lead in the 2022 AMA EnduroCross Series championship after taking fifth overall at Round 5 in Boise, Idaho. In an all-out battle for the coveted EX Pro title, Hart fought his way to 5-6-8 finishes at the penultimate round of racing.

He started the night off strong, taking second in both timed practices and fifth in Hot Laps. In the first moto, Hart made a costly mistake by tapping into the gate, which sent him near the back of the pack off the start. He was able to quickly make several passes but struggled to find his flow, ultimately finishing fifth.

In Moto 2, Hart found himself buried off the start and had to quickly get to work making passes. He moved into seventh by mid-race and continued to charge towards the front. On the last lap, he moved into fifth, but was overtaken shortly after to finish in sixth. 

Mid-pack off the start of the final moto, Hart made another early dash to position himself towards the front. Shortly after breaking into the top-five, the points leader made a mistake in the matrix section and dropped all the way to the back of the field. Putting on a good charge right away, Hart was able to reclaim a few positions to finish eighth in the last moto. 

With 5-6-8 finishes on the night, Hart’s score of fifth overall allows him to maintain the red number plate as he carries a one-point lead into the championship finale. 

Trystan Hart:“Boise is done and dusted. It wasn’t ideal for me but I’m still in one piece and ready to keep pushing. I’m ahead by one point in the championship so it's going to be a dogfight at the final round in Reno, for sure.”
