“Nobody gave us much of a chance at the beginning of the year with this new bike, but we proved that it is consistent and it can be really fast,” Turner said. “We have proven all season long that this bike is the real deal and we showed them again tonight. It was exciting to cap the year with a win and to win this trophy means a lot to me and my guys. I couldn’t have done it without them.”

Turner finished the season with two near-identical passes on the “Big Pig” Nitro Harley, blasting a 6.387/209.93 and a 6.349/211.09 in the final over a struggling Jake Stordeur who had to shut it off near halftrack to get the double. And the scary part? This is only the beginning for this team.

“We can do big things with this bike and next year we are going to step it up even more and do things that have never been done before in this class,” Turner said.
