Getting a great jump off the line at the first round was Rockstar Energy/Factory Husqvarna Racing's Josh Strang, earning him the $250 All Balls Racing holeshot award. Strang was battling a foot injury in 2017, but is looking healthy and confident as we head into the fourth round this year. This weekend he is looking to battle for a podium finish and possibly his first win since the 2016 Tomahawk GNCC.

After a disappointing start to the season, AmPro Yamaha's Ricky Russell is hoping his bad luck streak is over. R. Russell was on a mission in Georgia, leading the first two laps before disaster struck and a stick caused a mechanical issue with his radiator. Ultimately, R. Russell was unable to finish the race. R. Russell is looking to make his way back to the podium this weekend.

Trail Jesters/KTM's Ben Kelley holds the early lead in the XC2 250 Pro class with two consecutive wins at the first three rounds. Coastal Racing/Husqvarna's Pascal Rauchenecker has been off to a strong start and he has finished on the podium at the first three events. FMF/KTM Factory Racing's Josh Toth earned the win at round one, and then battled through the Florida sand to finish second at round two. Toth had some misfortune in Georgia, catching his hand in a vine and leaving him unable to contest for the win. Rauchenecker's teammate Craig Delong is currently fourth while KR4/Husqvarna-rider Liam Draper rounds out the top five in the XC2 250 Pro division heading into this weekend.

The FMF XC3 125 Pro-Am class has seen three different winners in three events. Coastal Racing/Husqvarna's Alex Teagarden took the win at round one, but has since suffered some unfortunate luck. He's looking to return to his winning ways and see victory this weekend. FMF/Maxxis/RPM KTM's Jesse Ansley scored the second win in his home state of Florida and currently sits third in points. MCS Racing's Cody Barnes took home the win at round three and sits second in points. Raines Riding University/Yamaha's Jason Raines currently holds a six-point lead, but has yet to earn a win in the class. Raines will look to contest for his first win this weekend.
