WICHITA, Kan. - AMSOIL Arenacross hosted the second round of the Race to the Ricky Carmichael Cup inside INTRUST Bank Arena in Wichita, Kansas for the first time since 2013. The constant back-and-forth action between Team Babbitt's Monster Energy Kawasaki's Jacob Hayes and Rockford Fosgate TiLube Honda's Chris Blose left fans on the edge of their seats. Meanwhile, GPF Babbitt's Online rider Ryan Breece showed race fans why he has the 1W plate by grabbing his third-consecutive overall Arenacross Lites win.

The first Main Event saw Blose take the holeshot with Hayes close behind in second. Hayes tipped in the sand turn on lap 4 and fell back to fourth, allowing Ryan Breece and Sportland 2 TZR Kawasaki's Travis Sewell into second and third, respectively. Hayes slowly made his passes stick to retrieve his second-place position by the finish. Blose took the win, Hayes second and Sewell third. 

The second Main Event saw Hayes take the holeshot with Blose close on his rear wheel. The duo continued this way with less than two seconds separating them. WCMC TZR Woodstock KTM's Daniel Herrlein rode to a consistent third-place finish in the second Main Event.   Only one point separates Blose and Hayes heading into Portland for Round 3 of the Race to the Ricky Carmichael Cup inside Veterans Memorial Arena on April 21.

The third round of the AX Lites West season started off with 2017 defending West Coast champion, Ryan Breece, taking the holeshot and leading  all 15 laps to secure his third-consecutive AX Lites Main Event of the season. His teammate, GPF Babbitt's Online rider, Isaac Teasdale, rode a consistent race to finish second and Plumbing Plus rider, Kevin Moranz, rounded out the top three.
