In Pro 2, Bryce Menzies earned his fourth victory of the season in the class, as he managed to hold off a hard-charging Carl Renezeder and Sheldon Creed, who finished in second and third, respectively. Kyle LeDuc proved yet again he looks to defend his Pro 4 Championship with another victory. Menzies had another good showing in  Pro 4, as he finished in second behind LeDuc, while Brian Deegan rounded out the top three.
