Joel Hetrick celebrates seventh ATV MX National Championship“Amazing weekend @briarcliff_mx for the season finale of @atvmotocross. Moto 1 was a little muddy, came out p2 and made a quick pass for 1st on lap one. Finished up P1 in that moto. Moto 2 I snagged the start and was able to hold it to the end. Felt great on my @phxracingatv @yamahaatvracing YFZ 450r, the machine was just dialed in. Great year of racing for me and the team, stoked on my performance and ready to build on it. Love this stuff, next up QXON [Quadcross of Nations]. Huge thanks to my team and support group, seriously couldn’t do any of this without them!” he said on Instagram.
