Smith, who has not won a game this season, controlled the entire time. With a career-long best score of 6.655, he qualified first and defeated MSR colleague John Hall in the final round on Sunday. Between, Smith also triumphed in Saturday’s GETTRX Pro Stock Motorcycle All-Star Callout, a bonus race with a $25,000 reward that pits the best eight riders in the class according to their qualifying performances from the previous year.
