 The victory tied him for the most points this year in Grand
National Championship competition. Coolbeth edged out the winner of
the May Springfield Mile, Bryan Smith, and his #42 Kawasaki, by .01
seconds. Jared Mess, rode his No. 9 Rogers Racing Harley-Davidson to
a third place finish only .13 seconds behind Coolbeth. It was a very
close, a very competitive, and most importantly, a very
crowd-pleasing Grand National Championship final on a beautiful
Sunday afternoon of the Labor Day weekend.
Jake Shoemaker recorded his second top five in as many races as he
rode his No. 55 Hot Shot Motors Kawasaki to fourth in Illinois.
 Henry Wiles rounded out the top five on his No. 17 Don's Kawasaki.
Wiles has been quietly consistent this season and sits fifth in
points following what was his fifth straight top 10.
Just a pair of races remain on the AMA Pro Flat Track schedule, and
it will be dog fight between Coolbeth and Smith to determine who
will be the 2014 AMA National Champion. The large majority of race
fans are pulling for Coolbeth and his fan favorite Harley-Davidson,
but one thing is for sure - it will be a great finish to 2014
season!
