MURRIETA, CA – November 4, 2024 – (Motor Sports NewsWire) – FMF KTM Factory Racing Team Landers and Grant Davis have clinched the 2024 AMA National Enduro Series NE Pro2 Class title with a victory in this weekend’s final round of the year at the Gobbler Getter.
Davis has been a picture of consistency in National Enduro this season, picking up five class wins on his way to the championship onboard the KTM 250 XC-F in Maplesville, Alabama.
After recently earning the Grand National Cross Country (GNCC) Series XC2 250 Pro crown, Davis came into the final round of National Enduro in the box seat to clinch the NE Pro2 championship, which he managed to achieve with a controlled performance at the finale.
Grant Davis: “It was a fun day and we’re really excited to take home the NE Pro2 title this weekend. To clinch with a win is always a good feeling, so a big thanks to the team, we’re really happy to get this done here at the final round.”
FMF KTM Factory Racing’s Ben Kelley made his return to National Enduro this weekend riding his KTM 350 XC-F – filling in for the absent Johnny Girroir – and quickly adapting to the series again to finish an impressive fifth overall.
Kelley was able to build momentum as the day wore on, finishing strong across the final two tests and taking a lot out of the experience in the NE Pro1 category, despite an extended time away from the National Enduro Series.
Ben Kelley: “It was good! My first National Enduro in a year and I honestly felt solid. I was a little stiff in the first part of the day, trying to find the flow while still being aggressive, and I feel like I was able to improve into the second half of the race. I was happy with how everything went, so I feel like I can keep building from here, and it was a good day.”
