Tucker Hibbert (Monster Energy / Arctic Cat / Ram Truck) is hoping to continue his winning ways this weekend in Deadwood, S.D., during rounds seven and eight of the ISOC National Snocross tour. Hibbert has recorded some of his most memorable races at Days of ‘76 Rodeo Ground’s bullring-style track, including his jaw-dropping last-to-first place rally last year that marked his 100th Pro National win.
“I don’t know what it is about Deadwood but there’s always wild racing on that track – bad and good," said Hibbert. "Despite some bad races, I’ve had some big wins in Deadwood. Last year, winning my 100th race will always be one of my all-time favorite racing memories. I’ll never forget that night.”
This year, Hibbert is hot off double wins at the Canterbury National. Immediately after the race, he moved his team and testing operations to Colorado to prepare for X Games Aspen (Jan. 28-31), where he’ll compete for his ninth consecutive gold medal.
"“I feel really strong right now," said Hibbert. "Canterbury was an awesome event for [the team]. We came straight to Colorado and have gotten in some really good riding and testing for X Games. It’s a busy month with a lot of racing and traveling, but I like when the season picks up like this. I’ve always felt like I perform well under pressure.”
Pro Racing action at the Deadwood Snocross Shootout takes place Friday and Saturday, 6-9:30 p.m. Tickets are available online and at the gate. Fans unable to attend the event can watch live online at snocross.com/livestream.
