Longville, MN (February 26, 2019) – Team LaVallee traveled to the East Coast, where Rounds 11 and 12 of the ISOC National Series took place at the beautiful Seneca Allegany Resort and Casino in Salamanca, New York. The warmer weather and rain made the snow change constantly from lap-to-lap, which made for some challenging but great racing for the riders and added excitement for the huge crowd that packed the stands for the 2-day National.
PRO / PALLIN
After ending on a high note at the previous National race in Mt Pleasant, MI – Kyle Pallin was eager for the Salamanca, NY National. On Friday, Round 11 – Pallin was able to make it into the Pro Final via the LCQ.

With shortness of breath from the impact of the sled landing on Pallin, he went in for X-Rays and a CT Scan to confirm that no ribs where broken, just bruised. He was cleared to race for Saturday. For Round 12, Saturday racing, Pallin’s goal was to be as smooth as he could throughout the day. Pallin took a 2nd and 4th in his qualifying rounds and qualified in the 6th place spot for the Pro Round 12 Final.
