The Antigo Off-Road National looked more like a mud bogging event than a short course weekend. Despite the conditions, some things never change like CJ Greaves smacking everyone in Pro 4.

Greaves has never lost a Pro 4 points race at Antigo since the track was added to the Championship Off-Road schedule in 2021. A weekend sweep this year means he now has ten straight victories in the class there (the non-points Pro 2 vs. Pro 4 Kyle LeDuc Memorial Cup, which his cousin Kyle won in 2024, is not included).

After winning the Saturday race in the dry, where he took advantage of Jimmy Henderson’s late tire failure, Greaves faced more precarious conditions Sunday. Rain throughout the morning led to mud and pooled water that the classes before Pro 4—save for 170/200 SxS, 570 SxS, and Short Course Kart, whose Sunday races will be made up later in the season—kicked around.

The mud led to hell breaking loose from the start when Cole Mamer flipped multiple times and back onto his wheels. At the front, Greaves battled with Mickey Thomas.

“I was searching for new lines and that’s hard to do when sometimes you got to open up the inside in different spots and you’re trying different lines,” explained Greaves. “I think I was the first one to go to the top of the oval and just commit to the top and going around everything. I started going around the single in the left-hander, I could see Mickey, I could hear him peeking in there and he ran into me a couple times over there coming off the oval. I think that’s what ended up biting him in the end. I was doing a little bit different line and he was coming in tigher and we crisscrossed in the same spot almost every time. I think he got on the brakes a little bit hard and ended up stalling it.

“I had a great time. It was a blast to be able to run multiple lines. Not very ofen do we get to run a lot of different lines here and make it work. Not very often is the leader going outside and giving up the inside in a lot of corners. We were just sending it.”

Thomas was eventually knocked out of contention when his truck stalled, relegating him to sixth. Henderson finished second again ahead of Adrian Cenni.

“It was one of those deals that if you want to continue the streak and stay undefeated for five years straight, you got to take a little risks,” Greaves continued. “I was willing to take the risk, move around on the track, and just commit to my truck.”

Greaves wasn’t the only Pro driver to break out the broom (do those even work on mud?) in Antigo. In fact, only two of the seven Pro classes saw different winners on Sunday as the mud dug in.

Connor Barry scored his first Pro Lite win of 2025 on Saturday, and was leading the early laps the next day before a hard landing destroyed his left-front control arm. John Holtger, with his hood flying all over the place, drifted past Barry and dominated the second half.

Pro SPEC saw a pair of first-time winners. Avery Hemmer dominated for her maiden win in the class on Saturday, only to finish fifth in Race 2 after falling into an early deficit. Nick Visser seized the chance and raced a mistake-free day, pulling away as Dylan Parsons fought off Draxton Szymik.

Jeb Bootle beat Owen VanEperen in both Pro SxS races for his first victories as a Polaris factory driver.

Former monster truck driver Joe Sylvester made his return to short course after 11 years away from the discipline. He finished fifth in Race 1 before joining Holtger and Matt Wood on the Sunday podium.

“It was tough. The track was extremely tough,” Sylvester commented. “Just seeing guys fall off one by one, I made a mistake going into (Turn) 1 and almost cost me the truck. I thought it was going right into the wall, but we were able to gather it back up and get back up here on the podium.”
