Valcourt, Québec (9/7/2011)
– Motoworks / Can-Am pro ATV racer Josh Creamer
won both pro motos aboard his DS 450 ATV at round
10 of the 2011 New England ATV Motocross Series
to take over the Pro class points lead. Creamer
put together two come-from-behind rides winning
the mud-filled first moto and also the second Pro
moto to post his fifth overall victory of the season,
pushing his class points lead to 10 with only two
rounds remaining.
“Creamer may not have gotten off to a good
start in the motos, but he displayed the composure
of a true champion as he rallied in the mud to
notch two moto wins, take the overall victory
and the overall Pro class points lead. Josh has
won three straight races now and he definitely
has his Can-Am dialed in,” said Jimmie O'Dell,
Race Manager, Can-Am.
The first Pro class moto was delayed close to
an hour as lightning and thunderstorms engulfed
the Hurricane Hills motocross park in Clifford,
Pa. The track was left a water-logged mess, but
the Pro class took to the line in spite of the
conditions. Creamer was the last pro off the line,
but quickly found his way into the top three.
After passing into second, Creamer then followed
early moto leader, BCS Performance / Can-Am DS
450 racer Cody Miller, for a couple of laps before
taking the lead and the win.

A missed shift put Creamer to the back of the
class at the start of the second moto, however,
Creamer pushed his DS 450 into the top three,
again, and soon passed his way into second place.
He then passed for the lead later in the moto
and held on for another overall victory and his
fourth win the last five rounds of racing.
“The weather was horrible. There was a
torrential downpour and lots of lightning before
we were supposed to start lining up and they had
to delay the race for an hour until it cleared.
That made the track really muddy for the first
pro moto,” said Creamer.

Miller finished second in the first Pro class
moto, and paired that with a third-place ride
in moto two. His 3-2 score was good for another
trip to the podium. He also finished second overall
in the Pro-Am class on the day, posting 2-2 moto
scores.
“This has been an interesting season so
far and the competition has been tough, but I
am happy that I have made it to the podium almost
every round,” said Miller.
Two rounds remain on the 2011 NEATV-MX schedule,
with Round 11 slated for Sept. 18, at the MX 101
facility in Epping, N.H.
