Ontario, CA (5/10/2011) - GBC Motorsports’ Nick Moser took his best Pro-am Unlimited finish this season as he charged to a second place finish at round number five of the 2011 AMA ATV Motocross Championships.

Sunset Ridge in Walnut, IL was the hosting facility for the weekend’s events and saw good weather and excellent track conditions that allowed Nick Moser to charge off the line and get good starts and work his way through the sandy soil.

In the first Pro-am Unlimited moto, Moser was in eight off the start and quickly moved into fifth place. Moser held his position for several laps before reaching the checkered flag In moto two, Moser got an even better start and charged his way into the number two spot before crossing the finish line. Moser’s 5-2 finishes put him on the Pro-am Unlimited podium in the number two spot, his best Pro-am finish to date.

Moser also stayed the course in the Pro-am Production class, going 6-8 to finish just outside of the top five in sixth place. Moser is currently sitting in eighth place in the Pro-am Production points race.

Pro ATV racer Travis Moore came off of a career best finish at Budd’s Creek was hopeful and looking for his first podium, but luck was not on his side as clutch issues ended things early for him in moto one and in moto two a blown rear shock also slowed his efforts. Moore would end his day just outside of the top ten in eleventh place.

“I’m disappointed for sure, but I am going to use this as motivation to do well at Steel City. I went out there and I did my best and tried to salvage as many points as possible. Like Keith (Little) said, it’s better to be safe than end up crashing and getting hurt when things like that happen,” said Moore, who is currently training/mentoring with former pro ATV racer, turned GBC Motorsports rep, Keith Little.

Round number six of the 2011 AMA ATV Motocross Championships will head to Steel City in Delmont, PA on May 21st – 22nd where Travis Moore will be trying for his first career pro podium with the help of GBC Motorsports and their Bomb Squad series tires.
