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.
