ITP's #12 Merrill Crose took the win Junior 25+ Class at Aonia Pass
Ontario, CA (4/4/2012) - If the opening round is any indication, the 2012 ATV Motocross National Championship Series is going to be epic. More than 600 entries packed the Aonia Pass MX Park in Washington, Georgia, under perfect racing conditions, setting the stage for a highly competitive, compelling season with considerable promise for the future of the sport.

Team ITP riders had plenty to celebrate after round one. Mounted on a variety of ITP QuadCross MX and Holeshot MXR6 tires and T-9 Pro Series wheels, our guys and gals captured several class wins and made numerous podium appearances. And with ITP’s “MX Bucks” contingency awards as an incentive for every other ITP tire owner, throttle cables were being stretched just that much tighter.

For example, privateer Merrill Crose was victorious in the Junior 25+ class, second in both the Veteran 30+ and 450 Junior A classes, and was fourth in the Open A class. Root River’s Haedyn Mickelson was hot with a win in Schoolboy Junior, third in Schoolboy Senior and fifth in Super-Mini.Benjamin Brocado also claimed a first place in the opening race, in Super-Mini 13-15.

Several excellent performances were recorded by ITP’s talented Pro Am riders, including Brent Sellers, who grabbed third overall in Pro Am Unlimited and fifth in Pro Am Production.

The ten-event series now moves to Muddy Creek Raceway in Blountville, Tennessee, April 21-22.
