Ontario, CA (4/26/2007) - The
20th Annual White Bros. 4-Stroke World MX Championships
proved to be an ITP showcase as Kory Ellis, Josh
Creamer and Dustin Nelson filled the top three
podium positions after a long day on a tough track
in San Bernardino, California.
Yoshimura’s Ellis made it a hat trick
at this event, scoring his third straight 4-Stroke
World MX title. The Suzuki rider, using ITP
Holeshot MXR6 tires, dominated the 2007 race,
which was run on the same Glen Helen Raceway
course as the ATVA National held a month prior
but was much rougher due to the hundreds of
motorcycles also competing here over the weekend.
Ellis came from way back at the start of both
20-minute motos, and both times pulled away
from the field to card a seemingly easy 1-1
moto tally for the overall victory.
Second overall on the day was Josh Creamer,
putting in his best ride yet on the new Monster
Energy Kawasaki KFX450R. Creamer, on ITP Holeshot
MXR6 tires, led portions of both motos while
battling with Team Yamaha’s Dustin Nelson.
The Team Green rider ended up with a 3-2 moto
score for second overall, despite a leaky radiator
hose in the second moto.
Nelson grabbed the first moto holeshot with
his ITP Holeshot MXR6 tires (mounted on ITP
T-9 Pro Series wheels) and was in the hunt in
both races on his YFZ450. At the checkers, 2-3
moto results would land him on the third step
of the final overall podium.
So it was three different ATV brands in the
top three finishing positions, but they had
one big thing in common: they were all running
on ITP.
