Davenport finished 2nd overall in the
90cc Auto class & now holds 2nd place
in the points chase of the class as well |
Mushin Racing's Maci Devenport wasn't about
to let the big boys of the team out do her on
the hilly, clutch churning circuit of Unadilla
Valley Sports Center in New Berlin, New York
during Round 9 of the 2010 AMA-ATV Motocross
Championship. Competing in the 90 Auto Senior
( 12-15 ) class, she was wide open, attacking
the ups and downs of the layout and, when all
was said and done and the last elevation change
was conquered, Devenport had put Mushin Racing
on the podium in the class once again. Finishing
2nd, she added to her total podium finishes
in the class, bringing the count to seven for
the season. In the overall series' points standings,
after nine of the eleven rounds, Devenport held
down the second place overall position in the
90 Auto Sr. class, just one point out of first.
Maci's performance in New York added to the
big boy's podium count of five at the event,
bringing the Mushin Racing team's total podium
appearances at the Unadilla Valley Sports Center
to six.
