Dustin Wimmer Wins Again |
Brea, CA (3/23/2009) -Backing
up his opening round victory and working to defend
his championship, Dustin Wimmer dominated both
motos of the AMA ATV MX Championship at Millcreek
Raceway in Pell City, Alabama.
In Moto 1, Wimmer was forced to work his way
through the field, eventually taking the lead
from rookie Nick DeNoble. It took Wimmer just
a few laps to secure the lead, and from there
he rode a nearly perfect moto.
With increased confidence and a better gate
pick, Wimmer needed just a couple short laps
before taking the lead in the afternoon race.
His Rockstar Makita Suzuki QuadRacer R450 powered
him to the Moto 2 victory, earning a first-place
finish for the weekend.
“Starting off the season with two wins
definitely has me motivated,” said Wimmer.
He’s motivated, but not over-confident.
“I’m going to take it race by race,
try to be as consistent as possible, and win
another championship for the Rockstar Makita
Suzuki Racing team.”

Wimmer’s teammate and former champion
Doug Gust finished in sixth-place overall for
the weekend. “Getting a good start is
really important this year because the competition
is so much faster,” said Doug Gust. “Hopefully
I’ll be able to avoid any first turn pile
ups and I’ll get my Suzuki QuadRacer R450
on the podium at Bowling Green.”
The Rockstar Makita Suzuki Racing team will
compete in the third round of the 2009 AMA ATV
MX Championship season April 5 in Bowling Green,
Ky.
