Suzuki's Josh Creamer on
the podium after he landed in 2nd place
overall after a 4-1 set of moto finishes |
Brea, CA (7/6/2010) - Rockstar
Makita Suzuki continues to lead the ATV Pro
Motocross series, and after podium finishes
for both Josh Creamer and Dustin Wimmer, they
are both at the top of the class. Dustin Wimmer
and his QuadRacer R450 took second place in
the first moto, and teammate Josh Creamer took
the win in moto 2. Creamer was in second overall
for the day and added to his already significant
points lead. Defending champ Wimmer, with his
fourth-place overall finish, is now only 25
points behind Creamer and holding tight to second
place in the run for the title.
In the first moto, Dustin Wimmer and his
championship-winning QuadRacer R450 battled
for the lead. The defending champ was hot
on the back wheels of the leader and was fighting
for the top spot, but the moto ended before
Wimmer could get out front. Wimmer finished
second, while teammate and current points
leader Josh Creamer fought his way to a fourth-place
finish after a rough start held him back.

Dustin Wimmer finished 2nd in the first
Pro moto but had some difficulties in
the second moto with a 4th place finish |
In the second moto, Creamer was determined
to get back on the podium. After setting the
fastest qualifying time in practice, Creamer
knew his QuadRacer R450 had the speed to get
him to the front. Creamer came out of the
gate in third place but made quick work of
taking over the lead. His 4-1 finish for the
day put him in second overall and earned him
enough points to lengthen his lead in the
pro class. Wimmer, on the other hand, struggled
in the second moto and finished fifth, putting
him just off the box with fourth overall.
Wimmer is second in points in the class heading
into Round 9 at Unadilla in New York on July
17th.
