North Adams, MA
(4/13/2012) -With the 2012 NEATV
Motocross season less than 24 hours away,
it seems like a good a time as many to talk
about who will be representing the team
and its sponsors. Coming from the land of
country music only a couple hours west of
Nashville Tennessee in the small town of
Mckenzie to run in the Pro & Pro-Am
divisions this summer is the #969 of Travis
Moore. Travis had a solid rookie season
in the AMA Pro division finishing 9th overall.
He came up to Hemonds Mx for the final round
of NEATV back in October where was able
to grab one of the Pro holeshots and finish
2nd overall for the weekend in his debut
on the Polaris Outlaw.

Team Southside
Polaris'
#20 Jesse Onesti
|
From South of the equator, Argentina
to be exact; to represent not only his
country but his continent as the only
rider from South America on the series;
Max Soto #8 will be competing in the A
classes and Pro-Am this season. This will
be his 2nd time in racing in the USA,
his first was last year at Loretta’s
when he rode one of Joe Byrd’s Hondas
to the podium in an A class. He is very
excited to be here and can’t wait
to get out there and do battle, he just
hopes it’s a warm summer.
Accompanying Max will be Jesse Onesti
#20 who is returning to the team after
coming on board a couple races into the
2011 season and was able to manage a 2nd
overall in Open A and 10 top finish in
4-Stroke A. He’s been training hard
up in Maine all winter long and is looking
forward getting a good start to the season,
picking up where he left off last season.
To finish the trio will be the #99 of
Mark Gehring, making the switch this fall
from Can-Am to Polaris. Mark had a solid
2011 season after an injury sidelined
him for the first part of the season.
Mark has been testing and tuning over
this mild winter and is feeling really
comfortable on the Polaris and has high
expectations for the season.

Wiseco Pistons'
Bruce Gaspardi Jr & Cody Paolella
|
In the B classes Kyle Paolella and his
brother Cody will be running their Outlaws
with Cody coming on board last season
and winning every moto in his C classes
on it and only lost one holeshot on his
way to locking up his 4-Stroke C championship.
Kyle is new to the Outlaw but pumped to
be on it and is looking forward running
up front with his brother all season long.
Bruce Gaspardi Jr from Cheshire MA will
be running his Polaris in the Collegeboy
division were he finished 5th overall
last season. He and Cody were able to
both grab wins in the WORCS season finale
at Speedworld back in November, and that
was the last time Bruce rode a quad.
The final addition to the team is the
#124 of Kellie Moran from Red Bank New
Jersey. Last season she ran the womens
class on her 150cc because she wasn’t
old enough for a 450, she still managed
a few podiums and finished 6th overall
for the season.
