2016 AMA ATV Motocross Round #10 Red Bud MX Buchanan, MI July 30, 2016

Root River Racing’s Josh Upperman continued his late season run, scoring his fourth top five of the season. He finished fourth in both motos and sits fourth in points.

“I like this track a lot; it definitely separates the men from the boys,” said Upperman. “It’s awesome to be back up front and run up front with the big guys. I had to put my head down and keep charging. Joel, Chad and Jeffrey really had their bikes dialed in and I was just trying to keep pace with them. It was a tight race and I got a fourth. I really wanted to gain some points, but there is a lot of racing left.”

Maxxis / Elka’s David Haagsma finished sixth in the first moto and fifth in second for a fifth place overall. That finish moves him to fifth in points in his first full season ATV Pro MX competition.

“I had trouble with starts in both motos, so I had to do a lot of work today,” said Haagsma. “We have to get up front early to try to battle those guys up front. I’m just as fast as these guys, but the starts are hurting us. I battled with Natalie in the first moto and he’s just a great rider. He’s been doing this forever and he knows racing lines. In the second moto, I was able to pass Natalie and get fifth overall. The track was gnarly, but it’s always a lot of fun.”
