Walnut, IL - The racing action headed west to Sunset Ridge MX in Walnut, IL for Round 4, and once again the track has several big chances including a completely new pro section, which is the most challenging of the year with a whoops section and rhythm section of 6 descent size doubles in a row. Most are taking on two at a time, but a few are tripling through the section, which requires perfect timing

In addition to the new pro section, another set of whoops has been added to the main track along with some other minor changes, but there are still plenty of jumps with several big air table tops.

#1 Dustin Wimmer was looking as smooth as ever through the Pro section, and the recorded the fastest lap-time in both Pro practices

Admin

#9 Josh Creamer still doesn't feel he has the new rhythm section dialed in, but it didn't slow him down much as he recorded the 2nd fastest lap times in both practices & the Rockstar / Makita / Suzuki Duo dominated the track on Saturday, but Sunday is when it counts, so it will be interesting to see who pulls out the fastest time in the morning qualifier

Admin

Hometown favorite, Can-Am / Motoworks' Chad Wienen, can't be counted out either because he rounded out the top three on Saturday, and his time was only .124 seconds slower than Wimmer's time.

A little update from the track...weather is perfect, partly cloudy with temps in the 70's. any rain showers are supposed to hold off until later this evening, so looks like everyone should stay nice and dry.

Joe Byrd will not be racing in the Pro class. his injuries he sustained in a wreck shortly before round three were more extensive than originally thought. It is uncertain at this point when he will be back.

Pappy
05-16-2010, 12:24 PM
Thomas and Pat Brown were really battling hard, reports are that Pat was looking really strong. Upperman narrowly edged out Natalie for the holeshot, Creamer was challenged by Wimmer early but was able to get a few seconds ahead and held to the checkers.

Warnia got out of shape and cased one of the whoops in the Pro section and slowed after that. Goodman and Gibson battled the entire moto. Lawson lost his clutch and then he ran over one the video guys!

Simon MX49
05-16-2010, 01:19 PM
Awesome to see Upperman get his first moto win!!!

Lets hope he can do it again in moto 2!!!!

Pappy
05-16-2010, 01:23 PM
Wienen went to the inside of Natalie when he hit a kicker and it put him into Natalie. Chad is fine, but Natalie busted his hand up along with his hip from the incident and is pretty banged up. Chad will be ready to roll for moto 2, Natalie will be feeling it in moto 2.

Rain is spitting at the track now, nothing major so lets hope it doesnt impact moto2.

Joel Hetrick had quad issues and was late getting to the gate so he will have the last gate pick for moto 2.

pro motos finished just in time as the rain is now falling.

Thomas Brown snapped his axle right off the start and could not continue.

Pat brown's fuel line came off and his quad quit.
