2009 AMA ATV Motocross Nationals #7 - Unadilla - ATV Race Coverage

Cody Miller would find himself at the end of the tow rope as well as teh pounding started taking its toll

The 2nd moto was again Chad Wienens as he takes the checkered flag!

The battle for second place was fierce from start to finish. Gust doesnt make many mistakes and if there isnt room to make a run on him then your in for a long day!

Natalie found a few extra feet of track as they approached teh finish line and snatched the position away!

John looks over to see Gust but Doug was forced to the other side as the pair battled across the finish line! Gust had lost his front brakes! It was an awesome sight to see in person:p

That makes 2 in a row for Wienen! He was pretty stoked as well he should be!

Natalie was excited to have found the podium here at Unadilla.

At 42 years of age, most would never suspect Doug Gust of being as fierce as he is in a sport dominated by riders half his age. This would mark Gusts second visit to the podium this season and I wouldnt count out another visit or two before seasons end.

Chad takes over the points lead and I am willing to bet won't be letting go of it easily;)

The podium was complete and another weekend of great racing was history!

While not everyone gets to visit the podium, their finishes are noted and sometimes not reflective upon how well they did .

Josh Upperman continues to climb the ranks has some serious potential as he dials in his program that will eventually put him where he wants to be...and thats in that number 1 spot! Josh went 2-6 to claim the 4th spot

Jeremy Lawson's 4-5 would net him 5th for the weekend
