2009 AMA ATV Motocross Nationals #5 - Sunset Ridge - Race Coverage

I see no real connection

[Pappy]

Pro Moto 1 would soon be on the track as crews and riders took care of their duties at the gate.

[Pappy]

Josh Creamer would grab the holeshot as moto1 was underway!

There are alot of fast classes at the Nationals, but none top the speed and power of the first turn like the Pro's. Pro AM comes close, but it always amazes me at how fast these guys go and it is an awesome dispaly of power and control that I hope everyone gets to see a some point in person.

Creamer out front and would soon see his lead challenged!

[Pappy]

Wienen was wasting no time as he was already setting up on Creamer

[Pappy]

They may be teammates, but winning is winning and both want that satisfaction for themseleves

[Pappy]

Byrd shadows Doug Gust as the pair exits a corner.

[Pappy]

Cody Miller was off to a great start and was running strong as fellow Can Am rider Jeremy Lawson trys to close in on him.

[Pappy]

Goodman leading Brandon Smith early in the moto, however this would change as Miller moved ahead of Harold as the moto wore on.

[Pappy]

Thomas Brown would struggle during moto one and would end the moto in the 20th spot. I have a feeling that Brown will bust loose and he will get his shot at running up front. Super talented rider no doubt!
