Hurrican Mills, TN - The highly competitive Suzuki teammates Josh Creamer and Dustin Wimmer have been battling all season long, and these riders would maintain first and second in points even if they didn't race this upcoming weekend. Creamer has had a season that most riders dream of. Finishing top 3 overall every round this season was just part of what made this year so successful for the rider. Creamer rode each race with a level of maturity we didn't see from the rider last year, and put him in position to become the 2010 Champion.
Impossible is not a word that Dustin Wimmer wants to hear right now. Sitting 40 points behind Creamer, Wimmer has to win both motos to even be in contention for the championship. For most riders, being second in points would be a dream come true, but for Wimmer, it's just not first. The two time defending champion has just two more motos to defend the title.
Motoworks Can-Am rider Chad Wienen and Baldwin Motorsports/ PEPS Josh Upperman are now tied for third place in points. Both riders want that third place overall badly. Wienen has struggled this season with some bad crashes and mechanical failures, but has been able to come back strong in the second part of the year. Upperman is still considered a new comer to the pro class, but after this season, he's an established front runner. Upperman earned his first career overall win this year, and despite a few mechanical issues, has had the best season of his career.
