Can-Am / Warnert
Racing's AMA Pro ATV MX Report - Muddy Creek
Blountville, TN (6/26/2008) -
With the conclusion of round eight of the AMA
ATV MX Nationals, the Warnert Racing team has
been consistently moving up the points ladder
with John Natalie securely in the top five and
Cody Miller quickly approaching the top ten.
Muddy Creek, which is somewhat of a narrow track
compared to others, played host to all the action
this weekend, and all though rain was in the forecast,
conditions remained dry and pleasant throughout
the course of the event.

As the gate dropped on moto one, Cody Miller
was right in the mix, but Miller got caught in
a pile up and spun around in the first turn, which
sent him to the back of the pack. Miller got back
into the mix and worked himself up to 12th place
before reaching the finish line. In moto number
two, Miller was towards the front in the top five
off the gate but got boxed in and once again found
himself towards the back. Miller again had his
work cut out for him as he began to work his way
back up through traffic. “It was a tight
track and it made it a little difficult to pass,
but I got back up to 11th,” Cody said. With
the end of the season fast approaching, Miller
hopes to increase his points to place within the
top ten at season’s end. “We’ve
done a lot of work and the bike is running really
good, Cody concluded.
Meanwhile, John Natalie was not having a very
good time of things in moto one. John left the
line towards the back and kept his pace to finish
in 16th place. Moto number two was a different
story for John, however. John flew off the line
in 5th place and held strong until lap eight when
he made his move for 4th. John had caught up to
Jeremy Lawson and began applying the pressure.
It wasn’t long before Natalie was able to
pass and take over 4th place, where he stayed
until reaching the checkered flag. John’s
moto two finish put him in 10th place overall
and put him into 4th place in the points race.
The next round of the AMA ATV Motocross Nationals
is scheduled for July 12-13th and will have the
Warnert Racing team heading to Pleasure Valley
Raceway in Armaugh, PA, which is a new facility
for the series, and where the Warnert racers hope
to increase their points standings as we head
into the final rounds of the season.
