The
2010 World ATV MX Champion, Chad Wienen,
& one of his biggest fans, "Big"
John Whittle |
Can-Am/Motoworks’ Chad Wienen got off to a
less than desirable start and had to work his way
through a bit of traffic in moto one, but the number
44 was able to work himself into the number four
spot before crossing the finish line. Wienen would
get a better start in moto two and after a heated
three way battle with John Natalie and Josh Upperman;Wienen
would come out victorious, going 4-3 to claim the
second spot on the box.
“I have to thank my sponsors and the Motoworks
team. Johnny (Leach) and those guys have done
and awesome job and I am really happy to start
the season on the podium,” said Wienen.

Motoworks
/ Can-Am's Chad Wienen had battles on
his hands in both Motos as he battled
with John Natalie in Moto 1, but had to
settle for the 4th spot behind Natalie,
but in Moto 2, a spot on the Podium was
up for grabs & Wienen held his line
to finish third after some tire banging
with Joe byrd heading to the checkered
flag, which earned Wienen 2nd Overall

Yoshimura's
#9 Josh Creamer out powered the field both
Motos to grab the Pro ATV Holeshots &
he held on to claim the final Podium spot |
Josh Creamer, who had taken the moto one holeshot,
fell back to sixth place after a close encounter
with John Natalie in moto one, but in moto two,
Creamer was on a mission. Creamer went on to take
the second moto holeshot and led for two laps before
teammate Wimmer would get past him. Creamer would
hold on to his position despite a mid-moto bobble.
Luckily Creamer had a big enough lead on third
that he was able to hang on to second all the
way to the finish line, giving him third overall
for the day. “Yoshimura builds some really
good motors,” stated Creamer in regards
to his two holeshots. “I just want to keep
getting good starts and stay in front,”
he concluded.
