AMA ATV Motocross Nationals Round #10 - Red Bud Buchanan, Michigan August 1, 2010

In Moto 1, #20 Josh Upperman edged out #9 Josh Creamer for the Holeshot & Creamer wasn't able to make a move on Upperman & finished in 2nd place

In moto two, Creamer was on fire off the line as he grabbed the holeshot and the lead. Creamer soon came under fire from Chad Wienen and after a short battle, Creamer would fall back to second. From there, Creamer rode a smart and fast race, holding down second place all the way to the finish line, which would put him even closer to the pro points championship with an amazing 445 points.

“I’m one step closer to achieving my goal. I went out there and got good starts and finished well. I’m happy with how everything went today and I have to thank everyone for all their hard work and helping me get to where I am. I am looking forward to Loretta’s and I am hoping to give Suzuki a championship there,” stated Creamer.

Suzuki's Josh Creamer claimed his 10th straight Podium finish in 2010, which extended his points lead to 40 points over reigning champion, Dustin Wimmer. For Creamer, the Championship is now nearly locked up with Creamer only needing at most 10 points in Moto One at Loretta’s to clinch the Championship, and the reality of it appeared to set in for Creamer on the Podium at Red Bud

Baldwin Motorsport’s Josh Upperman grabbed the moto one holeshot and win but it wasn’t easy as he came under fire from Suzuki’s Josh Creamer early in the moto. Creamer would make several attempts to pass Upperman but every time Upperman would shut him out. Upperman would get his second wind in lap nine and put a little distance between him and the rest of the pack and cruise to a first place finish.

In moto two, Upperman was in a close second off the start and was battling hard with Josh Creamer for the lead, but was forced to back off when he came under pressure from Chad Wienen. Upperman would eventually drop back to third after a valiant effort on his part and settle in for a third place finish and the final spot on the podium.

“Both motos went well for me. I would have liked to taken the overall, but I gave it everything I had out there and I made it to the podium. Baldwin Motorsports has done an amazing job and I really have to thank them for all of their support,” Upperman said.
