Surprise, AZ - Yamaha’s Dustin Nelson took the Pro Production win and regained the points lead at round number four of the Yamaha ITP Quadcross series, while Keith Tebeau took top honors in the Open Pro class.

The night time events of the ITP Quadcross series always offer its own unique set if challenges. As the sun sets, and the stadium lights come on, shadows are cast and depth perceptions can be thrown off, particularly in some of the darker areas of the track. “I came out here a couple of days ahead of time just so I could practice at night and get a feel for it,” said Can-Am Epic Racing’s Sage Baker.

Yamaha’s Dustin Nelson didn’t seem to have any problems with racing at night and had a great night despite a nasty crash at round five of the WORCS series just one week before. “I was a little sore and worried about my shoulder holding up, but once I got out there I kind of forgot about it and just rode my own race,” said Nelson.

Nelson grabbed the holeshot in the first moto and held his lead from start to finish despite pressure from Can-Am Motowork’s Jeremie Warnia early on, but Warnia would bobble in his quest for the lead and leave Nelson to take and easy win.

Moto two was almost deja vu for Nelson as he grabbed his second holeshot of the night and led from start to finish. Nelson’s 1-1 pt him on top of the podium for the evening and allowed him to retake the Pro Production points lead. “Everything just wet really well for me out there. My shoulder held up and I was able to set the pace and ride a good race,” said Nelson.
