Stillwater, OK (6/3/2007) - Though
it took him until the third race of the season, Dustin
Wimmer showed the entire field how to win a SuperQuad
Pro 450 race on the WPSA PowerSports ATV Tour as he
dominated Round 3 Sunday at Cooperland Raceway. Chris
Borich won the QuadTerrain Pro Stock final, and Daryl
Rath netted his first Super Sport Side by Side victory.
The Southwestern National will be telecast on ESPN2
on Saturday July 7 at noon EDT.

Lonestar Racing's Keith Little was able to edge
out Suzuki's Dustin Wimmer for the $1,000 Quad
Magazine Holeshot Award, but Wimmer would make
the pass for the lead before the end of the
first lap and never look back. |
Keith Little (No. 12 Lonestar/Honda) came out strong
in the SuperQuad Pro 450 final, winning the $1,000
Quad Magazine Holeshot Award. Wimmer was stronger,
though, taking the lead for good on the first of 14
laps in the final. John Natalie, Jr. (No. 13 Elka,
Maxxis/Honda) finished second after recovering from
serious knee and chest injuries sustained in practice
at the last race. Little finished third, marking his

John Natalie Jr surprised everyone this weekend
as he was able to hold onto the 2nd Spot till
the checkered ahead of Keith Little despite
racing with a torn sternum muscle & knee
tendon damage |
"I got around him (Little) the first lap, and
then put it on cruise control," said Wimmer,
who unofficially retains the points lead going into
the next race in two weeks. "We won a convincing
race.
"I tried to run a good race, and I relied on
my mechanic to let me know where I was in the field,"
added Wimmer. "You try not to look behind you,
but sometimes it's difficult not to."
