Palm City, FL (4/28/2016) – JB Racing’s Jeffrey Rastrelli took a top five Pro class finish at round three of the 2016 AMA ATV Motocross National Championship held at Muddy Creek Raceway in Blountville, TN.

JB Racing's Jeffrey Rastrelli finished fifth overall

Rastrelli started the day off strong with an impressive ride in the morning timed qualifiers. “I got second behind Chad Wienen, so we were looking really good going into the motos,” explained Rastrelli.

The track conditions changed up from the timed qualifier to the first moto, causing Rastrelli to struggle a bit more than he would have liked. Rastrelli still put in a strong, consistent ride to finish the moto in sixth place.

The second moto is when Rastrelli’s speed really showed. “We made some changes and came out second in the start,” said Rastrelli. From there, Rastrelli lost only one position on the eighth lap to Joel Hetrick. Rastrelli went on to claim a third place finish for fifth overall.

“It was a good step in the right direction after Texas. We are getting back on the right track, so I am really happy. It is not where we want to be, but the sixth place in moto one made us lose our spot on the podium. These guys are all fast ,so I can’t be too upset with a sixth place. I am going to put some motos in and get that back up there on the podium, just like I was in Daytona.”

Rastrelli credits his great sponsors for helping him get to where he is. “The PEP shocks are just great. Matt Blommel was at the race with me this weekend, we made some adjustments, and it was working really well. The Goldspeed tires were really awesome as always. I can’t thank them enough for the all the traction I get.”

Rastrelli plans on stepping up his training with his sights set on a podium finish for the fourth round of the AMA ATV Motocross National Championship, which will be held at Ironman Raceway in Crawfordsville, IN May 7-8th.
