Chad Wienen earned his the overall win
at Underground MX |
For moto 1, weather conditons were dry and
overcast but when the gate dropped it was
all about racing. Wienen crossed the SSi Decals
holeshot line out front but was unable to
make it to the second corner holding the front
position. Pressuring the rider in first, Wienen
was able to sweep around the outside of a
burn on the second lap and made the pass for
first stick. Wienen went on to ride a smooth
race and finished the moto with a nine second
gap between himself and the rest of the field.

FOX's
Chad Wienen claimed the Moto One Holeshot
& Win |
Mother nature stopped by for moto 2, and
the rain started coming down heavily when
the Pros were on their sight lap. Determined
to grab another holeshot, Wienen put his head
down and did just that not allowing the muddy
conditions to hinder his racing. Wienen was
able to get out front and have a clear path
to the rest of moto 2 and he grabbed his second
checkers for the win once again with a nine
second lead on the field.

Maxxis'
Chad Wienen grabbed the Moto 2 Holeshot
& held onto the lead from start
to finish to claim his third straight
Moto win to kick off the 2016 Pro ATV
Motocross Season |
"Besides the weather, the day couldn't
have gone any more perfect. Grabbing two holeshots
in a weekend is a big deal and very exciting
for me. My team, Malaska Motorsports and I
have put in a lot of work in the off season
getting our engine program stronger and faster
and pulling those holeshots really attributes
to all of the hours and hard work that went
into it. I am happy to finally be back on
our race routine being every other weekend
from here to Loretta's and I'm ready to get
back to work to keep extending my points lead."
said Wienen.
The series will continue to Round 3 at Muddy
Creek Raceway in Blountville, Tenn. April
