ATV Motocross Amateur Race Report - Spring Creek MX
Root River Racing's Sean Taylor Takes Pro-Am Win

2014 AMA ATV Motocross
Round 6 - Links

Millville, MN (7/5/2014) - After a two year hiatus, the Mtn Dew ATV Motocross Championship made its return to Millville, Minnesota to the famous Spring Creek Motocross track for round six of the 2014 ATV motocross season, and despite the long drive for many of the racers to the mid west, once they arrived, it was well worth it for one of the best track in the series, and there was plenty of festivities throughout the weekend to make for an enjoyable weekend for everyone.

While a storm moved in Saturday evening after the second Pro moto, the weather remained pleasant all weekend, and the track was in great condition for the amateur racing action, which was intense in the Pro-Am class despite several of the top contenders missing from the lineup including, Nick Moser, Cam Covil, and Brett Musick who were out with injuries from round five.

While rain was in the forecast all weekend at the Spring Creek MX National, luckily after on and off rain on Friday, the rest of the weekend was dry besides a rain shower that moved in after the second moto of the pro race on Saturday

After a string of four straight fifth place finishes, Root River Racing’s Sean Taylor not only claimed his first podium finish of the year, he claimed the overall win. It was perfect timing for Taylor as he was also featured on the event t-shirt, so all eyes was on the #39 as he went on to claim a second place finish in moto one behind Nic Gennusa.
