Morgantown, WV (3/31/2008) -"Perfection"
was the word of the day for Dustin Wimmer,
as he swept both AMA Pro ATV motos Sunday
during the FMF Spring National at Millcreek
Raceway. In so doing, the Center Valley,
Pa. native's record remains perfect in ITP
Tires/Moose Racing AMA/ATVA ATV Championship
Series.
Wimmer (No. 191 Team MSR/Suzuki/Yoshimura/Pro
Taper)--who won the first moto earlier today,
as well as the two motos in Round 1 in California--started
fifth in Sunday's contest, but quickly crawled
through the field, taking the lead from
ATVRiders.com Holeshot Award Winner John
Natalie (No. 13 Can-Am) on lap eight.
From there, Wimmer checked out from the
rest of the field, taking the victory. Joe
Byrd (No. 7 Honda) was second overall, ahead
of Doug Gust (No. 55 Team Rockstar/MSR/Suzuki/Yoshimura/Pro
Taper).
"This is great," said Wimmer,
who also netted the Ti Lube Top Qualifier
Award earlier today. "This has just
been a dream weekend. We were fast all weekend
and my hat's off to Team Suzuki for all
of its efforts."
Wimmer said he looks forward to Round 3
in two weeks at Ballance Moto X in Bowling
Green, Ky.
"I like Kentucky," said Wimmer.
"It's a little tight, but we're going
to make it work."
The next race for the ITP Tires/Moose Racing
AMA/ATVA ATV Championship Series is scheduled
for April 12-13 at Ballance Moto X in Bowling
Green, Ky.
