Bowling Green, KY (4/13/2008) -
Dustin Wimmer continued his quest for perfection
in the ITP Tires/Moose Racing AMA/ATVA Pro
ATV Championship Series presented by Parts
Unlimited, winning Moto 1 Sunday at Ballance
Moto X. Wimmer (191 Team MSR/Suzuki/Yoshimura/Pro
Taper) remains perfect in ATV Motocross competition
by winning his fifth consecutive Pro Moto.
John Natalie (No. 13 Can-Am) took the Suspension
Systems Holeshot Award and dominated the
early laps of the race. However, Natalie
went wide in the NASCAR turn on lap seven
and went off the track. Wimmer took the
lead and dominated the event. Natalie was
unhurt and returned to the track to finish
17th. Doug Gust (No. 55 Team Rockstar/MSR/Suzuki/Yoshimura/Pro
Taper) finished second, ahead of the No.
9 Monster Energy Drink/Kawasaki of Josh
Creamer.
"Fortunately for me, John (Natalie)
came off the bike, but you have to make
the most of your opportunities," said
Wimmer. "I was catching him a little
bit before that, and luckily I was where
I needed to be when I needed to be there.
"I'm thinking about six in a row,"
added Wimmer, talking about today's second
moto. "How can't you?"
Moto 2 is scheduled for 3 p.m. today. Please
