Adelanto, CA (7/30/2009) -
Motoworks traveled north to Adelanto, Ca, where
they would compete at Round #5 of the ITP Quadcross
series this month. All three riders made the
gates for the Sunday event at Racetown 395.
With Josh Frederick still healing up from Round
#3, Warnia & Smith would saddle up in the
Pro class and the return of Dillon Zimmerman
in the 450 EXP class. Warnia came out swinging
in Moto 1 where he would trail and at times
pressure Factory Yamaha's Dustin Nelson. Nelson
broke the sub frame towards the end and Jeremie
capitalized and took the win. In Moto 2, Nelson
had another good ride out front and Jeremie
rode smart and consistent to post a 6th, good
enough for a 3rd O/A on the day.
Brandon Smith had a day he would like to get
past. Smith settled for a 14th in Moto 1 and
did not start Moto 2. Slight mechanical issues
held him back on the day. Brandon has been very
busy this year with the East Coast MX ATV Nationals
and filling in for Frederick in WORCS &
ITP. That says a lot about a rider when they
suit up when asked, no questions and have the
heart to ride. Brandon is a great kid, just
in a little slump right now and will climb back
soon.
Dillon Zimmerman managed to gear up for his
return after his ugly get off in Phoenix at
Round #4. Dillonv wanted to get back in the
groove and see where he stood. Riding at his
own pace, Dillon continues to get stronger and
get back to his blitzing speed and form in his
ATV racing venture. If all goes well and he
feels likehe's ready to go, Dillon will be on
the line at Washington on his Can-AM for the
Pro-AM in the WORCS event come two weeks.
"We looked good this weekend for the most
part. We've had our issues this year to say
the least, but Johnny and I continue to support
the efforts behind this Can-Am/Motoworks team.
We had more issues today with mechanicals and
crashes but overall Warnia and Smith rode well.
Dillon surprised us with a request to climb
back on the ATV to see where he stood and begin
the process of coming back strong. I'm proud
of his strength and desire to come back so soon."
