New Berlin, NY (7/15/2014)
- Wienen Motorsports’ Chad Wienen and Thomas Brown raced their YFZ450Rs to a 1-2 podium sweep in the seventh round of the 2014 AMA Pro ATV series at New York’s famed Unadilla motocross track on Saturday, July 12. The day was nearly perfect for Wienen, who rode methodically to score 1-1 moto finishes and claim his fifth overall win of the year, drawing closer to a third series title in the process.

Brown followed up with strong 3-2 finishes for his fourth consecutive overall podium. In other ATV action over the weekend, Yamaha’s Dustin Nelson finished third in the sixth round of the WORCS off-road series in Cedar City, Utah on Sunday.
The discipline that Wienen applies to his ATV racing was fully evident in Unadilla. He started the first moto in fourth position, settled into the race pace, and then began picking off riders ahead of him. Wienen then advanced into podium position on lap three, into second just before the halfway point, and took over the lead with five laps remaining, opening up a gap from there to score a comfortable win.

The second moto went even better, with the defending series champion slotting into second on lap one, taking the lead on lap four and promptly turning the quickest lap of the race to break away from rival Josh Creamer. This time, teammate Brown sprinted even further toward the front, giving Yamaha the fantastic 1-2 finish.
