Millville, MN (6/28/2015) – The 2015 Mtn. Dew ATV Motocross National Championship, sanctioned by AMA Pro Racing (ATVMX), hit the home stretch on Saturday with its visit to legendary Spring Creek MX Park kicking off stops at four of the most iconic tracks on the planet to wrap up the season. Faced with some of the most challenging track conditions of the season, reigning three-time AMA Pro ATV Champion Chad Wienen rose to the occasion with a dominant 1-1 performance that gave the Wienen Motorsports / Maxxis / SSi Decals / Walsh Race Craft Yamaha rider his fourth overall victory of the season and extended his lead in the championship.

Spring Creek has rose to notoriety by virtue of its rough and physically demanding layout, with such notorious obstacles as the sand whoops, “Holy Schmit” jump and “Mount Martin.” These lap-after-lap challenges took their toll on the entire AMA Pro ATV field and ended up claiming championship contender Joel Hetrick with a big crash in practice that left the Hetrick Racing / Corrosion Specialties rider battered and bruised for the motos.

A tremendous crowd was on hand to cheer on the world’s fastest ATV riders, and they saw Wienen make the first statement of the afternoon by breaking Hetrick’s qualifying dominance in claiming his first ATVRiders.com Fastest Qualifier Award. Prior to Saturday, Hetrick had earned the award at all six rounds of the ATVMX season.

When the gate dropped on Moto 1, Hetrick fought through the effects of his practice crash to earn the SSi Decals Holeshot Award and lead the field through the first few corners. However, Hetrick’s lead wouldn’t last long as Wienen took advantage of a strong start of his own to move into the first on the opening lap and quickly establish a multiple second lead.
