#97 Justin Noss claimed the 2nd Spot in
Moto One over Jeremia Warnia & Noss
would go on to claim the 2nd Spot in Moto
2 as well for a sesoon best 2nd overall |
Yamaha backed racer, Justin Noss had his new Yamaha
YFZ450R dialed in, thanks to the help of friend
and mechanic, Chris Riley, who is sitting out of
the racing action due to an injury. Noss shot off
the line in third place in moto one and was keeping
a blistering pace as he chased down Warnia. A bobble
by Warnia in moto one allowed Noss to take over
second place and hold his position all the way to
the finish line.
Moto two was almost a repeat for Noss as he was
third off the line again behind Jeremie Warnia.
Noss once again was able to slip by Warnia to
take a 2-2 finish putting him in second overall,
his highest finish so far this season. “It
feels really great to be up on the podium again.
I have to thank my mechanic and friend, Chris
Riley. He has done an awesome job with my bike,”
said Noss who is now sitting in third in the Pro
Production points chase.

both motos, but a bobble in moto one cost him
several positions and left him to finish in third
place, while mechanical issues late in moto two
