Yamaha's Justin Noss claims his 1st Pro ATV Production Overall Win at Racetown 395
Adelanto, CA - Yamaha’s Justin Noss claimed his first ever overall Pro Production win at round number five of the Yamaha ITP Quadcross series, while Golden West Cycles’ Jason Dunkleberger came back from injury to take the Open Pro win.

The hot dry weather, with temp approaching the century mark, took its toll on some racers allowing fatigue to set in but southern California native, Justin Noss was used to the heat and didn’t let that stop him from taking the overall Pro Production win at his hometown track, Racetown 395.

Yamaha’s Noss did not grab the moto one holeshot, but he worked up several places into the number two position behind Can-Am Motowork’s Jeremie Warnia. Noss would hold his ground even as Jason Dunkleberger was pressuring him for the pass and cross the finish line in the number two spot.

In the second moto, Noss came off the line in fourth behind Dunkleberger. Noss and Dunk would battle for a few laps before Noss was able to get past the number 19 Yamaha and begin to chase down Can-Am Epic’s Sage Baker. “I caught up to Sage, but the track was dry and dusty and I was really eating a lot of roost,” said Noss, who knew he only needed to finish in third to claim the overall and played it smart to take his first ever Pro Production win. “I really have to thank Chris Riley, Allen Knowles, CT Racing, Clark Jones at NoleenJ6, Yamaha, and of course my dad, John Noss. They have all stood behind me and given me great support this year. I couldn’t have done it without them,” said Noss who added that this win has given him a boost of confidence going into round six in a couple of weeks.

#19 Jason Dunkelberger claims his 1st Podium finish of the season with a 2nd Place in the ATV Pro Production
Jason Dunkleberger, who missed round four due to a broken bone in his elbow, was back in action and looking faster than ever. In moto one, Dunk was in the top five off the line and was able to make his way into the number three spot before crossing the finish line.

In moto two, Dunk would battle with Justin Noss for several laps before falling back to the number four position. Although he did not take a moto win, Dunk’s 3-4 finishes were enough to earn him the number two spot on the podium.

Jeremie Warnia - Motoworks Can-Am DS450
Motowork's Jeremie Warnia claimed the Moto One Win, but a wreck in Moto 2, would send Warnia back to a 3rd overall to claim the final spot on the Podium

Can-Am Motoworks’ Jeremie Warnia took the holeshot in the first Pro Production moto, but after a brief battle with Yamaha’s Dustin Nelson, would fall back to second. As luck would have it, Nelson came up short on a jump, breaking his sub frame, which allowed Warnia to take over the lead and check out on the rest of the pack and take the moto one win.

Unfortunately, Lady Luck was not with Warnia in the second moto. Warnia would crash hard in moto two, only allowing him to finish sixth in that moto. Warnia was fortunate enough, however, to take the final spot on the podium in the Pro Production class, but now also has him tied for the points lead with Dustin Nelson at 112 points.

Team MCR’s Beau Baron put in two solid motos, taking a 4-5 finish, which put him in fourth place overall. Dustin Nelson had a tough time of things in the first moto when he cased a jump hard and broke his sub frame. Nelson still cruised around the track to salvage points, which put him in 11th place in moto one. Moto two was a different story for Nelson as he made quick work of Dunk and Sage Baker to take over the lead and check out. Nelson’s efforts allowed him to round out the top five for the day.
