Brea, Ca - April 28, 2008
- The fourth round of the AMA/ATV Moose Racing
National Motocross Series saw Team Rockstar /
MSR / Suzuki / Yoshimura / Pro Taper's Dustin
Wimmer (#191) on the podium in both motos
securing second place overall.
The Center Valley, Pa. native grew his points
lead and is looking very good for a possible
series title. Wimmer ran a smart and tactical
race on the challenging track. His 2/2 moto
scores ended up clinching 2nd overall and a good
points harvest.
"In the first moto, I rode steady and didn't
take any chances. It's a narrow track and hard
to pass cleanly on. My Suzuki QuadRacer was
blazingly fast and when I saw a lot of the
points contenders struggling, I just brought it
home."
Teammate Doug Gust (#55) wanted to recreate
his win of the previous round, but with a 3-7
was only able to hang on to some hard earned
points with a 4th overall. "In the second moto I
was in last place after a tangle, but my
QuadRacer R450 took me all the way up to 7th
place at the finish," Gust said.
"It was a good weekend," Team Manager Kory
Ellis explained. "We were able to get through
and hold on to as many points as possible.
Dustin is first and Doug is in second in the
points chase, so I'm happy with that!"
