rider in a field of 20 ATV Pros qualifying for
today's ATV Stampede at High Point Raceway. The
event marks Round 6 of the ITP Tires/Moose
Racing ATV National Motocross Series Presented

While the top 10 riders were within two
seconds of each other, it was Creamer who set
the pace, winning the Ti-Lube Fast Qualifier
Award. Second quick was Series points leader
Dustin Wimmer (No. 191 Team
MSR/Suzuki/Yoshimura/Pro Taper) with yesterday’s
fastest rider, Jeremy Lawson (No. 16 Team Epic
Can-Am) rounding out the top three.
The qualifying session was a considerable
success for the Kawasaki team with all three
riders making laps in the top 10 with Keith
Little (No. 12 Monster Energy Kawasaki) fifth
fastest and Russell Shumaker (No. 68 Monster
Energy Kawasaki) ninth quick.
"I’m feeling pretty good today," said
Creamer. "The track is really fast, which is
going to make it interesting out there during
the race, but it should an exciting event. I’m
going to concentrate on getting a good start and
staying up front. My quad is working really
well. We made a lot of suspension changes
yesterday, then fine tuned it today and it’s
really hooking up.”
Pro motos are scheduled for noon and 3 p.m.
today. The ATV Stampede will also feature a full
card of Amateur, Youth and Women's racing.
