Wimmer's Fastest
Qualifying Time at Ballance MX Nets Second ATVSource.com Award of the
Season
Bowling Green, KY (April 7, 2009) -- Although
Rockstar Makita Suzuki's Dustin Wimmer saw his
two-race win streak snapped at round three of
the AMA Pro ATV Motocross Championship, the ATV
Bluegrass National at Ballance MX, the
Pennsylvania native did capture the $100
ATVSource.com Fast Qualifier Award on Sunday
morning.
ATVSource.com puts out $100 for the fastest
qualifier in timed qualifying for the AMA Pro
ATV class at every round of the ITP Tires/Moose
Racing AMA ATV Motocross Championship.
Oddly, Wimmer's qualifying speed didn't hold
up in the races, as both Quad Riding School
Honda's Joe Byrd and Monster Energy Kawasaki's
Chad Wienen topped him in the day's race
results. Wienen, however, took the fast
qualifier award at the previous race in Pell
City, Alabama, but suffered through mechanical
woes in both motos, while Wimmer won the races
handily.
Wimmer did score the ATVSource.com Fastest
Qualifier Award at the season-opening event at
Glen Helen in California, and also won the race
overall with 2-1 scores.
Wimmer will look to net his third $100 check
from ATVSource.com at the next round of the
series, the Birch Creek National in Danville,
Virginia on April 18th and 19th. Surely Byrd,
Wienen and the rest of the field will be putting
in hard laps to try to stop the defending
series' champion. For more information, visit
