Creamer Regains ATV MX Lead Going Into Spring Creek National
Millville, MN (June 10, 2010) - The 2010 ITP/Moose Racing AMA ATV Motocross Championship is making its first trip to Spring Creek Motocross Track in Millville, Minnesota this weekend. Heading into Round 6, Rockstar Makita Suzuki's Josh Creamer has again taken the lead from his teammate and two time Defending Champion, Dustin Wimmer. The Suzuki duo may have dominated so far, but Team Yamaha newcomer Thomas Brown and Baldwin Motorsports PEP's Josh Upperman are hoping Spring Creek will give them the chance to stay in the chase for the championship.
The heated battle between Rockstar Makita Suzuki teammates Josh Creamer and Dustin Wimmer has been unmatched so far this season with the teammates constantly swapping the points leads between them. While Team Suzuki continues to battle each other, Team Motoworks Can-Am is still battling bad luck. Chad Wienen suffered a broken steering component during Round 5, as well as several crashes throughout the season. His teammate John Natalie was passed in the last few feet before the finish line during Round 5, and has had to battle back from crashes and bad starts all season. Both riders are hoping to change their luck this weekend in Minnesota, and start battling for the win.
Spring Creek Motocross Track has been racing for 47 years, and will be hosting the ATV Motocross Championship for the first time ever this coming weekend. Racers and spectators alike are excited to enjoy the facility which includes a "Kid Zone" featuring a basketball court, volleyball, badminton, 4-square, a skate park, a Rainbow Play Set, a BMX course, and a sand beach off of the beautiful Spring Creek. Racers will be parking in the level campgrounds, and have access to air-conditioned flushing restrooms, and water fill-up stations. Spectators can also escape the heat in the air-conditioned concession area, including TV's with live lap times throughout the day.
