Podium for Millican at Sunset Ridge MX

Dalton Millican, riding his Parts Plus Honda, podiumed in the 450A class at Round 5 of the AMA ATV Motocross National Championship Series presented by DWT this past weekend at Sunset Ridge MX Park in Walnut, Illinois.

In moto one of the 450A class, Millican lead from the drop of the gate and found himself in a great battle with Brent Sellers. The two battled from start to finish with Millican crossing the finish line just in front of Sellers.

Sunday's Moto 2 of 450A again saw Millican's Parts Plus machine with the holeshot.  Very soon into the moto, Millican was passed by his closest points pursuer Tyler Hamrick and then by Brent Sellers. Millican held on to the third spot, giving him third overall for the weekend.

The Production A class was not kind to Millican at Sunset Ridge. In the first Moto Millican had a strong fourth place finish. In Moto 2 Millican got pushed wide in the first turn and found himself in last place as he raced his way back up to ninth place. Millican finished the weekend with a seventh place overall in Production A.

"This was a big man's track here this weekend, rough and choppy and I was just not able to get around this place like I should. Due to all the rain and flooding in the Memphis area I have only been able to practice once since the Budds Creek race. That is no excuse it's just the way it is. I will be on my bike come rain or shine until our next race in Pennsylvania," Millican said.
