Maxxis took the top two spots on the podium at Round 2 of the ATV Motocross Championship series. A decisive victory in the second moto gave Josh Creamer the win, while Dustin Wimmer took second place. The Ballance ATV MX was held April 17-18 in Bowling Green, Kentucky.
Creamer turned in a strong performance at Moto 1, posting the fastest lap time and crossing the finish line less than one second behind the lead rider. He took the Moto 2 holeshot and then lost the lead for a few laps, but ended up in the front position for good halfway through the race.
Wimmer took third place in the first moto and fourth in the second, earning second place for the weekend. He holds a lead in the overall standings, with Creamer in second place.
Walsh Race Craft's Jeremy Lawson scored a place in the top ten at Round 2, finishing seventh. Lawson is eighth in the overall standings.
The top of the Pro Am podium also belonged to Maxxis at the Ballance ATV MX, with a victory for Joel Hetrick. Hetrick set the fastest lap time on the amateur track Saturday, and came back and set the third fastest lap time on the Pro track the following day. "Setting the third fastest lap time was a big deal to me. However, I'm always looking to improve my game, so I hope to get the fastest lap time in Round 3," he said.
Maxxis congratulates Josh Creamer and Joel Hetrick and thanks all of its riders for their fine performances.
