National Motocross comes to Unadilla

AMA Toyota Motocross Championship Makes Lone Trip to New York

AMA Toyota Motocross Championship Makes Lone Trip to New York

For Monster Energy National at Unadilla on July 19-20

NEW BERLIN, N.Y. (July 15, 2008) The first-ever AMA-sanctioned motocross event at Unadilla Valley Sports Center was held in 1972 and every year since the natural terrain circuit has been a fixture of American motocross. This season, the Monster Energy National at Unadilla Presented by Renegade Haulers will host round eight of the 12-race AMA Toyota Motocross Championship Presented by FMF on July 19-20.


For 2008, track promoter Ward Robinson is introducing three new sections to the circuit, while also resurfacing the layout. However, the old-school elements of Gravity Cavity, the Wall and Skyshot, all appropriately named sections of the track that are loved so dearly by riders and fans alike, return to provide high-flying action. Additionally, 13,000-cubic yards of sand has been brought in to challenge the riders. That’s enough sand to fill a football stadium three feet deep.


Monster Energy Kawasaki’s James Stewart continues his push towards a perfect season. The series points leader missed out on the action in New York last season due to injury but is eager to return and solidify his spot in second on the all-time win list at the circuit.


In AMA Motocross Lites, Monster Energy/Pro Circuit/Kawasaki’s Ryan Villopoto holds a healthy points lead as he makes his run at a third-consecutive title. An overall winner at Unadilla his rookie year, he had a rough outing in 2007 and hopes to return to the top step of the podium.


As the dust settles after the pros finish with practice on Saturday evening, New York’s very own Ten Man Push will bring Unadilla Valley Sports Center to life with the first of two concerts supporting the event. Playing tracks from their album “Kingdom of Fools” along with covers of some of the most popular mainstream hits, this fast rising foursome will set the tone for an energized evening with a 7 p.m. show. On Sunday, the band will bring the excitement to a boil with an 11:30 a.m. performance leading into the opening ceremonies.


Monster Energy steps up in 2008 as the event’s title sponsor while Renegade Haulers makes its return for the third year in a row as the presenting sponsor.


On track action can also be seen in the form of amateur racing on Friday and Saturday. One of the largest programs for a AMA Toyota Motocross Championship weekend, over 1,000 riders are from the United States and Canada are expected to compete.

Additionally, the inaugural Road to Recovery Golf Tournament on Friday, July 18 brings in local support and interest to the sport of motocross. Registration and lunch for the tournament are at 11:30 a.m. ET with a shotgun start at 1 p.m. ET. All the festivities take place at the Shenandoah Golf Club at Turning Stone Resort and Casino in Verona, N.Y.

Television coverage of the Monster Energy National at Unadilla Presented by Renegade Haulers can be seen on SPEED, with an AMA Motocross class one-hour broadcast on July 26, at 10 p.m. ET and an AMA Motocross Lites one-hour show on July 29, at 2 p.m. ET.

Opening Day report: Cycle News Online 3/29/08

http://www.cyclenews.com/events/ShowStory.asp?HeadlineID=3102


Gainey Grabs Opening Day Gold

3/29/2008

ENGLISHTOWN, NJ

When torrential rains forced the postponement of the regularly scheduled opening day Saturday, March 29 became the new opening day for the 2008 Raceway Park motocross season. Now in its 33rd year of motocross racing in central New Jersey, Raceway Park has survived. Every winter there are rumors that the facility will be sold to property developers, but when March comes around, motocross racing continues.

With the housing market in the Northeast in turmoil and talks of the economy in a recession, some might wonder how many people could still afford to race. Well, nearly 400 racers showed up to compete on the last Saturday of March with little worry of the economic outlook ahead.
In his second season as an Expert racer, Ryan Gainey (80) showed everyone that he was the man to beat this season. Gainey was a perfect four for four, taking the overall victories in both the 250 and Open Expert classes on Saturday. In the first 250 Expert moto, Kawasaki jockey Jacob Morrison from Wareham, Massachusetts, was second and Honda rider Anthony Roth was third. The second moto saw KPS/Montgomeryville Cycle Center-backed Dakota Kessler in second and Gainey’s Mount Holly KTM teammate Ronnie Stewart in third; Stewart’s 4-3 score gave him second overall, and Bromley Suzuki-backed Barry Carsten’s 5-4 score netted him third overall.

The Open Expert class was again a Gainey benefit, but this time Morrison’s 2-3 motos got him second overall for the day, and Carsten was again third overall.

Carsten was able to take home some first-place money by winning both motos of the Over 40 Expert class, besting longtime Raceway Park competitor Jerry Seip, on his Cooper’s Honda, and Kawasaki-mounted Carlo Coen, who were second and third, respectively.

Another opening day has come and gone at Raceway Park, just as it has for the last 32 years. With the large opening-day turnout, this season is shaping up to be a record-breaking one. For more information and to see the complete schedule, check out Raceway Park on the web at www.racewaypark.com.

Opening Day right around the corner

The 2008 Raceway Park motocross season is upon us. Hopefully everyone enjoyed their time off from racing this winter but I for one could hardly wait for the season to start.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their support and kind words last season. I have had the opportunity to get to know many of you personally and enjoy sharing my work with you on a weekly basis. I have spent the winter of 2007-2008 working on and planning some exciting new projects that I think you will enjoy.
As you may have already seen during the 2007 season I launched The Motopages and NJ Motocross. Both websites were designed to increase the visibility of the local motocross community. The Motopages has become the local directory for goods and services for and by local racers. It allows for networking for business between riders and they do for a living. NJ Motocross is a website that is designed to cover all things motocross in and about the great state of New Jersey. The constantly evolving site has served to record the states racing history in one spot. With today’s ever evolving internet society I have jumped into the blogosphere with two interesting projects. www.njmotocross.blogspot.com is comprised of frequently updated information from anything motocross New Jersey related. Weather updates, results and other information can be posted quickly and often. Photos and results usually within a day of the event as well as links to and copies of published NJ Motocross items. www.lukaitisphoto.wordpress.com will become the place to stop first to see photos from each race. As soon as they are done and posted we’ll let you know.
By subscribing to our site feeds you’ll never be out of touch. So I’ll be busy this season and I hope you’ll join me in my adventure.
I am looking forward to another season…see you at the track.
Scott
