The Monster Energy Cernic's Kawasaki team travelled to Circuit de Ste-Julie just outside of Montreal for round six of the CMRC Monster Energy Motocross Nationals.  Josh Demuth was hoping to get back on track after a disappointing DNF in the previous weekend and Troy Adams was looking to continue his momentum from his third place finish at the same race.  Demuth definitely got back on track with his best result of the series with a second overall.  Jack Carpenter also joined the team as a guest rider and rode to a top ten in the second moto. 

Troy Adams and Jack Carpenter got decent starts in the first MX1 Pro moto but Adams went down in the first turn leaving him in last place.  Unfortunately, Josh Demuth wasn't far ahead of Adams because he w

Washougal Motocross Park in Washougal, Wash. was the site for round eight of the 2010 AMA Pro Motocross Championship.  Washougal is regarded as one of the most scenic courses on the tour, with its mountainous elevation changes and majestic Douglas-fir trees contributing to a picturesque northwestern setting unmatched by any track on the circuit.  Celebrating its 30^th anniversary, Washougal declared the event a “retro” day and encouraged the racers and fans to wear and display clothes and graphics from days gone by.   

Josh Grant was still suffering the effects of severe heat stroke from the Millville race and with temperatures in the mid-nineties the Muscle Milk/Toyota/JGRMX Team was doing everything possible to keep Grant cool befor

One of the toughest tracks in Canada greeted the Monster Energy Cernic's Kawasaki team with heat and humidity as the team looked to keep its three race podium streak alive.  Josh Demuth and Troy Adams took to the track for round five of the Monster Energy Motocross Nationals looking forward to racing again after the three week break.  The team has finished on the podium in all but the first round with Adams' third place finish at the Gopher Dunes track.  However, Demuth lost his third place in championship points after tangling with a lapped rider in the opening moto to end his day.

Both riders ended up with poor starts in the first MX1 Pro moto and battled their way towards the front of the field.  Adams, a Florida native, enjoyed racing thro

SpringCreek Motocross Park in Millville, Minn. was the site for round seven of the 2010 AMA Pro Motocross Championship.  Spring Creek is known for steep elevation changes and the roughest section of sand whoops on the circuit.  The section is so tough it has its own mascot.  Each year for more than a decade a dedicated fan known as the Whoop Monster has donned his costume and cheered on the riders with horns, chainsaws (minus the chains), and signs.  It was the 20^th time the gate has fallen at Spring Creek for an AMA Pro Motocross event.

In the first moto Josh Grant and Justin Brayton both started in the top-10, with Grant moving into sixth by the end of the opening lap.  Grant quickly moved into fourth, and hounded the third-place rider fo

Mid-Ohio Raceway in Lexington, OH was the site for Round 6 of the AMA Road Racing Championship.

The weekend was full of ups and downs for Josh Herrin who claimed an exciting victory in race 1 of the Daytona Sportbike class, but suffered a heavy crash in race 2.  Herrin showed the heart of a champion by restarting his bike (which had just flipped violently through the air and was missing the left handlebar) and going on to claim a 19^th place finish.  Josh earned 2 points for his efforts in the second race and now leads the championship by those same 2 points.

In the SuperSport class, Joey Pascarella put in a measured ride to 6^th, which gave him enough points to clinch the West Division Championship.
