Bel-Ray
performance lubricants are for more than just racing. The elite stars
of freestyle motocross rely on the performance advantage Bel-Ray offers
in their freestyle
contests.


The
biggest show in freestyle motocross took place this past weekend in Los
Angeles, California  for X Games 17. Bel-Ray FMX athletes, Blake
Williams, Adam Jones, Mike
Mason and Carey Hart were all scheduled for action. Williams was
unfortunately injured in practice prior to the event and could not
compete but Bel-Ray’s other athlete stepped up and showed their skills.


On
Friday night in the Staples Center, Adam Jones grabbed Bel-Ray’s first X
Games medal of the weekend with the Silver Medal in Moto X Freestyle.
Jones pulled off many
big backflip tricks, including his new signature trick, the Rigor
Mortis, on his way to a second place finish and the 5th X Games medal in his career. Jones was a busy competitor for the weekend as he also competed in Freestyle Motocross Best Trick
placing 6th and the Speed and Style events where he was defeated in quarter finals action.


Speed
and Style racing took place on Saturday night and Bel-Ray was again on
the podium with a Silver Medal finish. After defeating Todd Potter in
quarter finals racing
and Carey Hart in the semi-finals, Mike Mason was up against Nate Adams
for the gold medal round. Mason defeated Adams on speed, but lost by
just 3 points in style, earning the Silver Medal. Hart defeated Jeremy
Stenberg in quarter finals action but lost to
Mason in semi-finals and ended his X Games comeback with a 4th place finish.
