Dustin Nelson, Beau Barron, National Quad X series, 1st and 2nd.
Round 2 of the Yamaha Quad X series was held in Buckeye, AZ at the Arizona Cycle Park over the weekend. ACP is known for it’s blue grooved, hard packed dirt and dry, dusty conditions. The weather wasn't’t helping, with temps in the high 90’s the racers were in for a hot day in the Arizona desert.
When the gate dropped in
the first moto, Nelson pulled a big hole-shot and pulled away. Barron
was in second from the first lap and held it to the finish.

trailing in second. The two EKS BRAND racers battled back and fourth to
the finish with Nelson again coming out on top. Nelson now holds a 6
point lead over Barron for the National title. Congrats guys!

Mike Alessi, Tommy Hahn, AMA SX Seattle Wa. 6th and 9th.
With a nasty rutted SX
track EKS BRAND racer Mike Alessi put in his best SX ride to date this
year. The conditions were much tougher than a normal SX race and Alessi
showed that when the going gets rough.... Mike started the night
by once again pulling the hole-shot in his heat and battling for a few
laps before dropping to third. In the main, the 800 battled in 3rd
place again for a good portion of the race. An off track excursion
dropped Mike back into the pack but he battled back to finish a strong
6th place. Mike will be doing outdoor testing for the next two weeks
aboard a KTM450. With the added 100cc Mike should be back to the front
of the pack for the AMA Nationals!

Tommy Hahn has been hurt
most of the season. Seattle marked just his third race back after
injury. He battled the tough conditions and the best SX racers in the
world to pin down a solid 9th in the main event.
