The AMA Supercross
series visited Daytona Motor Speedway and massive crowd last Saturday for round
three of East coast Lites championship. DNA Shred Stix/Star Racing /Yamaha’s fielding
of two riders, #341 Nico Izzi, and the rider from Ecuador #577 Martin Davalos.  Like every year, conditions at this race are extremely
challenging and everything needs to lineup just right for a great finish. Preliminary
action got underway in good fashion as Izzi stood high up in the charts at 3^rd
and Davalos clocked the 6^th fastest Timed-qualifying lap.

Slated into Heat #1; Davalos
reeled off a fair start only to get taken down in the first lap. Once back
going again, Davalos was far
from qualifying unfortunately.  So
in the dreaded LCQ, Davalos played
it cool and took 1^st, securing himself into the Main Event.  When the Main Event took to the track, Davalos and his #577 bike were in the
mix sitting in 9^th. Finding his grove, Davalos quickly made his way through a few battles, and on lap three
he had reached 8^th. Once there, Davalos had a bobble on lap five which took him back to 11^th.
From there, Martin put together consistent laps and got back into being in race
mode, which carried him to the finish of 10^th.

Next in line would be Izzi, starting Heat #2 in the thick of
the field, the Georgia native showed good speed and raced on to a transfer
position of 5^th.  With a
subpar start to the Main Event, 13^th, Izzi jumped to 8^th
on lap five.  However, while on the
move he fell victim to a few mistakes and would end up being shuffled back to
11^th on the eleventh lap. Shaken a little, Izzi pushed on to close
out the remaining laps strong. Certainly feeling some effects of the bobbles he
had, the last lap saw Izzi relinquish another few positions when he hit the
ground momentarily, once back up Izzi went on placing him in 13^th, where
he’d finish out at.

Star Racing thanks our valued sponsors for their great
assistance.
