Norco, CA. (July 29, 2011) – Dubach
Racing Development congratulates Matt Buyten on earning X-Game Step-Up
Gold. Buyten put his DR.D-backed Honda CRF450 more than three stories
above Staples Center floor in the final elimination, clearing 37’ in
route to a new World Record and his 4th X-Games Gold Medal.
“The
ground was slick but my bike was really smooth right off the bottom
with my DR.D pipe, I got a great drive and then just came flying up the
ramp,” explained Buyten. “At the apex, looking down, I was definitely
over the bar; I just had to land it at that point.”
The
DR.D staff at Staples could not have been more proud of Buyten; staff
who watched on TV at DR.D hope the screams from our SoCal headquarters
could be heard.
