Gibson Off to Fast Start as He Makes It Two-for-Two in Kansas City


Adam Gulley Wins Lites Eastern Regional Opener


 KANSAS CITY, Mo.
(January 15, 2011) – Two rounds of the 2011 AMA Arenacross Series are
officially in the record books and only one man’s name sits in the
winner’s column as TUF Honda’s Jeff Gibson, of Blacklick, Ohio,
captured his second win in as many races inside Kansas City’s Kemper
Arena. J&W Cycles Kawasaki’s Adam Gulley, of Jonesburg, Mo., took
the opening round of the Arenacross Lites Eastern Regional Championship.


Gibson,
the 2009 AMA Arenacross Series Champion, picked up right where he left
off last weekend in Tulsa. After yet another good start, Gibson battled
with Babbitt’s Monster Energy/TiLUBE Kawasaki presented by Maxxis’
Tyler Bowers, of Danville, Ky., for the first 15 laps before Bowers
crashed out of the lead. Gibson took advantage by assuming the lead and
never looked back. Foremost Insurance/Spinechillers
Racing/HondaofFairfield.com’s Nathan Skaggs, of Chillicothe, Ohio
posted a strong runner-up finish while Babbitt’s Monster Energy/TiLUBE
Kawasaki presented by Maxxis’ Chad Johnson, of Rhinelander, Wis.,
rounded out the podium in third.


In
the Arenacross Lites Main Event, it was a great battle between Foremost
Insurance/Spinechillers Racing/HondaofFairfield.com’s Patrick Massie,
of Washington Court, Ohio, and Gulley. In the end, Gulley outlasted
Massie for the win while Central Yamaha’s Zachary Jaynes, of Princeton,
Texas, finished third.


Gibson made it a clean sweep of the evening by also capturing the Dash for Cash.


The
AMA Arenacross Series continues next weekend from Dayton, Ohio, and the
Ervin J. Nutter Center next Saturday at 7:00 p.m. ET.
