CARLSBAD, Calif., (July 20, 2009)
– Nick Wey (Boost Mobile/ampm/Monster Energy/Troy-JLaw
Racing) continues to charge hard on the 2009 Lucas Oil AMA MX Nationals tour,
this past weekend at Millville (Minn.) knocking down two top ten moto finishes (8th/9th) to
score an overall season-best 8th place
finish in the premier 450 class.
Wey, who’s lone career MX National win
came at Millville in the 125cc class in ’98, pulled an 11th place
start in the first moto, then charged back from a 16th place
start in the second moto to gain a top ten position
and secure his second-straight top ten finish (9th at RedBud the previous race).
“Two of my favorite tracks,
back-to-back … feelin’ it,” said
Wey.
Boost Mobile/ampm/Monster
Energy/Troy-JLaw Racing’s rookie 250 class
racer, Max Anstie, raced to a top ten second moto (10th) to
salvage a 12th place
overall finish (14th/10th).
After seven of 12 Lucas Oil AMA MX Nationals
rounds Wey is in 11th place
in the overall standings with 126 points, just one point behind Justin Brayton
for a 450 class top ten spot. Anstie is in 16th place
with 83 points in the 250 class.
Next up for the Boost Mobile/ampm/Monster Energy/Troy-JLaw
Racing team is this the July 18th
Spring Creek MX National in Millville, Minn.
