Team MDK/Unbound Energy’s Nick Wey Top Tens At Southwick Hard work pays off for popular Michigan racer as he rebounds from supercross season knee surgery to finish in sixth place in the heat of the grueling Southwick Outdoor MX National presented by FMF.

CARLSBAD, Calif., (June 14, 2005) – Team MDK/Unbound Energy’s Nick Wey blazed back onto the Outdoor National MX radar this past weekend, scoring a sixth place finish on a terribly difficult Motocross 338 track in Southwick, Mass., and putting to rest any questions of if 

he’s ready to race following reconstructive knee surgery a few months ago.

“If there was one track on the circuit that would provide the best test for my knee it was going to be Southwick,” said Wey, who went 8-5 for sixth overall in the 250 class. “I rode hard, put a lot of pressure on the knee and it came though fine. From here on in I can enter each race for the remainder of the Nationals season with the confidence knowing my surgery was a success and I’m able to use my leg just like I was prior to my injury.”

Wey was able to get out of his Saturday qualifier in good shape, finishing third. His practice times were right up there as well (fourth best) – a good indication that the former National winner 

(Millville) has his speed back.

“I’d definitely like to send a thanks out to Sara Stanton (Jeff’s wife),” said Wey. “She’s definitely one of the main reasons why I was able to get back to health so quickly.” Note: Sara Stanton took 

charge of Wey’s rehabilitation process, getting Nick up and active the day after his surgery.

Added Crown AMG President Scott Sepkovic: “I think I can safely say, on behalf of the entire industry, how happy we are to see Nick back racing again. To return to form as quickly as Nick did is a testament to his work ethic and hunger for greatness. The staff at Unbound Energy looks forward to following Nick’s progress and continued success throughout the summer.”
