2013 AMA Pro Motocross Championship: Round 2, Thunder Valley

250 Class

It was another excellent performance from our sponsored KTM Red Bull USA rider Ken Roczen at Thunder Valley, Colorado this weekend, taking another strong 1-3 result to go overall second behind Geico Honda rider Eli Tomac who took an unbeatable 2-1 result to clinch victory. Tomac's team-mate Zach Osborne was overall third with an excellent 6-2 result. Raptor Titanium sponsored rider Marvin Musquin showed he is being very consistent with another straight 4-4 result for him.

The reigning champ Blake Baggett ground out a respectable overall fifth as he clawed it back from an overall ninth place in the first race.

Raptor Titanium sponsored Rockstar Energy Racing Suzuki riders Jason Anderson and Blake Wharton had a disappointing day with Anderson down in overall eigth place and Wharton down in eleventh.

450 Class

The 450 class was spiced up with top European talent being added into the mix with Belgians Clement Desalle and Kevin Strijbos from the Factory Rockstar Energy Suzuki team in Europe coming over to take it to the AMA boys, and they didn't go home empty-handed, both achieving overall top ten results.

Nobody could beat man-of-the-moment Ryan Villopoto though as he cruised to another perfect 1-1 result to go unbeaten so far in the outdoors this year.

Raptor Titanium sponsored Factory KTM Red Bull USA rider Ryan Dungey took another 2-2 result, but he'll have to get his thinking cap on if he wants to take it to the Kawasaki rider this year.

Mike Alessi on Raptor Titanium footpegs took a super-strong overall fifth place.

2013 AMA Pro Motorcross championship: Round 1, Hangtown

250 Class

It was a confident sweep of both motos from our sponsored rider Ken Roczen that grabbed the headlines in the 250 class at Hangtown on Saturday as the KTM Red Bull USA ace continued his success from winning the 2013 250SX Class West Coast title just two weeks ago and now is stamping his authority in the outdoor arena.

Marvin Musquin and fellow Raptor Titanium sponsored rider continued in his form from last year and kept it consistent taking a 4-4 result.

450 Class

How do you solve a problem like Ryan Villopoto? The 2013 450SX Champion looked unbeatable at Hangtown this weekend, with main rivals James Stewart on the Yoshimura Suzuki and Raptor Titanium sponsored rider Ryan Dungey of KTM Red Bull USA having no answers against such a strong performance from the Kawasaki rider.

Our sponsored rider Ryan Sipes on the Rockstar Energy Suzuki took a strong overall sixth to round out a good weekend for him, just ahead of BTO Sports KTM rider Andrew Short and Motoconcepts' Mike Alessi both who were also on Raptor Titanium footpegs.
