2013 AMA Pro Motocross: Budd's Creek

The competition really showed how tight the field was as the 2013 AMA Motocross Championship returned after the weekend off to the legendary track of Budd's Creek, a past stronghold for man-of-the-moment Ryan Villopoto who has shown his world-beating talent here.

The Monster Energy Kawasaki rider was pipped to the overall 450 win by Raptor Titanium sponsored rider Ryan Dungey of KTM Red Bull USA Factory Racing who claimed the win in race two to get an unbeatable 2-1 result after Villopoto stormed to victory in race one so the points gap remains the same but it is an important psychological edge for Dungey in showing he is still in the title hunt.

In the 250 class the Raptor Titanium sponsored duo of Ken Roczen and Marvin Musquin from the KTM Red Bull USa Factory Racing outfit were bested by Eli Tomac and the 2012 Champion Blake Baggett in some ferociously close racing with Baggett taking the overall 2-1 result. Tomac impressed in the second race though as he came from nowhere to pass everyone and take the chequered flag for the race win and overall result. The Raptor Titanium sponsored KTM Red Bull riders took consistent overall third and fourth results with a 2nd for Musquin in race one ahead of Roczen in third.
