NBL Pacific Nationals Whittier Narrows, CA
Round #4 of the 2008 NBL Pro Series was held this past weekend in
Southern California at the newly reopened Whittier Narrows BMX track.
One of the best BMX race tracks in So Cal, the Whittier Narrows track
has been a favorite among the Pros and the race action was top notch.
With a huge NBL West Coast turnout, it was a great weekend for BMX
racing and the Double A Marketing Pros took full advantage of it and
the wins in the Elite Pro Class both days. Here is how the Pros finished
up:
Kyle
Bennett has been an unstoppable force over the past year and this
weekend was no different. Kyle only raced
on Saturday at the Pacific
Nationals, as he was originally scheduled to travel to Australia for
the UCI Supercross. Kyle has been racing a lot lately and wanted to
take some much needed time off, so he decided to race just on Saturday
and then return home to get some rest. Kyle came to win and did just
that, as he took the lead as soon as the gate dropped in the main event
and stayed out front. Add another win in the NBL series for Kyle. Kyle's
Sponsors include Free Agent, FLY Racing, UGP, Shimano, GO211.com, Bombshell,
Sun Ringle, Kenda, Thomson, KHS, S & M bars, Cyto Sport, and ORP.
Randy Stumpfhauser was looking for another good weekend of racing
and he would leave Whittier with a great result. On Saturday, Stumpy
was back out front all day leading up to the semi, where a first turn
crash put him over the berm and out of the main event, On Sunday, Randy
decided to just stay way out front all day to avoid the wrecks and
he did that all the way to the win in Elite Men's. It was great to
see Randy atop the Podium again and he looks to win back the NBL #1
Pro title he once held. Randy's sponsors include GT Bicycles, Bombshell,
ODI, Tangent, Fly Racing, Sinz, Shimano, GO211.com, OGIO, Cyto Sport,
Power Bar, SDG, Toolshed, Sharp, and BMXPros.com
Cristian
Becerine has been looking extremely fast and this weekend was no
different. On Saturday, Cristian was
out front and looking to
be one of the riders to beat and in the main event, it was an all out
battle between him and Kyle with Cristian having to settle for 2nd
overall. On Sunday, Cristian was flying all day again, until the semi
where he crashed while in the lead. Unfortunately he didn't make the
main event, but he did add another great score over the weekend in
the NBL title chase. Cristian's sponsors include Free Agent, KHS, Fly
Racing, SINZ, Kenda, THE Products, ODI, Sun Ringle, Shimano, Powerbar,
Cyto Sport, S & M bars, OGIO, Thomson, and BMXpros.com
