Carlson Wins AMA Supermoto Unlimited Championship,
While the Team also wins Team Championship by 1 point.
November 10th & 11th AMA Supermoto Championship Round
9 & 10.
Morongo casino was the venue for the final 2 rounds of the
AMA Supermoto Championship. Benny Carlson rode to a conservative
5th place in Saturdays final, clinching his 2nd AMA Spermoto
Unlimited Championship and his 1st for the team.
Due to Atkins’ braking his left arm in
a previous round (when in contention for second in the championship),
flat track expert Henry Wiles and French Supermoto pro Kevin
Bethome
were brought
as replacement riders to earn points for the teams’ championship.
Henry Wiles rode to an amazing 6th place in Saturdays final,
and Kevin Bethome did the same putting the team on the box
in 4th place beside Ben Carlson in 2nd during Sunday’s
final event. This gave the team enough points to win the
team championship over factory KTM by 1 point!

place Darryl Atkins (had runner up position prior to injury
and not competing
in final 3 rounds)
“It was an almost perfect season for
the team, apart from Atkins little mishap. The team are really
happy that Benny won
the riders championship, and that they were able to choose
the right guys (Kevin Bethome and Henry Wiles) to capture
the points needed to win the teams championship along side
Benny.
All this would not have been possible without
everyone’s
support, and the team are really grateful for their efforts.
Atkins said "I have to especially thank Aprilia USA, Rip
It Energy Fuel, Parts Unlimited, and Bel Ray Oils. Amauri
Nunes,
Todd
and
Georgiann Carlson, John Weiss and Robert Pandya all played
a key part in the teams success this season.”
