Munn Racing Race Report: Budds Creek

Elm Mott, Texas: After a weekend off from racing the Munn Racing KTM team got back into the swing of things and headed to Budds Creek for the fifth round of the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Series.

Coming into the weekend the team had some new members added to the team.  Eeli Takatalo has joined the team on a Munn Racing KTM powered by EBR Performance 450.  Eeli is from Finland and will be contesting the rest of the series with the Munn Racing KTM team.  Also, new to the team this weekend was rider Evgeny Mikhalov from Russia.  Evgeny will pilot a Munn Racing KTM powered by EBR Performance 450 for the team for the remaining rounds.  250 rider Todd krieg and Vince Friese returned this week to join the new members for some great racing at Budds Creek.

Vince Friese came out swinging in the 450 class and was able to score some points on his Munn Racing KTM placing 18^th overall on the day.  Friese is improving every week and is looking to make the top ten in the upcoming rounds.  Evgeny Mikhaylov from Russia rode great as well.  He was able to put himself in the main motos and rode great all day long.  Mikhaylov will be looking to score some points at Southwick in the ever competitive 450 class.

Heading into the next round of the series the team is looking forward to the opportunity to race at Southwick for the last year it will hold a national.  The team has a big respect for the rich history in the sands of Southwick and is eager to make a statement there for its last race.  Also returning to the team this weekend for the final round of the WMX Triple Crown Series is Sara Petterson.   Sara has been very close to getting on the podium each round and is eager to stand on top of the podium when the sand settles at Southwick.  Look for the rest of the team to show up with their game face on ready to tackle the historic track for one last time.
