SAN ANTONIO,
Texas (February 20,
2010) – The second half of the 2010 AMA Arenacross Series kicked-off on
Saturday night from the legendary Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas. After yet
another memorable night of bar-banging action, Babbitt’s Monster Energy/Ti Lube
Kawasaki’s Josh Demuth, of North Richland Hills, Texas, raced to his second
straight victory and third overall win of the season. Mico, Texas’ Heath Voss
grabbed the AMA Arenacross Lites victory in a guest appearance in the series.
Points leader and Babbitt’s Monster Energy/Ti
Lube Kawasaki rider Tyler Bowers, of Danville, Ky., was the rider to beat on
Saturday night, dominating the majority of the 25-lap AMA Arenacross class main
event. However, as the race drew to a close, Demuth put forth one of the most
impressive surges to close the gap on his teammate and steal the victory. With
the win, Demuth gained another three points on Bowers in the season standings,
reducing the deficit to 12 points with five rounds remaining. Bowers held on
for second while fellow teammate Chad Johnson, of Rhinelander, Wis., helped
give Babbitt’s its third podium sweep of the 2010 season.
