Rockstar Makita Suzuki team
mate Michael Byrne carded a top-10 overall result thanks to eighth and
13th-place moto finishes at AMA Motocross Championship race at High Point
Raceway in Mt. Morris, Pennsylvania, on Sunday.
Michael Byrne:
"The first moto was OK; I didn't start as well as I'd have liked to but I
passed a few guys at the end and finished strong on the Rockstar Makita Suzuki
RM-Z450. In the second moto I got a better start but someone fell in front of
me and I didn't have anywhere to go so I fell also. Later on, I just slid out
in the mud. The second moto was a little bit rough but I tried to salvage as
many points as possible."
