Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship comes to New Berlin’s Motocross Park
NEW BERLIN - This weekend the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship will come to New Berlin in their annual stop at the Unadilla Motocross Park. Riders from across the nation will compete for first place in a variety of events.
On Saturday August, 8 riders will begin to compete in the two championship series throughout the weekend. Riders will race in the 450 Class, or the Premier Class, and the 250 Class. Riders from all over the world will come to compete on the storied track. In addition to the international riders and riders from across the country, there will be many local competitors who will race this coming weekend. Monroe native Justin Barcia has emerged as the breakout rider of the 2015 season. Barcia has competed in events all across the country in the 450 Class, winning at Budds Creek in Maryland, which also signified just the third ever win for the Joe Gibbs Racing Motocross (JGRMX), the team that Barcia recently joined, and at RedBud in Michigan.
“New York is a special place for me,” said Justin Barcia. “I’ve competed at Unadilla at least ten different times. It really is a fun place. The fans are always really awesome and energetic.”
Barcia went on to say that he is extremely excited to come back again to compete. “I feel really good about this weekend,” Barcia said. “I’ve had two wins in the last four races and have been on the podium in all four. I feel like I definitely have the speed and momentum to get a win.” Barcia is closing in on the overall leader in the series and said he wants to win as much as he can in the last stretch of three races.
Another New York native, Phil Nicoletti of Cohocton, also races for the Joe Gibbs Racing team. Eight rounds into the 2015 season, Nicoletti has posted the best finishes of his career, including his first podium result, and holds the second-highest ranking in the championship for JGRMX, currently sitting a career-best eighth with three rounds to go.
In 1972 Lucas Oil racing first came to the Unadilla River Valley, now racing seems to be a staple for the community; with thousands of people showing up to watch the competitors do what they do best. This weekend promises to be one of fun and good competition as the best in the business come to compete in our own back yard.
