Martin, Malinoski Lead Charge in New Hampshire

The AMSOIL Championship Snocross Series continued its East Coast swing with the fifth round of nationals held at Rockingham Park in New Hampshire. For Team AMSOIL, it was a break out weekend both Scheuring Speed Sports and Judnick Motorsports filled up the podium in both Pro and Semi Pro.

Judnick Motorsports rider Ross Martin continued his push for a pair of championships with strong runs in Pro Stock and Pro Open. On Friday Night, he pushed race leader Robbie Malinoski of the Scheuring Speed Sports team to the finish line. Malinoski battled out front with eventual race winner Tim Trembly before Martin came into the mix. When the final flag dropped, Malinoski was second with Martin in third. Scheuring Speed Sports rider Andrew Johnstad showed an impressive run finishing right behind Martin in fourth. Martin now sits just 16 points behind Trembly for the Pro Stock championship.

In Saturday's Pro Open final, Martin took advantage of his two heat wins to get a good start in featured race. Martin grabbed the lead on lap two and never looked back. Martin now leads the AMSOIL Pro Open points standings by 41 points.

Judnick Motorsports Mike Bauer continued his onslaught of two championships this season. Bauer picked up another win in the Semi Pro Super Stock class on Saturday after finishing second on Friday. With each class being scored separately, Bauer now leads both in the points race.

The next event for the ACSS is February 19-20 in Sarnia, Ontario Canada. Versus will have coverage of the New Hampshire rounds on February 28 at 4 P.M. EST.

Until then, we'll see you at the races.
