21 June 2011 Round 6 MX Nationals Goanna Tracks NSW

JDR Motorex KTM’s Matt Moss has scored a podium finish in the Coonabarabran round of the Rockstar Energy Drink MX Nationals today, extending his series lead in the Pro Lites category.

Moss finished third overall in the series’ debut at the Goanna Tracks Complex, finishing with 10-7-2-1 finishes across the round’s four motos on Sunday, 19 June.

The podium for Moss saw his series lead stretch out to 54 points with three rounds remaining on his 250 SX-F.

"I had three weeks off the bike heading into this weekend, which allowed my shoulder to heal after Toowoomba," Moss, 23, commented. "It feels good to build my points lead and that’s really what I want to do – win this championship."

Jake Moss Makes it Three Podiums in Succession



Serco Yoshimura Yamaha’s Jake Moss made it a hat trick of podium appearances at the last three rounds after his strong second place at round six of the Rockstar MX Nationals held at the Goanna Tracks circuit at Coonabarabran.


Moss, who missed the opening round due to a shoulder injury, has made steady progress in the series since his return and now back nearing full fitness is beginning to show his true potential and the podium run is just the beginning of his surge up the points ladder.

His moto results of 2-4-3-2 also shows a consistency in his racing and combined with his re-emerging speed, there is no doubt Jake Moss will be a force to be reckoned with at the final few rounds of the championship.

“Again, more steps forward for me today. My fitness was a little better than the last round, I had more strength in my shoulder and I was able to race harder for longer than any time this year,” Moss said.

“My goal now is to start winning some races and win a round or two before the end of the championship. Points wise, I’m not in contention for a good overall result, but I want to keep working and improving and ride at the level that I know I can,” he explains.
