Justin Cooper was the standout at Loretta Lynn’s – Photo by: Derek Garcia – MXSports
The 2017 Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship heads to New Berlin, NY for the final three-race stretch after taking a week off for the Loretta Lynn’s Amateur National Championship in Tennessee. With Loretta’s in the books, we expect to see some of the A class graduates getting their feet wet in the pro ranks before starting their rookie seasons in 2018.
Leading the way for the amateur graduates will be the winner of the 2017 Horizon Award—which is given to the most dominant amateur at Loretta Lynn’s—Star Racing / Yamaha’s Justin Cooper on the #191. Justin won four of his six motos at Loretta’s this year and took home titles in the highly competitive Open Pro Sport and 250A classes.
Another rider to watch will be Joey Crown, who is making his debut on the #355 Monster Energy / Babbits Kawasaki machine. Joey finished 2nd and 3rd respectively at Loretta’s in the Open Pro Sport and the 250A classes behind Cooper. As we have seen many times in the past, results can often flip flop when these kids jump up to the next level.
You can check out the full 250MX and 450MX pre-entry list to see everyone that is signed up for round number 10 of the 2017 Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship below. All Loretta Lynn’s graduates in 250 and 450 class are bolded.
