TY TREMAINE
Bike: Beta 300 RR Race Edition
"I was a bit nervous coming into the weekend with absolutely no time at all on a Beta. After the first practice I felt right at home on the bike, and with the team, and I knew that I would be able to adapt to the Beta 300 fast. We made a few small changes and ended up qualifying 3rd into the night show. The night show was flawless and we were able to put Beta on the podium. From here, we can only test and make things better and better, so I believe the future will be very bright for myself and the team!"
MASON OTTERSBERG
Bike: Beta 390 RR Race Edition
"I went into round 4 with a new attitude and full of excitement. With my two week break from EnduroCross, I spent a lot of time riding in the desert and racing other events to do something new. I had a great day in practice finishing 7th in hot laps. Going into the night I finished the heats with a 5th place after some battling and carnage. In the main event; I finished 9th after running 6th for the last half of the race until a joker lane mistake cost me three positions. I'm happy with my riding, I finally felt like I got back what I have been missing all season and I know I'm capable of much more. Thanks to my team for all of the support and I want to congratulate Ty Tremaine for becoming our newest teammate. Really looking forward to having him on our team!"
MORGAN TANKE
Bike: Beta 250 RR Race Edition
"After missing a round due to a fractured ankle I was excited to get back to racing in Denver. I had gotten my cast removed last Monday and decided to race on Saturday. I got a really good start from the far outside gate and had a good first lap. I made a mistake in the rock section which forced me to put my bad foot down, after that I was in a lot of pain that I couldn't quite recover from. I'm glad I was able to salvage a finish and get my Beta out on the track. I'm hoping for better luck in Washington this weekend. I can't thank the whole Beta team enough for sticking behind me during this injury!"

"The Donner Hare Scramble didn't go super well. I was running a solid third through the silt beds. My bike had sucked in some dirt and was running poorly but it was still working. On the last lap it stalled out and I couldn't get it going again. Unfortunately we didn't win or get the title, but we put forward our best effort. Huge thanks to my team for a hard fought season."
