US Motocross Lites Series: 5th Round at Lakewood
08 July 2008
The 5th round of the AMA National Motocross Championship Series kicked off at 6:00pm Saturday night for the first "under the lights" race in National Motocross history.
MDK KTM Factory Lites rider Martin Davalos enjoyed the change in the schedule while also proving that the two-week break prior was just what he needed to get back up to pace. He started an impressive 5th place in Lites moto one, followed closely by his teammates Matt Goerke and Ryan Sipes holding 7th and 8th. The final team member, Justin Brayton, had a much worse start, appearing 28th around the first turn.

Top 10 AMA Motocross Lites Finishes for Sipes & Goerke
05 June 2008
As the gate dropped for moto one of the Motocross Lites class all three MDK KTM riders hopped out front off the gate. Unfortunately their bout toward the front end of the pack would be short-lived as they were cut off at the first turn and pushed back near the bottom twenty. By the end of lap one, Matt Goerke had moved into 11th position, followed by his teammate Ryan Sipes in 13th and Justin Brayton in 20th. As time ticked on, they charged hard to move through the pack. Soon Goerke and Sipes were side by side in 11th and 12th. Sipes passed Goerke to take the 11th place position. Goerke stayed close by until he made a few mistakes causing him to lose a couple positions as he moved down into 14th. At the end of moto one, Sipes finished a hard fought 12th, Goerke was two positions back in 14th and Brayton worked his way up from near last to 17th.

Early Promise for KTM Lite Riders
28 May 2008
The Lites class provided a lot of entertainment to the Glen Helen Motocross fans as they witnessed many battles ensue throughout the entire pack. In the first moto, MDK KTM Lites rider Ryan Sipes came around the first turn in 2nd, while his teammates Matt Goerke and Justin Brayton were involved in a large first turn pile up. Brayton recovered in 29th but Goerke had difficulty starting his bike which caused him to start ¾ of a lap down. Around the halfway point Sipes was still up front battling for a top five position when his bike suffered an electronic issue which kept him from finishing the race. Meanwhile, Brayton and Goerke were busy trying to pass on the fast one-lined track. At the end of the race, Brayton had moved from 29th to finish 17th while Goerke worked his way into 28th.
