Chad Wienen led a Suzuki sweep of the SuperQuad Pro 450 podium and Scott Kilby dominated the QuadTerrain Pro Stock race during Sunday's Jack Link's ATV Championship WPSA PowerSports ATV Tour race at South Fork Dirt Riders. Michael Kneebusch won the Super Sport Side by Side event. The race, which featured Motocross, QuadTerrain, and Super Sport Side-by-Side events, will be telecast on ESPN2 on Saturday, June 23 at noon EDT.

Wienen (No. 44 Team Rockstar, MSR, Pro Taper, Yoshimura/Suzuki) came out of a three-quad battle with teammates Dustin Wimmer (No. 191 MSR, Pro Taper, Yoshimura/Suzuki) and Doug Gust (No. 55 Team Rock Star, MSR, Pro Taper, Yoshimura/Suzuki) to net the Pro 450 victory.

Gust took the holeshot, earning the $1,000 Quad Magazine Holeshot Award, but was overhauled by Wimmer on lap three of the 12-lap final. Wienen seemingly came out of nowhere, taking second on lap six and grabbed the lead for good the following lap. Wimmer held on for second, followed by Gust. Joe Haavisto (No. 75 Lost Creek/Suzuki) won the $1,000 Privateer Award, given the the highest-finishing privateer rider, and sponsored by South Fork Dirt Riders owner Leroy Harris.

"The mid part of the race was just incredible," said Wienen. "It was an exciting race, made more exciting by getting all three Suzukis on the podium.

"The opportunities are endless with Suzuki," added Wienen. "I'm definitely looking forward to the future."

Kilby showcased his broad QuadTerrain experience, taking the $1,000 Holeshot Technologies Rock'n'Roll Award, and leading all eight laps of the QuadTerrain final. The rider of the No. 207 Warnert Racing/Can-Am, beat out Adam Vaughn (No. 83 Can-Am) and Rory Beckman (No. 10 Jack Link's/Arctic Cat).

Kneebusch won the Super Sport race in just his second start, driving the No. 737 Alba Action Sports/SS).

"I just had a lot of fun out there," said Kneebusch. "This is a great series. It combines the best of motocross with car racing, and makes for a great show. We're looking forward to Oklahoma."
