  <title>Monster Energy’s Jason Lawrence Leads Monster’s Dirt Bike Army Into Battle @ ESPN Moto-X Worlds</title>
  <description><font size="3"><em>&nbsp;Monster&rsquo;s JLaw, along with RC, Adams, Jones, Burkharts &amp; Currie, roll in as the favorites @ ESPN&rsquo;s inaugural dirt bike extravaganza in San Diego </em></font><br /> <br /> <strong>CORONA, Calif., (April 10, 2008) </strong>&ndash;&nbsp; Monster Energy-backed Jason Lawrence clicked neutral on his dirt bike this past month, waiting for Monster Energy Supercross&rsquo; Western Regional Lites class championship to re-group in Seattle in order to &ndash; ideally &ndash; sew up his first AMA No. 1 plate.<br /> <br /> In the mean time Lawrence, or &ldquo;JLaw&rdquo; as he&rsquo;s affectionately been dubbed on the Internet, will lead a number of Monster Army members - including Ricky Carmichael, Nate Adams, Blake &ldquo;Bilko&rdquo; Williams, Adam Jones, Mark Burkhart and Brandon Currie - into battle at this weekend&rsquo;s inaugural ESPN Navy Moto-X World Championships at San Diego&rsquo;s Qualcomm Stadium, April 12-13.<br /> <br /> Lawrence will contest the supercross-style racing portion of the Moto-X World Championships, an event that also includes other ESPN Summer X Games staples such as supermoto, FMX, Best Trick and Step Up.<br /> <br /> &ldquo;San Diego will be a nice break from what I&rsquo;ve been doing to keep sharp for the WSX finals in Seattle and Monster Energy Supercross season-ending shoot out in Vegas,&rdquo; said Lawrence. &ldquo;I&rsquo;ve been riding and training my brains out, so it&rsquo;ll be fun to get out there and race a bit - put what I&rsquo;ve been doing off the bike to use. Should be cool with ESPN backing it and all.&rdquo;<br /> <br /> According to a recent column on www.expn.com, Lawrence is unanimously picked by a number of industry experts &ndash; including his Yamaha of Troy teammate Ryan Morais and former SX standout David Pingree &ndash; as the favorite to win the premier &ldquo;Racing&rdquo; portion of the Moto-X Worlds. To check out what the experts are saying about Lawrence and his chances at gold, link to: http://expn.go.com/expn/blog/moto?post=3335302<br /> <br /> Joining Lawrence as a favorite has to be both Monster Army members Burkhart and Adams. Burkhart, the reigning AMA Supermoto champion, will square off against a field that also includes defending AMA Supercross Lites class champion, his Monster Energy/Yamaha teammate Currie. Adams, the defending Dew Tour champion, is certainly one of the favorites to win, along with Monster Energy&rsquo;s Jones &ndash; the defending X Games 13 Freestyle champion. Newly acquired Bilko Williams should also figure prominent in the FMX scoring.<br /> <br /> &ldquo;The Monster Army will arrived in San Diego heavily armed and ready for a classic &lsquo;take no prisoners&rsquo; battle,&rdquo; said John Lee, Director of Sports Marketing for Monster Energy. &ldquo;Our generals should return from the Moto-X World Championship decorated with a variety of precious metals.&rdquo;<br /> <br /> Last, but certainly not least, Monster Energy-backed MX icon Carmichael will be on hand to contest the Step Up competition. RC, the defending X Games 13 Racing gold medalist, will be joined at the Moto-X World Championships by another legendary Monster Energy-backed racer, Jeremy &ldquo;Showtime&rdquo; McGrath. McGrath, who was banged up recently, will lend his expertise to the sport in the announcer&rsquo;s booth.<br /> <br /> For more information on the Moto-X World Championships, link to. www.expn.com<br /> <br /> Monster Energy supports the sport. Be it Monster Energy Supercross, MX, MotoGP, road racing, supermoto, off-road, FMX, skate, MTB, surf, snow, BMX &ndash; name it &ndash; the athletes are rockin&rsquo; Monster Energy more than anything these days. Check out all the types &ndash; Original Monster Energy, Monster Lo-Carb, Monster Assault, Monster Khaos, the new Monster/fruit juice hybrid called &ldquo;M-80&rdquo; and the ground-breaking Java Monster premium coffee &amp; cream supercharged with our Monster Energy blend. All the Monster Army members at the ESPN Navy Moto-X World Championships digs &lsquo;em &ndash; so will you. On the &lsquo;Net at www.monsterenergy.com.</description>

  <title>Monster Energy/Pro Circuit/Kawasaki’s Ryan Villopoto Takes 1st Place @ Dallas Supercross</title>
  <description><font size="3"><em>Villopoto takes another chunk out of Trey Canard&rsquo;s points lead; Monster-backed teammate Branden Jesseman is 8th o/a and moves into top ten points</em></font><br /> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br /> <strong>CORONA, Calif., (April 7, 2008) </strong>&ndash; Monster Energy/Pro Circuit/Kawasaki&rsquo;s <strong>Ryan Villopoto</strong> continued to claw his way back into Supercross Lites class contention, this past weekend winning the Dallas Supercross, Round 13 of 2008 Monster Energy AMA Supercross, an FIM World Championship.<br /> <br /> With his second win in a row Villopoto pulled to within 17 points of Lites class points leader Trey Canard, 111-94.<br /> <br /> Villopoto got things going in a big way early in his heat race, winning by nearly 20 seconds over 2nd place Nico Izzi.

Villopoto would never relinquish that lead, cruising to victory in the 15-lap contest.<br /> <br /> &ldquo;The track had come around a lot after earlier in the day,&rdquo; said Villopoto. &ldquo;I was able to get a gap and ride my own race out there.&rdquo;<br /> <br /> With two more Eastern Regional Lites Championship rounds to go (Detroit &amp; St. Louis), Villopoto understands he&rsquo;s got his work cut out for him in terms of winning the overall title. &ldquo;I&rsquo;ve got to try to win and get that points gap smaller,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;And that&rsquo;s what I&rsquo;m hoping for in Detroit.&rdquo;<br /> <br /> Also running well for the Monster Energy/Pro Circuit/Kawasaki team was <strong>Branden Jesseman</strong>. The Pennsylvania native finished 2nd in the first heat race, then locked down 8th place overall in the main event. Jesseman put up the 4th-fastest lap time (54.954 to RV&rsquo;s best time of 53.048) in the main and moved into 10th place in the overall Lites class standings with 52 points.<br /> <br /> Next up for the Monster Energy/Pro Circuit/Kawasaki team is the Saturday (April 12th) running of the Detroit Supercross at Ford Field, Round 14 of 2008 Monster Energy Supercross.<br /> &nbsp;<br /> Monster Energy supports the sport.

  <title>Monster Energy’s Josh Hill Survives A Wild Battle With Davi Millsaps To Take 2nd @ Dallas Supercross</title>
  <description><font size="3"><em>Hill (Yamaha) solidly in 5th place overall in premier AMA Supercross class standings of Monster Energy Supercross, 173-167 over Monster&rsquo;s Tim Ferry</em></font><br /> <br /> <strong>CORONA, Calif., (April 7, 2008)</strong> &ndash; Monster Energy&rsquo;s <strong>Josh Hill </strong>(Yamaha) capped off a heat race win in Dallas on Saturday with a wild ride to 2nd place overall in the premier Supercross class main event, Round 13 of 2008 Monster Energy AMA Supercross, an FIM World Championship.<br /> <br /> With the effort Hill moved into 5th place in the overall Supercross class standings, moving ahead of fellow Monster Energy-backed racer Tim Ferry, 173-167.<br /> <br /> The &rsquo;08 Dallas Supercross will mostly be remembered for the podium battle waged on the track between Hill and Davi Millsaps. The two went at it late in the race like they were in cars, with even Millsaps leaving a tire mark across Hill&rsquo;s jersey.<br /> <br /> &ldquo;We hit each other so hard in the rhythm section I thought we were both going to go down,&rdquo; said Hill. &ldquo;This track was hard to pass on and I used that to my advantage because I definitely wasn&rsquo;t on.&rdquo;<br /> <br /> Though his riding wasn&rsquo;t spot on, his starts sure were. Hill got the lead early on his YZ450F in his heat race and beat Ferry by nearly two seconds. In the main he pulled a great start as well, coming around in 3rd place after the first lap &ndash; which helped him with some momentum that he&rsquo;d be able to tap on the entire race.<br /> <br /> &ldquo;More than anything I had to get good starts,&rdquo; said Hill. &ldquo;I was making so many dumb mistakes. I felt like a goon.&rdquo;<br /> <br /> Next up for Monster Energy&rsquo;s Hill is the Detroit Supercross at Ford Field this Saturday, April 12th.<br /> <br /> Monster Energy supports the sport.

  <title>Monster Energy’s International Motocross Recap</title>
  <description><font size="3"><em>Week 1 @ Valkenswaard, Netherlands, sees four Monster Energy-backed MXGP racers in the top ten, along with a Euopean MX2 win @ Talaverna de la Reina, Spain </em></font><br /> <br /> <strong>CORONA, Calif., (April 7, 2008) </strong>&ndash;&nbsp; Monster Energy has stepped up its international presence in professional motocross, this year more than doubling its sponsorship efforts with teams based out of Europe competing in the MX1 class on the FIM Motocross World Championship circuit, as well as the FIM European MX2 Championship.<br /> <strong><br /> FIM Motocross World Championships: </strong>At the 2008 season opener at Valkenswaard, Netherlands, Monster Energy was pumped to have four of its racers place in the top ten in the premier MX1 class. Monster Energy was led by Billy Mackenzie (Monster Energy/CAS Honda) who just missed the overall MX1 class podium, placing 4th overall (10-2, 33 points). Also placing in the MX1 class top ten at Valkenswaard were Monster Energy/Yamaha&rsquo;s David Philippaerts in 5th overall (4-6, 33 points), Josh Coppins in 6th place (6-7, 29 points). Team GPKR&rsquo;s Kevin Strijbos would finish in 9th place overall (21 points).<br /> <br /> <strong>QUOTES<br /> <br /> Coppins:</strong> &ldquo;All in all this has been a pretty good weekend under the circumstances. Qualifying went well with 8th place. My starts were good in both motos however I went a bit wide in the first one and slid out in the second but was up there. This weekend was just damage control really and I rode the best I could within the pain, trying not to damage the foot at all. I haven&rsquo;t been able to do the work to be best prepared for this race. I am quite happy with the result which is a relief after what I have gone through in the last two weeks. I&rsquo;m sitting in 6th overall now whereas two weeks ago I was looking at the bones sticking out of my toes so I&rsquo;m happy with the position I am in. I have the stitches removed from my toes tomorrow and then I plan to get some more time on the bike later in the week. We&rsquo;ll head to France for some guaranteed better weather and hopefully with that time in the saddle I&rsquo;ll be able to build back some strength for Spain and aim to be strong in Portugal.&rdquo; <br /> <br /> <strong>Philippaerts:</strong> &quot;I have to say that I am happy. For my first GP I had good speed and also a nice feeling on the bike. The first moto was not great because I made some small mistakes and was quite nervous but I was glad to see that I could go at the front. In one corner I almost crashed and was completely off the side of the bike; that caused me to lose a lot of time. I pushed hard again but had a problem with my goggles and that was a hassle with the sand. It was because of this I hit with Josh. I wanted to go on the outside but I ran out of room. It was not something I meant to do and just one of those racing incidents. I wanted third position but Pyrhonen blocked me and I lost speed, so Ramon passed me starting the last lap. I was frustrated by this but after I calmed down I was actually content because my goal had been top five and I had taken fourth. In the second heat I started well but lost a lot of positions by getting blocked in the second corner. I came up behind Josh and it took a lot of energy to pass him. I was being extra careful because I did not want to touch again. When I got through I was physically finished. I am happy with the points I took this weekend. I am not far from second place and the championship has started quite well for me.&quot;<br /> <br /> <strong>Strijbos:</strong> &ldquo;The conditions were very different to last weekend and on this wet sand I didn&rsquo;t feel comfortable on the bike. We worked on the suspension last week but my main problem here came from the engine. We are late in our testing program but we now have two weeks to prepare the following round of the championship.&rdquo;<br /> <br /> <strong>MXGP Results<br /> <br /> </strong>MX1 Moto1: 1. Ken De Dycker (Suz); 2. Max Nagl (KTM); 3. Steve Ramon (Suz); 4. David Philippaerts (Yam); 5. Manuel Priem (Kaw); 6. Josh Coppins (Yam); 7. Kevin Strijbos (Kaw); 8. Marc De Reuver (Hon); 9. Kornel Nemeth (KTM); 10. Billy Mackenzie (Hon) <br /> MX1 Moto2: 1. Ken De Dycker (Suz); 2. Billy Mackenzie (Honda); 3. Jonathan Barragan (KTM); 4. Steve Ramon (Suzuki); 5. Max Nagl (KTM); 6. David Philippaerts (Yamaha); 7. Josh Coppins (Yamaha); 8. Manuel Priem (Kaw); 9. Kornel Nemeth (KTM); 10. Aigar Leok (Yamaha) <br /> O/A: 1. Ken De Dycker (50pts); 2. Steve Ramon (38pts); 3. Max Nagl (38pts); 4. Billy Mackenzie (33pts); 5. David Philippaerts (33pts); 6. Josh Coppins (29pts); 7. Manuel Priem (29pts); 8. Kornel Nemeth (24pts); 9. Kevin Strijbos (21pts); 10. Jonathan Barragan (20pts)<br /> <br /> Also, <strong>Jose Butron </strong>of the Yamaha-Gariboldi Racing Team went 2-1 to capture the opening round of the FIM European MX2 Championship in Talavera de la Reina, Spain, this past weekend. Said Butron: &quot;I'm very happy for this victory, for myself, for the team and for my fans. In the first race after a bad start I finished second, but in the second race I wanted to win and I felt very strong and with a good start everything was much easier for me. The Championship has fourteen races and I will try to collect as many points as possible on each event and we'll see at the end of the season.&quot;<br /> <br /> Monster Energy supports the sport.
