Two Winter X Games Medals for Team AMSOIL

In the past,  the spectacle of the ESPN Winter X Games has held different meeting at the farthest ends of the spectrum for Team AMSOIL racers Ross Martin and Tim Tremblay.

For Martin, the Judnick Motorsports star has mirrored his AMSOIL Championship Snocross success at Winter X, picking up three medals before landing in Aspen this year. For Tremblay, Aspen has never been kind as the defending AMSOIL Pro Open champion had yet to finish a race at the high profile event. For one weekend, the stars aligned as both riders brought home some hardware from Colorado.

Martin drew the first major obstacle by pairing up with five-time gold medalist Tucker Hibbert in the first heat. Martin went bar-to-bar with Hibbert for the eight-lap qualifier, finishing second and earning one of the coveted transfer spots  into the final.

Scheuring Speed Sports rider Tremblay grabbed the first gate pick in the second heat, but the burly Canadian had to go up against teammates Robbie Malinoski and Darrin Mees.  Tremblay followed Matt Piche for the first few laps before taking the lead and the heat win. Malinoski crashed out of the contest while making a pass into third. Mees was running right behind Tremblay in second before a mechanical knocked him out of the race.

In the final, Martin and Tremblay were the odds-on favorites to stop Hibbert’s run towards a sixth straight gold medal. Martin grabbed the early lead with Tremblay in third behind Hibbert. A few laps in, Hibbert got around Martin and the battle for second was on between Martin and Tremblay. The running order would stay the same for the remainder of the race as the three top sleds stretched a sizeable lead over the rest of the field.  Hibbert won the gold, with Martin picking up his fourth medal and Tremblay leaving Aspen with the bronze.

Up next on the ACS schedule is a weekend stop in Deadwood, S.D. for two days of the worlds best riders going head-to-head. Racing will be held Friday and Saturday nights. A live stream will be available at www.isocracing.com

Celebrating over 100 years of entrepreneurial spirit at this location, Will Farrow and his crew are proud to announce the opening of their new motorcycle shop.  B.L.C.

Now after almost 4 years we are going strong. We have learned alot in our time and tried to make all feel welcome. It's part of the old time bike shop feeling that was important to me. It dosent matter what you ride just that you do ride and enjoy the wind. Also that your bike is safe to ride. A lot of people know how to ride but I am surprised at how many don't know what's safe or not, but then that's our job to know.

I have over 41 years experience working on and playing with bikes.  We specialize in V-Twins and British motorcycles, Metric Cruisers, and Sport Bikes, as well as custom fabrication.  I say, "if you can dream it... I can do it."  I have tried to do this whereever I can.   We love a challenge.

Patrick (the Hogdoctor) came to us early in the summer of 2012, he's fantastic! He has worked on Harleys just about each and every day of his life. He comes with many years of Harley training as a certifed Master Level Harley Davidson Service Tech and has provided invaluable input when it comes to the right and wrong way of doing certain procedures.  To top him all off he's a Decorated combat veteran that knows right is right and wrong is always wrong. He's driven by incessant curiosity and a need to understand how things work and a desire to make them work better. Theres no challenge too great for the Hogdoctor.

Then theres John (UGLY) Kucker hes our metric sport guy and also a Certified Harley Technician. He grew up on mini bikes, three wheelers, four wheelers, dirt bikes and anything that had a motor. John likes to go fast. He says meaner the better, the more unique even better. He likes the bikes he turns into Street Fighters to be something different something cool that fits the rider. Something that's wicked fast!

So as there are different kinds of motorcycles we have a good man to cover it no matter what it is. I stake our reputation on it each day.

HP Marine Synthetic 2-Stroke Oil

• Excellent for Evinrude® E-TEC™ factory-lean setting (replaces Evinrude XD100™ 2-Cycle Oil)
• Helps prevent deposits
• Protects against wear
• Low smoke
• Protects against rust
• Low aquatic toxicity
• Superior performance as an injection oil or at 50:1 pre-mix

High-quality motor oil is critical for maximum performance in modern two-cycle marine motors. Direct fuel injection (DFI) improves combustion efficiency, delivering the extra power enthusiasts want, while leaner gas-to-oil ratios provide the reduced exhaust emissions the government mandates. The leaner ratio leaves less oil to lubricate and protect these hotter, more powerful motors, which invites deposits and wear that threaten engine performance and life. HP Marine is proven to excel in these harsh challenges. It controls performance-robbing friction, heat and wear, yet produces low smoke and has low aquatic toxicity properties. It's an oil as advanced as the engines it protects.

Outstanding Wear Protection
The elevated heat and friction of modern two-cycle marine motors can exceed the film strength of inferior oils, increasing the likelihood of scuffing and wear. HP Marine's exclusive synthetic formulation provides increased lubricity for reduced wear during normal and lean-mix operation (see field study results). In 534 hours of field testing, HP Marine completely prevented piston skirt and cylinder bore scuffing, demonstrating its superior lubricity and ability to reduce friction between moving parts. It maintains a strong lubricating film even in lean-mix, severe-service conditions, helping marine engines achieve maximum life.

Excellent Deposit Control
HP Marine is formulated with MAXDOSE™, a system of advanced additives for "super-clean" operation. It helps prevent deposits that lead to poor performance. In field testing, HP Marine inhibited ring deposits that can cause ring sticking and ring jacking (carbon build-up behind the ring, forcing it outward), a phenomenon that occurs in modern DFI outboard motors. It also virtually eliminated exhaust port deposits for reliable, efficient operation.

Proven in Marine E-TEC Field Study
HP Marine was installed in a 250-hp Evinrude E-TEC engine powering a heavy-duty marine rescue vessel. Following a 28-hour break-in period at the normal oil setting, the engine was programmed to its factory-lean setting and operated for 506 hours prior to disassembly. An ASTM calibrated rater examined and awarded each component either a merit rating on a scale of 0 to 10 (with 10 representing no distress) or a percentage rating (with 0 percent representing no distress). Results prove HP Marine provided exceptional wear protection and deposit control. For complete study results, visit amsoil.com/proof
