Forget topping off coolant every ride, this new Coolant Recovery Tank (CRT) prevents fluid loss when bikes overheat, as the fluid returns to the radiator when it cools automatically. Coolant loss can be detrimental to engine life and causes premature wear on motor components. The IMS CRT acts as a catch tank, saving the coolant from spilling out, and then returns it to the radiator when cooled. This convenient 5oz. tank has been tested with Factory KTM and Husqvarna and is an easy way to combat power loss and engine wear during overheating. We are testing one now.
Ahhhhh Ya, just watch it
Pro Motocross Championship: Return to Southwick
Cudby photos/MX Sports
Not only was it a return to the famous track Motocross 388, it also marked the first time in well over a year Eli Tomac killed it and the field. Tomac was on fire in the rough sand and not only won the overall, nailed down two wins. And, yes there is another and. He actually crash while leading, lost the lead to Ken Roczen and then went and passed him back for the win.
It was a few weeks ago we predicted this day was going to land very soon and it did in fact. Yes Ken Roczen is still well on his way to winning the title with a 47-point-lead but there are still a nice chunk of races left on the schedule. One bad moto or a DNF with no points scored could change the outcome. It’s nice to see Tomac back but we like Roczen too.
In the 250 class Cooper Webb nabbed the overall but Jeremy Martin and and Austin Forkner were on the gas at the Wick as well. Martin won the first moto but ran in fourth for the second while Forkner placed 5th in moto one but came back to finish in the second spot on moto two and secure the third spot on the podium.
