This spring CRF STUFF was contacted by two Rookie Pro riders (Vicki Golden WMA Pro #214 and Weston Peick #631) who were preparing their CRF's for battle in the 2009 Lucas Oil AMA Pro Motocross Series, AKA "The Great Outdoors!" They were both having issues with the brakes on their CRF's and wanted to test our Factory Team Replica Kits. Both riders have equipped their national race bikes and practice bikes with CRF STUFF Pro Kits and are very happy with the results. We are also very happy with their results as they have quickly positioned themselves as the top performing rookies this year with solid top 3 and top 10 performances in their respective premier classes in the 2009 Lucas Oil AMA Pro Motocross Series, consistently beating top ranked pros! See the press releases below for more details on these two gifted riders that we are fortunate to be working with.
Rookie Sensation Vicki Golden Podiums at Hangtown with CRF STUFF!
El Cajon California
May 30th 2009
16 year old Vicki Golden piloted her #214 HONDA CRF 250R equipped with CRF STUFF Factory Team Replica brakes to 3rd overall at the prestigious Hangtown National Lucas Oil AMA Pro Motocross Championship Series in front of 25,000 + screaming fans.
In moto 1 at Hangtown Vicki held off and eventually pulled away from 5 time WMA Pro Series champion Jessica Patterson to finish 2nd behind Ashley Fiolek.
Vicki’s 2-3 performance put her on the podium in her 2nd Pro race and she is now ranked 3rd in the series, only 19 points away from series leader Ashley Fiolek. Vicki commented “The CRF STUFF oversize brakes allow me to keep the throttle on a little longer and still hit the inside line…”.

The previous weekend Vicki finished 4th overall at the Glen Helen season opener and firmly established herself as top contender in the 2009 Women’s Motocross Association (WMA) professional series title chase. Her rookie season is off to a phenomenal start!

The WMA Pro Championship series was recently acquired by MX Sports and the breakthrough arrangement means the Womens Pro races are now held on the same course and the same day as the mens 450 and lites classes and includes national television coverage via the Versus Network. All thanks in large part to many years of hard work developing and growing the WMA by founder Miki Keller.
The crew at CRF STUFF congratulates Vicki on her fantastic results and is proud to sponsor her effort by equipping her race and practice bikes with CRF STUFF Pro kit braking packages. CRF STUFF owner, Scott Hart is very impressed with the hard work and commitment that Vicki and her team have shown at such an early point in her career and looks forward to more exciting WMA racing!
