The Monster Energy AMA Supercross tripleheader continued in Arlington, Texas and this time, Justin Cooper managed to deliver a stellar performance in the final round to claim victory and the points lead in the 250SX West Championship. Teammate Nate Thrasher finished in ninth place while Jarret Frye trailed behind to complete the top 10.

The Monster Energy Star Yamaha Racing 250SX West team gets a three-week break before heading to Georgia on April 10 to kick off another Monster Energy AMA Supercross tripleheader at Atlanta Motor Speedway.

Wil Hahn – Monster Energy Star Yamaha Racing 250 Team Manager

“We needed that. I think Justin is probably relieved right now and obviously very happy. We’ve just got to keep the momentum going. I think that’s the hardest thing right now. It seems like everyone is having a tough time getting the momentum going in this series (250SX West Championship), so going into a three-week break with tonight’s results, it couldn’t be much better than that.

“Also, what a night for both of our rookies. Nate had a pretty tough day, missing the second practice and not being sure if he was going to race. So to come out and fight like that showed a lot of heart. Jarrett made a lot of progress after some tough races here in Texas. He was pretty bummed out after last Tuesday, but he came back and really applied himself tonight. I can see him growing and getting better and better.”

“It was a great night. It kind of gave me flashbacks to the first round in Orlando. I was first in every practice, won the heat race, and won the main. It was nice to get two holeshots tonight. We’ve been working to get back to that. It’s been a tough road this season with being on the ground and working my way from last in the main. I’ve had to fight for every position, so this was the kind of race I’ve been looking for.

You can take it for granted when it comes so easy. I definitely showed myself what can happen at these last couple of races, so it was really good to have some clean air again, and it was nice to click off laps like I was at the practice track. I had a good flow and was just managing the gap in the whole race. It feels good to be back on top and to leave with the red plate. I’m looking forward to the Atlanta rounds.”

Nate Thrasher – Monster Energy Star Yamaha Racing

“It was a good night at Arlington 3 after a tough start to the day. In the first timed qualifying, I had a pretty big crash and hit my jaw pretty good. I thought I broke it. I finished up the session and just pushed through it to end up seventh. Then I missed the second qualifying and went to go get an x-ray at the hospital. We got back here probably 30 minutes before I had to go out.

So we got dressed, got ready, took a little medicine, and then we went out and rode the best we could. Ninth was the best we had tonight, but we had the speed to be up there in the top five for sure. We have got to keep pushing and keep getting a little bit better on the weekend. We’ve got a three-week break, so the plan is to just get healthy and come back to Atlanta.”

Jarrett Frye – Monster Energy Star Yamaha Racing

“Arlington 3 was a better day for me. I qualified 10th and pulled the holeshot in the heat race. It was pretty cool to lead a lap and then finish second after some tough races. In the main, I didn’t get the start I needed. On the second lap, I had a big moment and almost went down, so I just tried to finish the best I could. I ended up 10th, which is not what I’m looking for, but it was a better day, so we’re going to go back to work and get ready for Atlanta.”
