Dr. Ds Matt Buyten Wins X Games Gold

Friday, July 29, 2011 | 3:05 PM
Norco, CA. – Dubach Racing Development congratulates Matt Buyten on earning X-Game Step-Up Gold.  Buyten put his DR.D-backed Honda CRF450 more than three stories above Staples Center floor in the final elimination, clearing 37’ in route to a new World Record and his 4th X-Games Gold Medal.

“The ground was slick but my bike was really smooth right off the bottom with my DR.D pipe, I got a great drive and then just came flying up the ramp,” explained Buyten. “At the apex, looking down, I was definitely over the bar; I just had to land it at that point.”

The DR.D staff at Staples could not have been more proud of Buyten; staff who watched on TV at DR.D hope the screams from our SoCal headquarters could be heard.


Congratulations Buyten! To view more images of Buyten’s X-Game weekend, please visit dubachracing.com and view the video at http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=6814054

Yeah Buyten!

Love the competitions that aren't judged, you either make the jump or not. Plain and simple.
