>> Cycle Trader/Rock River Yamaha rider Justin Cooper is no stranger to Arenacross. If you hail from the North East, then you know that Justin is unbelievably talented at Aren- across. Showing his talent from a young age winning every class from 50s, 60s, and 80s, Justin dominated every Aren- across event he entered. In fact, if you date back to his wins starting on 50’s, I wouldn’t be surprised if he has the record for the most amateur wins in Arenacross history. It was
only a matter of time before he was winning Professional Arenacross Main Events. Well, the day has finally come. Kicking off Friday night in Baltimore with a big holeshot in the AX lites Main Event, Cooper put on a clinic and won his first Main Event in dominant fashion. Leaving the rest of the pack behind early, Justin rode his own race and made it look effortless. Baltimore being the only North East round of AX this year, I’m sure he wouldn’t want his first win in any other arena.
