DENZEL&ALISE VICTORIOUS IN BAKERSFIELD!Bakersifeld, CA:With a tally of 3-3-1 in Saturday' (TM)s AA-pro mains, DENZEL STEIN scored a sweet victory in Bakersfield at the ABA U.S. Nationals. With lane 1 for the third and final main, he' (TM)d mumbled under his breath ' " ' I think I can win this one.' Sure enough, Stein laid down his horsepower and took it from start to finish, while Olympic Gold medalist and low-points leader Maris Stromsberg got squeezed out of contention and wound up 8th. Denzel' (TM)s 7 points were good enough to place him ahead of rookie pro Nic Long, and gave Denzel his first AA win of the ' (TM)09 season ' " and the 3rd AA victory in his two year Pro career.

After Dom Daniels crashed in the first main while trying to swoop underneath The Beast in turn two, and then backing it up with a strong second in main #2, the win was all Post' (TM)s to win or lose. Her consistency paid off with a big check and a spot on the top rung of the podium. This too, was Post' (TM)s first win of the season. On Sunday, it was looking like Redline' (TM)s new dynamic duo could do the same - that was, until the AA semi. Denzel blew his gate as spectating kids were immitating the horns of the gate cadence all weekend long - causing a few re-starts. Stein' (TM)s bad start ended his quest for a double right there.
