Aguilar affirms motocross king status

Glenn "D' King" Aguilar gave another concrete reason why he tops in Asia by claiming twin victories in the eighth leg of the MS Motosuit Motocross Series dubbed as the "3rd Buglasan Cup" last Sunday at the Uypitching racetrack in Dumaguete City.

Knowing that RUSI's Irwin Uypitching owns the racetrack, Aguilar never wasted time and zoomed for the top post in the first heat of the pro class that saw Aguilar's former teammate back at Shell-Yamaha, Pepo Rubi, stopping after being hurt during a short landing.

Aguilar proceeded with another impressive run in the final heat, while Dumaguete's Uypitching trailed all the way for a second place finish. Kenneth San Andres landed at third.

Aguilar, a good friend of the man behind the event, Lou Ornopia, further awed the crowd with his fancy bicycle tricks up in the air to win the freestyle competition, the first ever in the series.

Dondon Yuson made sure he doesn't go home empty handed, taking the second place honors while Uypitching was adjudged third.

Quickflight's Ted Conde also grabbed part of the limelight for coming up with a double victory via the expert and pro intermediate classes.

Kenneth Belleza of Iloilo finished second to Conde in both categories, while San Andres wound up third in the expert and Jon-jon Adlawan of PowerSports Racing in the intermediate pro.

Jed Luna was also left with two championship trophies via the novice enduro against JB and Judy Bacabac, and in the beginners enduro over Quickflight's Bonnie Bustillo.

Bustillo, however, bounced back by topping the power enduro. Reiman Opulentisima and Rocky Ricafort finished second and third.

Another Bacabac, Bexter, won the executives A after outsmarting Aloy Igot and Jet-jet Olivaros, who came in second and third.

The executives B saw Nonoy Reluya on top of the heap as lawyer Flint Concha settled for second and Gener Sicad third.

The mini class was a clean sweep for PSR riders with Ryan Alquisola, Samantha Abellar and Ryan's brother filling up the top three sports.

Mark Paul Inoc ruled the beginners production, relegating Adam Uypitching to second and Heres Jun Suresca to third.

Kenneth Balleza snatched the novice production's top honors over Winsor Pamorca and Chai Hong Sy in the event also supported by Oriental Negros Governor George Arnaiz, RUSI, Caltex, Boboy Duminado, Viva Mineral Water, and Kawasaki.
