Pala Raceway hosts ARMA Energy Triple Crown motocross season finale

Cameron Bannock of Valley Center shows off his trophies at Pala Raceway.

On Dec. 12, Pala Raceway held the ARMA Energy Triple Crown MX Series’ final race.
Cameron Bannock of Valley Center took first in both 250 Novice moto races,
while Dusty Phares of Pauma Valley placed third in both motos.
Overall, Bannock placed first in the 250 Novice class and second in the Schoolboy class. Phares placed fourth overall in the 250 Novice class while recovering from a dislocated hip suffered two days before the second round.
This race series will be Bannock’s last race as a 250 Novice rider, as he will be moving up to the 250 Intermediate class. Phares hopes to dominate the 250 Novice class and move up to the Intermediate class after six months as well.
Both these riders have tons of heart and drive to be the best and are currently looking for financial sponsors, to help them be able to pay for traveling and parts.
Phares’s current sponsors are Renthal, Dunlop, No Fear, Escondido Cycle Center, SPY Optics, Yoshimura, Globe shoes, Factory Backing, Factory Connection, Cycra, Amsoil, MotoHose, ASV. Bannock’s sponsors are, North County House of Motorcycles, Factory Connection, No Fear, SPY Optics, Monster, and Factory Backing.
Even with the help of these big names it still isn’t enough to be able for them to race as much as it is needed.
They both plan on being a professional Motocross/ Supercross racer by the time they are 19 or 20 years of age.
