Duncan Scores at USABMX Super Nationals Debut

Lane Duncan wheeled his Redline Proline Junior bike to a top five finish at the USABMX Super Nationals in Desoto, Texas.  Duncan rode to a Fourth Place finish on Friday night, amid a very fast field of BMX'ers.  Several hundred racers converged on the Metroplex BMX facility, to battle for the titles in each class, on a very cold March weekend.
The Duncan MotoSports team returned on Saturday to record a Semi-Final round finish.  Duncan, aboard his #327 primary bike, was in position to advance to the finals again, when he suffered a nasty crash in the last turn, attempting to setup for a pass.  The young rider recovered and the bike was checked out, and both returned on Sunday to again race well, just missing the final round by one position.
This was the first national event for the rookie BMX team, and Lane was super proud of his accomplishments, in hanging with some of the fastest riders in the country !

DUNCAN 'MOTO'SPORTS BMX WINTER ACTION

With the LSGTPA tractor pulling season coming to a close, the Duncan Motorsports team has switched to racing action of the two wheel kind.  Lane Duncan has hung his fire suit up and donned his padded BMX gear, to mix it up with the Texas Division 1, USA-BMX competitors. Lane will be testing four BMX bike combinations in the next few weeks, and was licensed as #594.  After only a handful of races, Lane has shown great improvement with each event, and continues to improve with each outing.  BMX racing is a tough sport, with the professional riders making it look easy from the stands and on television !!  The sport is great fun and great exercise for those interested in staying fit, but has certainly proved to be an emotional sport, not for the weak at heart !  The team will work out at the Allen Station Park BMX track in Allen, and will practice and compete at the Metroplex BMX facility in Desoto, and the Cowtown BMX track in Ft. Worth this winter.  Lane is scheduled to make his national event debut at the Dallas USA-BMX Super Nationals, March 22-24.

DUNCAN PILOTS TEXAS T-REX TO TOP FIVE LSGTPA STANDINGS

Lane Duncan piloted his Texas T-Rex pulling tractor to a fourth place finish at the season finale in Rockdale, Texas.  The teams finish would leave them one point shy of the 2012 points lead, in the LSGTPA Championship Points chase, but would make the third year for the 'Texas T-Rex' and Lane finishing in the top five of the Youth Class competitors.  Lane and the entire 'Texas T-Rex' team would like to thank all of those who have made the 2012 pulling season possible !  Among those contributing to Lane's pulling success, are crew members Richard 'PawPaw' Duncan, Nancy 'Nannie' Duncan, Angel Duncan and crew chief Jeff Duncan.  Also, thank you to the original owner of the 'Texas T-Rex' Larry King and aunt Donna King who provided the tractor for which Lane began his LSGTPA Youth Class career !
