With the 2008 Olympic debut just around the corner for BMX racing, the buzz and hype is all around. There is getting to be more and more of the media frenzy at each event. Many of the sports top athletes from around the world were on hand to take a shot at getting some much needed points towards the ABA BMX titles. The 2008 season is shifting into high gear and the fans are loving it! Round three continued to be Danny C.and David Herman show.They were spotted all over the PRO podiums on the weekend. "DR" Donny Robinson made an appearance for the fans in Desoto and nailed down a solid second in AA PRO on day #1. Past 3-time ABA National #1 PRO, Bubba Harris, continued to show the fans he's on the comeback trail. Bubba was seen making some of his pattended swoop moves in the turns and looked great through the rhythm sections. It was great to see Bubba back up on the podium and I expect to see that a lot more from the former champ! Current ABA National #1 PRO, Danny "Easy Money" Caluag, continued his win streak of at least winning one at each of the ABA BMX PRO series stops. "Easy Money" brought home his third AA PRO win of the season on day one. Day #2 saw Danny C. in the main but some tough racing kept him off the box. Danny is proving once again his ABA National #1 PRO tile was no fluke! Day #2 saw Kyle Bennett take his first AA PRO win of the year. Kyle looks to be making a very strong bid for the USA's first ever BMX Olympic team. Kyle seems to be on a mission and on track to be in China in 2008. One things for sure, Kyle is one exciting guy to watch! David Herman put in another solid ride on day #2 with a second for the day and his performance for the weeknd also moved him up to 2nd in the ABA BMX PRO points battle charts behind team mate Danny C. Day #2 also saw Randy Stumpfhauser back on the podium. Randy looked to be one of the fastest guys all weekend. Which was a surprise considering he was just coming off a bad injury. Stumpy is about as solid as they come in the PRO ranks and you can never count the guy out for a win.

On the Ladies side we saw the return of ABA National #1 ladies PRO Alise Post. Everyone was excited to see the showdown between Alise and Dominique Daniels. And the ladies didn't disappoint the fans! They battled out all weekend long and the Metroplex stands were going crazy! Alise showed why she's #1 and stood on top of the box both days. Dominique stayed strong and should she know "rookie" taking home a 2nd and 3rd for the weekend. Day #1 saw Amanda Geving on the box with a solid 3rd. Day #2 saw another rookie PRO sensation Rachel Luna finish up the day with a solid 2nd. The ladies racing has really stepped it up over the last couple of years and the new crop of younger woman is very promissing for more excitement to come.

Pro Cruiser was the ABA National #1 PRO Cruiser rider Danny C., Kenth Fallen, and Tyler Brown battling out this weekend. These three went at it toe to toe and when the dust settled it was Tyler Brown with a one, two for the weekend. Danny C. had a bad crash on day #1's main event, but he came back strong on day #2 win another big win. Kenth Fallen hung tough with a two and three for the weekend. Mike GUL should he can still hang with the big boys and nailed down a 3rd on day #1. The PRO Cruiser battle charts have really tightened up and it should be a very interesting season to see who comes out on top.

Vet Pro was one heck of a show between Fallen, Street, and Tim Dinger. Kenth Fallen continued to show he`s the man to beat in Vet PRO right. Kenth picked up the VET PRO win both days and now looks to be stretching out his points lead for the season. Chad Street looked as fast as ever and was all over Kenth most of the weekend. Chad had some bad luck come main time, but many of fans were calling the home town boy for a win. Chad was able to bring home a 2nd and 3rs for the weekend. Onther rider that continues to impress is the skinny kid out of North Carolina. Tim Dinger has some blazing speed and skills to pay the bills. Many say Dinger made the move of the weekend when Chad Street went down in turn two in front of Dinger and Tim just bunny hopped him and didn't miss a beat on the track. It was a very impressive piece of riding I must say. Both Street and Dinger look to be title contender come ABA Grands time!

The ABA, the city of Desoto, TX. and the entire Metroplex crew would like to thank all the participants, families, teams, sponsors, and BMX industry for helping make the Desoto, TX. event such a huge success!
