Nathan was handed 6th place overall for the series, a phenomenal effort for his maiden year racing aboard a 450cc motocrosser.

Team Manager, Troy Carroll, said “It was a shame that the final round was so muddy. We would have liked to have more decent condition for the last round of the year, however Nathan rode extremely well and Dan secured second in the championship, so overall it was a fantastic results and a great end to the year.”
