Corona, CA: Answer Racing's Todd Potter and Mike Mason lay claim to X-Games 17!

Answer Racing's Todd Potter and Mike Mason laid claim to some costly metal at the 2011 X-Games as each rider came away with a Silver medal at this years event.

Decked out in our new 2012 Answer Racing gear, Potter started the weekend off by throwing some of the largest whips of the night. At one point, it looked like Potter was going to throw the bike all the way around for a 360, but somehow brought it back and landed his whip. These whips netted him the silver medal and continued his domination in X-Games Best Whip contest.

Next up on the weekend was Answer's Mike Mason, who was sporting the new 2012 Answer Racing Rockstar gear, in the Speed and Style event. Mason jumped out to the quick lead and held it the remainder of the final, but came up a little short in the combined trick and race event. Mason was throwing huge backflips and KOD's, which helped propel him into the silver medal for this years Speed and Style event.

Everyone at Answer would like to congratulate Mike Mason and Todd Potter on a great job at this years X-Games.
