JDR Motorex KTM’s Matt Moss is eyeing a clean-sweep in the Pro Lites class of the Monster Energy Super X, Australasian Supercross Championship, after a dream start to his 2011 campaign.

The 23-year-old stormed to his second win in a row at Wollongong’s second round last Saturday night, requiring just three more wins to sweep the series as the halfway point approaches tomorrow night.

With Campbelltown marking the Emu Plains-based JDR team’s home round, victory will be the aim for all on Saturday.

Moss has been untouchable in rounds one and two for the JDR team despite rain-soaked conditions, however this weekend should mark his first opportunity to display his undeniable talent in the dry for 2011.

“I was stoked to get that second win last weekend and I’d love to clean-sweep this whole championship,” Moss said. “I just want to keep that red plate as series leader, so everything is going to plan.

“I’ve never felt this good on the bike before, so I can’t wait for Campbelltown.”

Queensland-based teammate Brenden Harrison will enter round three hot on the heels of Moss, currently second in the series after a pair of third place finishes to kick-start his season. He’s 10 points in arrears of Moss.
