Turbo UTV racing debut at the Pahrump
Nugget 250 in a brand new Polaris RZR
XP 4 Turbo |
The track was easily the most difficult of
the season, featuring tough rock sections
and heavy silt beds. With little wind, dust
made visibility difficult. Though it marked
the Romo’s BITD debut, in a brand-new car,
they had few issues and finished, while many
BITD veterans fell out with issues.
“Honestly, I couldn’t be more thrilled to
finish a 250-mile race in a brand new car,”
said Randy Romo. “It’s a big accomplishment
and a tribute to the cars that Mark builds.
I looked at the finishing list and if you
look at the names of the drivers that finished
behind us, these are guys that have doing
this for years. I can’t be more proud of how
Sierra co-drove and we’re just ecstatic.”

Randy
Romo & Sierra Romo will both be
competing in Holz Racing Polaris RZR's
in 2018 in both the BITD and WORCS Series |
The new Polaris RZR is one of several the
machines they will be running next season.
Holz is currently building a center-seat Polaris
RZR for Sierra to campaign in WORCS series
“Everyone in the Romo family will be racing
Holz products,” said Randy Romo. “Sierra has
a new center seat being built for WORCS. He
doesn’t usually build center seat cars, but
he wanted to make sure we were all running
his cars so he made an exception.”

finished 12th in their BITD Pro Turbo
UTV racing debut |
Sierra Romo, who came into her own in WORCS
this season, is still in high school, but
is exhibiting the skill and determination
required to be a championship-level driver.
She co-drove with her father, but will be
in the driver’s seat when the series kicks
off its 2018 season in January.
“The other racers were saying that was, by
far, the roughest terrain this year so to
come out here in our first race and finish
was a win for us,” said Sierra Romo. “I love
being out there with my dad and watching his
lines. I always learn so much from him. I
am super stoked for this opportunity and I
can’t thank my parents enough.”
The Romo family will have a busy 2018 as
they will contest both the WORCS and BITD
season. Look for Randy and Sierra, both driving
a Holz RZR, as BITD kicks off its 2018 season
January 5-6 in Parker, AZ.
