Racing Team's Arctic Cat 1000 LTD 4x4

Thief River Falls, MN (11/30/2010)
-The Fines Double Racing Team consisting of Reid
Rutherford, Tony Valerio, Benn Vernadakis and Agustin
Maduena showed the rest of the Class 26 competition
that their Arctic Cat 1000 LTD 4x4 had what it takes
to win the 2010 Baja 1000.
Returning as the defending class champions, the
team piloted their big Cat to the finish line
with an amazing time of thirty-nine hours and
twenty-five minutes through the most adverse of
conditions, finishing four hours ahead of second
place and several sport ATVs and dirtbikes.
Team captain Reid Rutherford said, “We
knew our fiercest class competitor would be Mike
Penland on his Can-Am 800, but by the time we
hit San Felipe, we had a twenty minute lead on
second place and never looked back. The Arctic
Cat 1000 ran flawlessly for two days of endless
punishment. Winning this race is quite a statement
for the durability of the Arctic Cat product.”
For 2010, the race started in Ensenada, Mexico,
crossed the Peninsula twice and ended in the southern
city of La Paz totaling 1,067 race miles. The
terrain is described as primitive at best and
ever-changing with silt, rocks, water crossings,
heat, snow and outrageous elevation changes.
