BRP Can-Am DS450 ATV Racers Podium at
WORCS Opener
Motoworks Josh Frederick &
Cole Henry Podium
Valcourt, Canada (1/26/2010) -
With rain inundating the desert southwest for most
of the leading days to the World Off-Road Championship
Series (WORCS) opening round at Speedworld MX Park
near Phoenix, AZ; it appeared the race would be
a muddy mess. However, the rain stopped just in
time to limit the mud and actually enhanced the
race course. In the end, Team Motoworks / Can-Am
DS 450™ EFI ATV racer Josh Frederick was able
to finish second in the pro class, while his teammate,
Dillon Zimmerman finished fifth in the class.
"Team Motoworks / Can-Am team is hungry
to win back the WORCS championship and Josh's
strong second place finish is a good start to
that goal," says Jimmie O'Dell, Racing Manager
for Can-Am ATVs at BRP. "It is nice to get
this first race out of the way and now we can
concentrate on consistent finishes by all the
racers on the team this season."
In the amateur ranks, Cole Henry raced his Motoworks
DS 450 to the Pro-Am win in his WORCS debut. Henry
is a regular on his DS 450 back east in the AMA
/ ATVA ATV Motocross Nationals and will be racing
the WORCS season as part of the Motoworks team.
The next round in the WORCS championship is February
27-28 near Primm, NV.
