Lynden, WA (8/2/2012) - The two driver team of Beau Baron and Mark Holz traveled halfway around the world, to Saint- Martin-en-Haut, France to compete in the La Motor’s Courses De Quad & SSV race held July 28 & 29th.

The team received a Polaris RZR XP Polaris France that was prepped by Xtreme Plus to compete against a tough field of RZR XPs, RZRs and Commanders. In the end, the solid driving of Beau and Mark, allowed them to gain a lap on the competition and back down the pace to save the car and win the overall.

Beau took that momentum into the 1.5 hour night race and put a lap on the field. Sunday the US Drivers picked up where they left off and each drove a smart, smooth race to finish on top of the box with the win.

When the dust settled after the 6.5 hours of racing, 17 of the 40 car field finished. Attrition was a factor as the course littered with huge holes and waist deep berms caused DNFs for the teams that weren’t prepared. The mechanics from Xtreme Plus, winners of the sxs class at the 2012 Dakar Rally, prepped the RZR XP and provided solid pit support all weekend contributing to the win. Looking ahead, Holz and the Scott Kiger Coastal/HRP RZR XP will compete at the Best in the
