Justin Waters Matches Best Pro Career Finish at Glen Helen WORCS
WORCS ATV Racing Nationals - Round 8 - Glen Helen

#95 Justin Waters

HotSeat Powersports: You've had a month break since the last WORCS race; what have you been doing to stay in shape, prepare for this round?

Justin Waters: “I tried to treat this past month just like when the races are closer together, not giving myself much of a break. I'm of course still working with the guys from MotoX Nutrition to keep my body and mind ready.”

HotSeat Powersports: With all the DNF's throughout the weekend, the extreme heat and drama in Sunday's final, it seemed this round was a battle of attrition - mechanical and physical. What did you do to prep your equipment - anything different?

Justin Waters:“I knew that Glen Helen was going to be a race that required a lot of power so I came into this race with a freshly built motor and a new exhaust design from Devil Racing Exhausts. The track was fast like I expected and my quad was pulling hard up the hills, so that definitely paid off.”

HotSeat Powersports: Sixth place ties your best finish of the year (also placed 6th at Speedworld at the start of the season) - you have to be really happy with that.

Justin Waters:"I've been training hard, but I have caught a bit of good luck these last couple races and I'm totally stoked with the 6th. I actually crashed in the Pro section during qualifying on Saturday so I gotta thank Ed from Teixeira Tech and my mechanic, my dad, for getting my quad prepped again for the race
Sunday.”

HotSeat Powersports: So you have one more round and you are sitting solidly in 7th in points; what are you planning for Mesquite?

Justin Waters:“I'm just looking at this like any other race. I'm not the type to take the race easy and just get a finish to keep my 7th. I'm gonna push hard to try and beat [Mike] Cafro and hope for a little more good luck.”

HotSeat Powersports: Any hint at news you can tell us for next year?

Justin Waters:“There isn't too much that I can talk about yet. But me and my new team have some big things in store for all of the ATV racing industry. Yeah, new team. We are putting together a team that can win races, but we will also be doing a lot to support the industry and get all the racers the exposure that we work so hard to earn!”
