Maxxis' Matt Parks Wins Second BITD Bluewater Desert Challenge
Best in The Desert Racing Series - Round 8 - Parker, AZ - October 16, 2011

Parks came into the race just seven points from the overall UTVP points lead, with two victories and two additional podiums under his belt this year.

Starting from fifth place on Saturday, he worked his way to second place by the end of the race. His strong finish Saturday allowed him to start in second place on Sunday: “Coming into the hot pit, we were only 30 seconds behind [another team], and by the end of the three-mile Parker Python infield section, we were within 20 seconds,” he said. “The course on Day 2 was really torn up after 175 race vehicles each did three laps on the 25- mile course. The whoops were massive, the silt blinding and the ruts so deeps that we dragged the skid plate.” He eventually took over the lead Sunday, and won the event with a margin of nearly 10 seconds based on his cumulative time from both days of racing.

“This was my second race on the new Maxxis Vipr tires and once again, they performed flawlessly, with zero flats and great high-speed stability,” Parks added.

Maxxis congratulates Matt Parks on his victory and wishes him the best in Best in the Desert’s Henderson 250, the final race of the season
