Prather and Scott managed to top the podium even
though Prather took time from the course early
on to help an injured motorcycle rider, fashioning
a makeshift splint from two sticks. The race was
a close one, as riders battled dust, construction
delays and misplaced course markers over the 534-mile
route. “We had a great race,” said
Prather. “Our CT Racing Honda ran strong
the whole race with no flats at all, and we went
the entire race on one set of Maxxis Razr tires!
It was exciting towards the end with how close
the competition was. Thank you so much to all
of our sponsors who made it possible for us to
pull off this win.” Prather and Scott also
did well in overall standings for the race, with
an eighth-place finish.
For Brown, Fuller and the rest of the Quad75Dezert
crew, Vegas to Reno was an equally close and exciting
contest. "It was the dustiest race I have
ever done,” Fuller noted afterward. “I
had so much fun and am stoked that we finished
as close as we did," Fuller said after the
race. "I came into this race not knowing
one thing about desert racing and think for my
first race we did pretty good." In addition
to their second-place spot on the podium in Pro
ATV, Quad75Dezert finished ninth overall.
Maxxis congratulates Danny Prather and David
Scott on their victory and thanks the riders of
Quad75Dezert for their fine performances.
