Maxxis' Beau Baron
Wins 2012 WORCS Opening Round
WORCS
ATV Racing – Round 1 – Glen Helen
MX
- Devore, CA - January 22, 2012
Suwanee, GA (1/24/2012) - With
a promising start to the 2012 season, Beau Baron
won Round 1 of the WORCS ATV series, held January
20-22 in Devore, California. Baron was joined on
the podium by his Maxxis/H&M Motorsports teammate
Davi Haagsma, who took third place.
Maxxis began the race in a strong position when
Haagsma grabbed the holeshot. Baron, who raced
despite a serious wrist injury sustained the previous
weekend, gained the lead in the second lap. He
later battled another rider for the front spot,
but retook first place in time to clinch his victory.
Both riders trusted the Maxxis Razr Xc in the
rear and the Razr 2 in front. Round 1 was Baron’s
first race on the Razr Xc, and he was pleased
by their performance: “The best thing about
them is the forward traction. Like when you are
exiting turns, once you are straight and off a
slide, the forward bite is phenomenal.”
