Suwanee, GA (2/23/2012) - Baron,
who took the victory in the series’ opener
three weeks earlier, was pleased with his finish.
“I'm pretty pumped,” he said. “I
didn't expect too much of myself today because I
had been laying low after the first race because
of my wrist. I was thinking I was going to run out
of steam, but for some reason I put my head down
and ended up pulling it off. I'm happy about the
second." With 47 points, Baron is now tied
for the series’ overall Pro points lead. Teammate
David Haagsma also did well at Round 2, taking
fourth place despite sustaining a hand injury
during the race. "The race went great,”
he said. “I got a decent start and just
worked my way up. I had the lead for a couple
laps and got passed by [another rider]. I had
some problems with my hand and just couldn't hold
on. I ended up salvaging fourth." Both Baron
and Haagsma trusted Maxxis Razr 2 fronts and Razr
Xc rears for Round 2.
Maxxis’ riders triumphed over a rough course
to take the top two spots in Side x Side Production
1000. Robert Vanbeekum won the class on Maxxis’
new Vipr tires. “Nothing compares to this
new Vipr,” he said. “The traction
is unbelievable. At high speeds when I turn the
car, I get an immediate response, and that allowed
me to drive the car faster and harder in the turns
than I have ever been able to.” Maxxis rider
Ryan Piplic joined Vanbeekum on the podium in
second place. With this finish plus a class win
at Round 1, Piplic has the early season class
points lead.
Maxxis thanks Beau Baron, David Haagsma, Ryan
Piplic and all its riders for their fine performances
and congratulates Robert Vanbeekum on his victory.
