Suwanee, GA (3/23/2012) - Maxxis’
new Razr Xc tires took David Haagsma to second place
at Round 3 of the WORCS ATV series, held March 18
in Lake Havasu City, Arizona.
A rookie in the Pro class, Haagsma earned the
best finish of his career to date. The podium
was the second of the season for the Maxxis/H&M
Motorsports rider. “The track conditions
at Havasu were brutal. It was so rough,”
he said. “The track is full of rocks and
sand, and it’s my least favorite track on
the schedule. I’m so pumped to come out
of this track with a second! The new Xc rear has
worked great at every track we have used them
at and proved to do so again! Our tires still
look new after an hour and 45 minutes of misery.”
Teammate Beau Baron also did well and held the
lead for the first half of the race, but finished
fourth after a high-speed crash set him back.
Baron and Haagsma are now second and third in
series points.
Team MCR’s Mike Cafro overcame a case of
the flu to grab the holeshot for Maxxis, and later
said that the Razrs helped him bolt from the gate
ahead of the competition. In the Pro Am class,
Keith Johnson took both the holeshot and the second
place spot on the podium. Johnson now leads the
points race in the Pro Am class.
In the hotly contested SxS 1000 class, Baron
turned in a second place finish on his new Vipr
tires, and is now tied for second in points. “The
Viprs worked great,” he said. “The
best thing about them was in the deep sand, they
stayed straight and kept forward traction. The
straight traction was awesome, and even in corners
the rear end didn’t step out like you thought
it would.” Maxxis driver Ryan Piplic had
an off day at round 3, finishing 18th, but still
sits second in points.
Maxxis congratulates David Haagsma and all of
its sponsored riders for their fine performances.
