Suwanee, GA (5/15/2012) - Maxxis
landed on the podium in three major ATV series over
the weekend, with victories for Chris Borich, Beau
Baron and Brad Riley. Team Maxxis/H&M’s
Baron won Round 5 of WORCS, while Borich won Round
6 of the GNCC and Brad Riley took first place in
the Pro Am Unlimited class of the Extreme Dirt Track
Nationals opener.
Baron took his third win of the season and now
leads the WORCS Pro class in points. Riding Razr
Xc rears and Razr 2 fronts, he grabbed the holeshot
and held the lead for the rest of the race. “The
Razr Xc hooked up so good off the start line,”
he said. “I wheelied really bad on a practice
start and had to get way up on the tank for the
actual start. They shot me out in front of everyone
right off the bat!” Teammate David Haagsma
took second place for the day and is third in
points for the series. Mike Cafro also earned
a spot in the top ten with seventh place and is
eighth overall for the Pro class. Round 5 of WORCS’
ATV series was held May 13 in Adelanto, California.
Borich grabbed the lead in the last lap of the
GNCC race to take his fifth win of the year. He
appreciated the performance of his Razr rear and
Razr 2 front tires: “The track turned out
to be really good. It had a lot of moisture, and
the tires hooked up awesome. I was literally pushing
people up the hills on their rear bumpers.”
Borich was joined on the XC1 podium by Taylor
Kiser in third place. Walker Fowler grabbed fifth
place and Brian Wolf took seventh. Kiser, Fowler
and Wolf also used the Razr rear/Razr 2 front
combo. Defending champ Borich leads the XC1 standings,
with Kiser and Fowler in third and fourth places
and Brian Wolf in sixth.
Gabe Phillips won the XC2 class and is second
in XC2 standings with three class wins. Team UXC’s
Michael Swift and Cliff Beasley were fourth and
fifth overall in the morning race, with Traci
Cecco in sixth place. Beasley remains undefeated
in the U2 class, while Swift is second overall
in 4x4 Open and Cecco leads the Women’s
class. Round 6 of the GNCC was held May 12-13
in Springville, Indiana.
Riding soft compound Razr TT tires, Riley made
the Extreme Dirt Track (EDT) Nationals podium
with second place finishes in Pro and Pro Am and
a win in Pro Am Unlimited. “The track turned
out pretty good. It was kind of dry and slick,
and a little sandy. The tires hooked up and had
really good side bite. They’re awesome.
They really shine on dry, slick tracks,”
he said. Daryl Rath took sixth in the Pro class
and tenth in Pro Am Unlimited, while Kirby Cooke
grabbed second place on the Pro Am Unlimited podium.
Round 1 of the EDT Nationals was held May 12 in
Kinston, North Carolina.
Maxxis thanks all of these riders for their fine
performances.
