Wimmer, who finished a strong second in Sunday’s
main event, turned in strong performances throughout
the weekend, capturing the holeshot and the win in Saturday’s
second heat. Doug Gust also did well, taking third place
in the main after grabbing the holeshot - his third
great start of the weekend. The remaining spots in the
overall top six were taken by, in order, Lost Creek/Suzuki’s
Joe Haavisto, Suzuki privateer Russell Shumaker, and
Lonestar/Honda’s Keith Little.
Scott Kilby took the victory in the Quad Terrain Challenge.
Piloting a Maxxis-shod Warnert Racing Can-Am, he grabbed
the holeshot and never looked back, while teammate Adam
Vaughn rode Bighorns to second place. In other action,
reigning champ Angela Butler continues to dominate the
Women’s A class with a streak of moto wins spanning
the lifetime of the WPSA series.
Maxxis congratulates Chad Wienen, Scott Kilby, and
Angela Butler on their victories and thanks all its
sponsored riders for their fine performances.
