- Motoworks’ Josh Frederick came on strong

while Dillon Zimmerman’s consistency allowed

Josh
Frederick took his third win of the
2010 season while racing at round
6, increasing his overall points lead
heading into round 7 in the State
of Washington
|
The Cahuilla Creek MX Park, the hosting facility
for round six, saw dry and dusty conditions,
but the desert like terrain is where Josh
Frederick feels at home and it showed as he
was in the top five off the start. Frederick
paced himself and waited for the leaders to
make a mistake and that’s exactly what
happened, which allowed him to move into the
number two spot behind Beau Baron. Frederick
would battle with Baron for several laps and
in the final lap, Frederick would give an
extra push to take over the lead and pull
away, giving Frederick his third win of the
season.
“I really needed this win. Beau Baron
and I are really close this year and this
win gives me a little more of a comfort zone,
but anything can still happen so I will still
be out there giving it my all,” stated
Frederick.

Motoworks'
Dillon Zimmerman has moved into 5th
in points after a 6th place finish at
Cahuilla Creek |
Rookie Pro, Dillon Zimmerman has been quite consistent all season long and this
round was no exception. Zimmerman was just outside
of the top five off the line and was looking
strong as he battled for position.
Zimmerman would eventually end his day in
the number six spot and putting him in a comfortable
fifth place in the pro points chase. “I’m
pretty excited to be fifth in points. That
was my goal for this season so I am hoping
to keep it there,” said Zimmerman.

Jeremie
Warnia grabbed the Pro Class holeshot
aboard his Motoworks Can-AM ATV but
a late moto crash would send him back
a few spots |
Jeremie Warnia came out for round six as well and got a great start, taking the
holeshot, but as he and Dustin Nelson were battling
for the lead, Warnia would crash, sending him
back several places.
With only three more rounds to go for the
2010 season, the team is on track with their
goals and if Josh Frederick’s luck holds
out, he could very well reclaim the championship.
Round seven of the 2010 WORCS series will
head to the state of Washington where Straddleline
ORV Park will play host on July 24th –
25th as Josh Frederick goes for his fourth
win on the season.
