Vista, CA (4/26/2011) – Motoworks’ Josh Frederick charged hard and topped the pro podium, with his first win of the season at round four of the 2011 WORCS series, while teammate Jeremie Warnia joined him on the podium in third.

Cahuilla Creek in Anza, CA was the hosting facility for this event and the track had been groomed to near perfection. A little drizzle fell in the morning to help keep the dust down and made for good racing in the afternoon pro main event.

The ideal track conditions helped Josh Frederick to take his first win of the season. “It feels good to finally get a win. We made a few suspension changes to the quad for this round and it worked flawlessly,” said Frederick, who flew off the starting line in fourth place.

Frederick worked his way up and made his way around Dustin Nelson to take over the number three spot. Frederick kept a fast pace and rode smart, staying close to the leaders, teammate Jeremie Warnia, and Beau Baron. Frederick was patient and it paid off as he was able to pass both riders as they stopped in the pits. In the final laps, Frederick would have to pit for gas as well, which allowed Warnia to pass him, but Frederick was on a mission and was able to take back the lead, when Warnia bobbled a bit. Frederick then held that lead all the way to the checkered flag. “I just have to thank Can-Am, Motoworks, Johnny Leach and the entire crew for all of their help. This was my first win and I am hoping it is just the start of more to come,” said Frederick, who is currently second in the points chase.

Jeremie Warnia led for six laps with a recorded fastest lap time of 09:51.869

Jeremie Warnia had an impressive run as he led for six laps and recorded the fastest lap time of the race in lap two with a time of 09:51.869. Warnia was in second off the start and made a quick pass on Dustin Nelson to take over the lead. Warnia fought hard but would eventually fall back to third place when he went off the track in the final lap. Although he finished in third, Warnia still retains the pro points lead. “I am a little disappointed but I am going to train harder and I am hoping to win at the next round because I really want to win a championship,” said Warnia.

Dillon Zimmerman, who is still recovering from an injury to his shoulder was showing improvement as he was able to work his way into an eighth place finish.
