Baron took an impressive win abaord his
Roll Design prepped Honda TRX450R ATV at
Glen Helen WORCS |
San Bernadino, CA (9/26/2011) - All
eyes were on the front runners as WORCS round seven
proved to be anything but predictable. After an
hour and forty minutes of racing, it was Beau Baron
that claimed the checkered flag at Glen Helen -
his first WORCS win this season. "After I got
into the lead, my work was not done and there was
no time to relax because I could still see Warnia,
Haagsma, Frederick and Nelson charging, and they
were not going to let me breathe easily," remembered
Baron. "This race has really tightened up the
series points chase and makes the battle for the
championship more exciting. I am going to do my
best to prepare for the final two rounds, and no
matter how it ends it is sure to be exciting."
Baron currently sits just twelve points out of first
place.
Dustin Nelson picked up second place, finishing
just twelve seconds behind Baron. Nelson was riding
with an injured right arm after an unfortunate
incident during Saturday qualifying. "I had
a pretty good crash in qualifying practice. It
beat up my arm a little, but I was still able
to qualify in third position," said Nelson.
Nelson fought injury related arm pump during the
first half of Sunday's Pro Main. "After my
pit stop, I was running in fourth position. There
was a pro-am rider down, and he was blocking the
pro downhill. The top six or seven pros were all
lined up waiting. When the track cleared we all
raced hard. I passed Frederick when he pitted,
and on the last lap made my way past Haagsma for
2nd."
It's his rookie season as a pro WORCS racer,
but David Haagsma has already staked his place
loudly at the top of the pack. At Glen Helen,
Haagsma nabbed his second holeshot in the Pro
class this season on his Roll Design / Elka /
MCR / H&M Motorsports Honda, finishing on
the leader's minute and just eleven seconds away
from the third podium spot.
Pro Race: 1st, Beau Baron; 2nd, Dustin Nelson;

In the Pro-Am class, Roll Design riders also
dominated the finisher podium with Chase Thomas
picking up a second place finish and Keith Johnson
taking third. Garrin Fuller managed a fourth place
finish.
