Phoenix, AZ (5/25/2012)
-Racetown 395 brought on the heat and some awesome
racing for WORCS Round 5. The conditions were
in the 90's and testing the endurance of both
the amateur and pro riders. Kyler Thau, 224y took
his third 3 class sweep for the season, taking
in the win on Saturday in the 70 Production and
continued to remain undefeated in the Sport 8-15yr
old class. Laying down the fastest lap times,
Kyler was able to hold on to the lead in the Sport
class after getting wild in the off-road section
and rolling the quad a few times which brought
him thru the checkered flag holding up his visor
as it had partially ripped off his helmet. Amazing
enough, it didn't seem to phase him one bit and
his Answer Racing gear has been protecting him
well and its been put it to the test in the 2012
season.
Sunday morning Kyler took the 70 Open class
win and the overall, edging out the competition
in all heats for that race. With 15 races so
far in 2012, Kyler has had a great season with
12 first place finishes. His Elka Suspension
once again preformed amazingly well and it makes
a notable difference in not just how the machine
handles but even how it looks to observers as
several spectators commented how smooth his
landings look and how the machines suspension
just seems to flow unrestricted over the demands
of the track conditions. With the help of his
Maxxis tires and Flexx bars, Kyler's machine
truly allows him to race a great race on quality
equipment.
With a venue change for round 6, WORCS racing
will take us to Central, Utah to On the Edge
Raceway on June 15-17th. A new location for
WORCS, this track looks fun and challenging
bringing streams, rocks and of course lots and
lots of dirt.
