Dustin Nelson Wins Racetown 395 WORCS Pro
ATV Race
|
Adelanto, CA - Yamaha’s Dustin
Nelson charged his way to his first WORCS pro win
of the season at round four after grabbing the pro
holeshot and checking out on the competition. Joining
Nelson on the podium was Can-Am/Motoworks’
Josh Frederick and Jeremie Warnia.
While most racers on the east coast were up to
their nerf bars in mud this weekend, the west
coast WORCS racers enjoyed sunny skies and warm
temperatures for round four of the 2010 WORCS
series hosted by Racetown 395 in Adelanto, CA.
The great weather seemed to agree with Yamaha’s
Dustin Nelson as he shot off the line to grab
the Holeshot, but it was not all smooth sailing
for Nelson as he was under pressure from Can-Am/Motoworks’
Jeremie Warnia right from the start. Warnia and
Nelson were battling hard all through the first
lap and then in lap two, Warnia tried to make
a move on Nelson, but instead of making the pass,
Warnia ended up crashing, which allowed Nelson
to pull away from the rest of the pack.

Nelson was able to keep a comfortable lead for
the rest of the race, finishing almost 40 seconds
ahead of second place. “Finally!”
exclaimed Dustin Nelson regarding his win. “Everything
went great for me out there. I had some bad luck
earlier in the season, and it gets frustrating
when things don’t go right, but last week
I got the win at Quadcross and now I got the win
at WORCS. It’s such a relief and it’s
really a good confidence builder for me. Now I
feel ready for another win,” Nelson concluded.

#2
Josh Frederick claimed the 2nd spot |
Can-Am/Motoworks’ Josh Frederick had a strong
race as came off the line quickly and was soon in
third place behind teammate Warnia. Frederick stayed
on the throttle and took over the number two spot
when Warnia crashed in lap two. From there, Frederick
kept a steady pace and was unchallenged for the
entire race, but despite his best efforts, he was
unable to close the gap on Nelson and would claim
the second spot on the podium. “I went out
there and kind of played it safe this time. I still
have the points lead, but I want to keep it that
way, so I will be going for the win at Milford,”
said Frederick.
