Peoria, AZ -The 2013 Rocky Mountain ATV MX WORCS SxS series Presented by Motoworks and Dirtwheels kicked off in a wet fashion at Canyon MX in Peoria, Arizona, and Polaris / Holz Racing’s Beau Baron dominated the new Pro SxS Production class with the win.   Dragon Fire’s Ken Benson and Black Rhino’s Greg Row rounded out the Pro SxS Production podium.

For 2013, WORCS Series added the SxS Pro Production Class with payouts to the top five finishers.  The first place finisher in the class earns $800, second place claims $500, third takes $400 and paychecks are written all the way to fifth position.

Despite the wet forecast, the new SxS Pro Production class attracted 23 racers for the WORCS season opener,  and the brutal track conditions would take its toll on man and machine with the area receiving  over an inch of rain leading up to the race.

After some reconfiguring of the track due to all of the standing water, mud and mess, the SxS Pro Production drivers started on time at 2:45PM. Holz Racing / H&M Motorsports' Beau Baron grabbed the holeshot with his Sparks powered Polaris RZR XP 900 and never looked back as he lead from start to finish to secure the win with five minutes to spare over second place.

"Everything worked really well. I got a great start and led from the first lap to the checkers. I pulled over for some goggles and stuff but all in all it went really good. I actually enjoyed it even though it was so nasty," regarded Baron on his win.
