The SxS track featured several gnarly sections with rocks, dust and rough terrain. There was also a lagoon jump to test the driver’s skills; the lagoon jump was a fan favorite point to watch the action.

Cognito Motorsport’s Ryan Piplic raced his Polaris RZR XP 900 to his first win of the season. Piplic rocketed off the line and quickly fell into second place behind current point’s leader, Beau Baron. Piplic kept a close distance to the leader and push his RZR to the limit. Piplic was able to overtake the lead on the second half of the race and secure his first win this season.

“My Cognito Polaris RZR worked awesome. I had luck on my side. Cognito built me a great car and they are the number one reason the RZR stayed together and I am up here. The track was rough, but I had a good time. The lagoon jump was a crowd pleaser and really added to the track,” said Piplic after the race.

Cody Bradbury lined up for his first ever WORCS race hoping for a solid finish; he made the goal a reality by earning second the SxS Pro Production Class. Bradbury had to work hard, he was in 19th place when he came through scoring on lap one. He charged and raced smart to overtake fourth on lap six. He continued to push and was able to secure second for the day when the checkers flew on lap seven.

“I usually race the DIRT Series, and I wanted to try something new so we came out here and I had a great time. The track was great. I had a few minor issues out there, but it all came together in the end. My family came out to support me today and I can’t thank them enough,” regarded Bradbury from the podium.

John Pacheco earned his season best finish aboard his Can-Am Maverick and took the final podium position in the SxS Pro Production Class. Pacheco had his #17 Maverick in ninth place on lap one. He worked through the traffic and carnage to take the third spot on lap six. He was able to hold the position until the checkers and get his IMG Maverick on the podium.

“This was such a good time. I worked hard to keep it together and keep all the wheels on my Maverick. There was a lot of carnage out there and I almost lost it a few times in the rough stuff, but I am really happy I kept it all together. IMG, James Hill, Pro Armor and ITP really helped me out and I am glad to get on the box for them,” said Pacheco from the podium.
