Beautiful weather greeted those who attended WORCS Racing round 8 at Honey Lake MX this weekend. Racers had a very narrow and rocky course to contend with that didn’t allow for very many passing opportunities, so many racers were pushing it to the edge to gain a spot.
|
“My
Holz, Polaris, Walker Evans, Sparks race
car held together great and got me off to
a good start. My Maxxis tires hooked up
all the way to the first corner and I couldn’t
ask for anything more,” said Baron
about his holeshot. |
Maxxis’ Beau Baron scored the holeshot
from the first row in his Sparks Racing powered
Polaris RZR XP 900 with Pablo Veglia and Ryan
Piplic battling for position close behind. Lapped
traffic was a continuous issue due to the tight
course and limited areas to pass.
|
“The course was so tight
we had to wait to get to the motocross track
in order to pass. It made it really tough
because the guys behind me were giving me
some love taps here and there, and I knew
it would be a free-for-all once this particular
lapper got out of the way,” said Baron.
|
Baron was feeling the pressure
from Vaglia and Piplic early on the race, but
the pair collided while battling for the second
spot, which gave Baron some breathing room as
he cruised to the win in the final laps, which
extended his points lead to thirteen points over
Piplic heading into the final round.
