Robbie Mitchell Takes First
WORCS Pro ATV Win
::Continued::
“I kicked my bike like it was going to start,
put it in gear and it didn’t move, so I kicked
it a few more times, put it in neutral, shook
it, kicked and finally got it going,” said Baron.
“By that time, I was 30 seconds behind. I knew
I was going to have my hands full today trying
to get to the front, and I came pretty damn close.
It was a good battle, and I’m glad he won. He’s
been trying for a long time and it’s good to see
him try hard all the way through. There were a
few times I pulled up beside him, but the next
corner was so quick that I couldn’t pass.”

in 2016, which now has him tied with Doug

he settled for third. His seventh podium this
season placed the rookie third in points.

Mike Sloan finished out the season on the
podium & he finished 3rd in the WORCS
Pro ATV Points championship |
“We were fighting hard for that second spot,
but I hit a huge rock with my right foot so that
slowed me down a little bit,” said Sloan. “I finished
third in the race and third for the year so that’s
really good. I got on the box in my rookie season.”
Pro Motorsport’s Matt Hancock is retiring from
running full time in WORCS ATV competition to
focus on his SXS efforts. He came out here to
enjoy his final ATV race and ended up with his
best career WORCS ATV finish.

Motorsport's Matt Hancock finished a season
best 4th place in the WORCS Pro ATV Class
at the season finale |
“I just went out there and had fun,” said Hancock.
“I wasn’t killing myself by any means. I just
rode my own race and I capitalized on some of
the guys in front of me having trouble. It was
good to go out and have fun and get my best finish
ever. I’ll do some local series in ATVs, and I’ll
still race the SXS. I’m just taking a year off
of WORCS ATV and try to enjoy some other aspects
of racing.”
