Tempe, AZ (8/4/2015) - Matt Hancock finished second in the Open A class and third in Pro Am WORCS X during a busy weekend for Pro Motorsports’ Matt Hancock at Round 7 of the WORCS Racing series at Straddleline ORV Park in Olympia, WA.

Hancock competed in six races here during a special doubleheader weekend that featured two different races for the WORCS Pro and Pro Am competitors. In Open A, Hancock hooked up right from the start and very nearly chased down the leader. “My Sparks engine and Maxxis Tires ripped off the line,” said Hancock, who is now first in Open A by just one point. “Points are so important right now with just two races to go.”

Hancock finished third in the special Pro-Am WORCS X race. The four-lap event was held Saturday evening on a special Enduro-Cross course. “It was a fast-paced race, and I came prepared,” said Hancock of the weekend. “The WORCS X race was really interesting. I started strong and held on to finish third.

Hancock finished seventh in the regular WORCS Pro-Am race on Sunday after being sidelined briefly with a bent sprocket, and he now sits second in the Pro-Am Championship. “I had a great start in Sunday’s race and I got second really quickly,” said Hancock. “But I got hung up in the logs on the first lap. I kept pushing, and blew out a berm. I broke the rear sprocket. I lost two laps fixing the bike. It was pretty frustrating. I felt like a rode really well, and I thought I had enough for the podium.”

Adding to Hancock’s full card of racing this weekend, he competed in both the WORCS X and the regular WORCS Side by Side races, finishing seventh and eighth, respectively.

Unfortunately, Jeff Hancock was missing from competition this weekend after coming down sick before the event, which landed him in the hospital. On a positive note, he was released from the Hospital on Monday, and he should be ready for the Vegas to Reno race in two weeks.

Round eight of the 2015 WORCS series is scheduled for September 26-27th at Glen Helen in California, where Matt Hancock will be going for the win.
