Union, SC (4/15/2015) - Round two
of the six-race Side-by-Side Championship took place
on
Saturday in Union, South Carolina, where
the Polaris / Coastal / CST / Yokley Racing team
saw its first victory of the season in the XC2 Pro
Sport class. Team Driver John Henry put his Polaris
RZR S 900 into the center of the podium
at the Big Buck GNCC, while XC1 Pro Team Drivers
Scott Kiger and William Yokley experienced a challenging
day of racing at the second round.
With mild temperatures and plenty of sunshine,
the Big Buck GNCC saw the most favorable race
conditions of the season. In the XC2 Pro Sport
division, John Henry and his son / passenger grabbed
the holeshot from Row 10 aboard the PolarisRZR
S 900, checking in with second place on the opening
lap. At the halfway point, Henry had pushed his
way into the lead where he maintained that position
through the checkered flag.
“We had a great car, I can’t thank Coastal and Polaris enough for providing us with that opportunity,” Henry said. “We shot out of the hole way ahead of everyone but we knew we were going to have to work. Passing opportunities were extremely difficult, so to pull off what we did out there was pretty special.”
After two rounds, John Henry sits in the sixth place position in the XC2 Pro Sport championship standings.

Following a tough opening round for the team, drivers Scott Kiger and William Yokley were eager to go as the green flag dropped in South Carolina. Kiger and his passenger Tyler King shot out to grab the fifth-row holeshot aboard his PolarisRZR XP 1000, with William Yokley and his wife/passenger Tina powering their Polaris RZR S 900 close behind in second.
Kiger and Yokley led the pack into the woods on the opening lap and that’s when things began to go downhill for Yokley. The Big Buck course, known for its rough and tumble terrain, caused an unfortunate mechanical issue that kept the Yokley duo sidelined for the rest of the race.

“It’s been a challenging start to the season but I can’t say enough about this car and all the great products and sponsors we’ve got behind us,” Yokley said. “There’s no doubt that we have the best machine out there and we’re looking forward to putting some points on the board next round.”
About two laps into the four-lap race, Kiger experienced some issues causing him to lose a substantial amount of time and positions. Kiger ultimately salvaged a 20th place position to earn one point toward the championship chase.
