CST
Tires’ Beau Baron 8th WORCS Pro ATV Race
of the season |
The Adelanto track was setup in and around the
former baseball stadium. The SXS race utilized
a shorter track that comprised the infield and
outfield sections, as well as several deep sand
desert trails outside the confines of the field.
The ATV track was longer and also included log
sections and a water crossing.
In the Pro Stock SXS race, Baron needed merely
to finish 18th to clinch the title. He finished
sixth, and added to his statistics this year in
the class, which included three victories and
two additional podiums.

Tires’ Beau Baron Clinched the WORCS Pro
Stock SXS Class Championship at the season
finale |
“Two championships in two different disciplines,”
exclaimed Baron. “I didn’t want to break my car
and just get to the finish line to win a championship.
Nobody remembers what place you got, but everyone
remembers championships so that’s the most important
thing. I’ve lost championships in the last race,
so we played it safe and brought it home.”
Baron again ran Elka’s new 3.0 shocks here. Developed
with Baron and fellow competitor Matthew Hancock’s
help, the new suspension has proven itself. Combined
with his CST Tires and a new engine map from Sparks
Engine Performance, Baron was fast all weekend.
“This is a very big deal for Elka and I’m proud
of the effort that Elka, Beau and myself put in
this year,” said Doug Roll with Elka Suspension.
“It’s nice to be back working with Beau. We’ve
had a long-term relationship on the ATV side so
to carry it over to the UTV is very rewarding.”
In the Pro ATV race, Baron started third, and
then took second on the first lap. He took the
lead for good when the previous leader got stuck
in the water crossing. Baron literally dominated
Pro ATV competition this year, winning all but
two races, where he finished second.
“It’s a big deal to get two championships in
a season,” said Baron. “So much work goes into
my SXS stuff and I haven’t been training like
I should for my quad. But it’s working so we’ll
keep plugging away and doing what we do.”
Baron will return to WORCS competition to defend
both of his titles and look to add another. The
2018 season opener is scheduled for February 2-4
at The Orleans in Las Vegas.
