Motorsports' Brian Willison proposed
to Laura Cole at the finish of the Women's
SXS race on Sunday |
Cole led the way with a win the SXS Women’s
class that was made even more special at the
finish line. At the finish, Willison’s friends
and family held a series of letters spelling
out “Laura Will you Marry Me?” and Cole accepted.
It marked Cole’s first win of the season,
which couldn’t have come at a better time.
“It was a total shock and I thought I was
trouble at first,” said Cole, who is now in
a numerical tie for first in points. “That’s
exactly when I saw the sign. I had no idea
he was going to propose today. Brian and I
had our first wins of the year this weekend
and we got engaged. It’s the best weekend
ever!”

ACE Motorsports' Brian Willison
& Laura Cole rebuilt their Polaris
RZRs over the WORCS Summer Break |
Cole was driving a newly rebuilt Polaris
RZR in the events. It featured Super ATV Rhino
2.0 axles and suspension components, a new
Bassani exhaust, Holz Racing Products kit,
and a new wrap by Gator Wraps. Cole also raced
the car in the Production Turbo 1000 race
to shake it down for the Women’s race.
“Super ATV came on board big time with all
new axles and suspension and I had no problems
on the rough course,” said Cole. “The Holz
cage and kit made a huge difference. Bassani
Exhaust also came on board this year ,and
I couldn’t be happier with the extra power.
It definitely paid off today.”
