Valcourt, Canada (6/7/2007) - Chris
Borich took the holeshot and the win in the QuadTerrain
Challenge Pro Stock final at the Southwestern National.
After surrendering the lead momentarily on the first
lap, the Warnert Racing/Can-Am team member gained
it back and never saw another challenge to his position
out front. He worked his Can-Am Outlander 650 H.O.
EFI around the hilly and demanding course masterfully
even though it was his first time competing in the
event this season.
"When we signed Chris Borich
we were well familiar with his talent on a sport
ATV," said Bernard Guy, ATV marketing director
at BRP. "But now he definitely showed how versatile
he is by winning this race on an Outlander 650 ATV;
we are excited to see Borich at future rounds as
a member of Warnert Racing/Can-Am team."
Borich joined Scott Kilby, Chris Bithell,
Brady Foster and Adam Vaughn out of the Warnert
Racing/Can-Am semi at the third round of the WPSA
ATV Tour held at Cooperland Raceway near Stillwater,
Oklahoma.
Bithell, who was racing the QuadTerrain
Challenge for the first time, worked his way up
to second before getting tangled in the boulder
section of the course. After remounting his Outlander
ATV, he worked his way from last to tenth. For his
part, Kilby was leading the points championship
when going into the round. In the final, he finished
seventh aboard his Outlander 650 ATV after a strong
run.
The next round of the WPSA ATV Tour
heads to London, Ky., for the Blue Ridge Open Championship
June 16 and 17.
