Guthrie, OK (10/8/2007) -
KTM’s Tim Farr added to his already impressive
year with another win, this time at the first-ever
ATV EnduroCross!
The ATV EnduroCross took place on Sunday October
7th at the Lazy-E Arena, the day after the second
round of the Endurocross series. Saturday’s
track was modified to better accommodate for
ATV’s; most notably it was wider than
the previous night when only motorcycles were
allowed on the course.
ATV racers were excited to try this new event
and were eager to see how challenging the course
would be. Farr stated, “The course was
fun, but challenging. The rock section stalled
most people, including myself.” The majority
of riders agreed that the rock section proved
to be the most difficult obstacle of the night
as it was hard to find a good line through the
rocks especially if someone else was already
stuck there.
Farr faired well throughout the entire day.
His streak began when he won his qualifier.
He then turned over the best qualifying lap
time giving him first gate pick for the main.
In the main, it was Farr who came around the
first corner grabbing the holeshot. By the end
of the first lap he already had a five second
lead!
“The toughest part of the main was getting
around the lappers,” Farr reported. “The
track was one-lined and when a lapper had that
line, it was hard to find a route around them.”
Despite the lapped traffic, he found a way through
and maneuvered safely around the course to take
home the win with a 20 second lead over second
place.
“I had a lot of fun today, my KTM 450XC
Sport ATV was running great, so all I had to
do was ride safe and keep a good controlled
pace.” Farr is on his way to proving himself
as one of the most versatile Pro ATV riders
on the scene as he has already secured a Supermoto
and Dirt Track championship title this year.
Farr and his KTM machine have proved to be quite
the winning match, and the year’s not
done yet!
