Decatur, TX (10/13/2015) –
S3 Racing’s Cody Taylor is used to powering his
Polaris RZR through the woods in cross country
competition. He proved yet again he is a force
in motocross, as well at Oak Hill Raceway when
he won his third straight UTV Open limited title
at the Pro Challenge in Memory of Caleb Moore.
Justin McCoy finished a close second, followed
by Shawn Hess. Cross and Curtis Kirchmeier completed
the top five.

Taylor proved “31 Style” was the motto of the
weekend as he notched his third consecutive first-place
finish. He grabbed the holeshot at the start and
checked out from the field. Caleb Moore’s number
was 31.

Cody Taylor grabbed the holeshot
once again & quickly built a commanding
lead over the competition in the short 7
lap long race |
“I’ve been waiting on this race all year,” said
Taylor. “We had a good qualifying run and got
a good gate pick. We took the holeshot and led
the whole race. There were a lot of guys out there
flipping end over end, which gave guys a chance
to catch up. I played it safe and ran the whole
race like I was out there by myself. I hope this
event continues next year because I will be back.”
Taylor regularly competes in cross country UTV
competition. He enjoyed running the shorter motocross
course in the seven-lap race.

Racing's Cody Taylor went on to claim his
third straight Pro Challenge UTV win |
“This short course is fun for us,” said Taylor.
“It takes all of the guesswork out of picking
lines and I can concentrate on driving. Traction
isn’t a problem because the track is tacky and
prepped and I like the jumps, too. I love jumping
my RZR. These cars are great on this soggy short
course. The main thing is the track was prepped
well. The guys put in a lot of work, watering
and grooming the track.”
McCoy hooked onto Taylor’s rear bumper at the
start and was never seriously challenged in taking
the runner-up slot. “This is awesome,” said McCoy.
“We had a lot of fun this weekend. I came out
second and I just kept pushing. I never looked
back and I just went.”
