Can-Am/Motoworks’ Jeremie Warnia was in attendance
for the final round of the 2010 WORCS season and
was looking incredibly fast as he grabbed the holeshot
and took a huge lead. In lap two, Warnia laid down
the fastest lap time of the race with a time of
08:12.618, which was eight seconds faster than anyone
else on the track.
Warnia led for six laps before he would fall
back to the number two spot, where he would stay
until reaching the checkered flag. “I had
a good time today and I am happy for Josh winning
the championship!” said Warnia.

Dustin Nelson claimed his 5th podium finish
of the season with a 3rd place finish at
Mesquite MX |
Yamaha’s Dustin Nelson was looking good
as he charged off the start in second place. Nelson
looked smooth and consistent as he was able to
hold off a hard charge from Josh Frederick for
two laps before falling back to third. Nelson
rode the rest of the race unchallenged and held
the number three spot for twelve laps before reaching
the finish line and claiming the final spot on
the Pro podium. After some bad luck earlier in
the season, Nelson’s strong performance
and determination, put him in fourth place in
the Pro points chase.

Row secure the 4th spot, which was enough
to edge out Dustin Nelson for 3rd Overall
in Points |
MCR/Maxxis Tire’s Josh Row ran another strong
and consistent race as he came off the line and
took the number five spot going into the first lap.
In the second lap, Row would get by teammate Beau
Baron and take over fourth place.
Row held his position and took it all the way to
the finish line to end his day in fourth place.
Row, who was in a points battle with Dustin Nelson,
came out on top as his consistency throughout the
season allowed him to take third overall in the
Pro points championship.
MCR/Maxxis Tire’s David Haagsma, who wrapped
up the Pro-am Championship back in round seven,
gave the Pro class another shot after a disappointing
debut at round eight where the intense heat got
the best of him. At the final round however, Haagsma
rode a solid race.

| The
2010 WORCS Pro-Am Champion, MCR's Davi Haagsma,
was a real team player at Mesquite MX as
he slowed it down and rode along side Beau
Baron limping his quad back to the pits
in th sixth lap, but afterwards, Haagsma
got back on the gas to secure a Top 5 finish
in his first complete Pro race |
The rookie pro started off in sixth place and
had dropped back to eighth at one point, but he
was determined to make it known he has what it
takes and worked his way back into fifth place
after battling it out with Can-Am/Motoworks’
Dillon Zimmerman, and would round out the top
five as he reached the checkered flag.
