Can-Am
Team with their DS450 ATV |
Ontario, CA (9/4/2007) -
Well, that didn’t take long. In
its very first Pro ATV event, the new
Can-Am DS450 found its way to the top
of the podium. It had some help, of course,
in the form of Josh Frederick and Team
Epic, the runaway leaders of the 2007
World-Off-Road Championship Series.
This historic event took place at Olympia,
Washington, round seven of the series.
Frederick got the ball rolling with a
victory in the Open Pro division in perfect
racing conditions on Saturday of this
race weekend. Washington’s notoriously
wet weather came to bear on Sunday, however,
making the course a treacherous, muddy
mess. But the winner was the same, as
Frederick and his Can-Am worked past early
leader Doug Eichner at the one-hour mark
and then steadily built a winning margin.
Eichner and his Duncan Racing-backed Polaris
held on for second, while the other Epic
Racing Can-Am of Jeremy Schell rounded
out the podium.
A great deal of help came from the winner’s
choice of tires, too. Frederick once again
chose ITP Holeshot GNCC tires front and
rear, as he has done all year —
taking six wins and a second place finish
in the process. Frederick now enjoys a
huge points lead in the series with four
events remaining on the schedule. Fellow
Holeshot GNCC riders Eichner and Schell
are a comfortable 2-3 in the series to
date.
