Kevin Cunningham Wins 2014 MAXC Pro Class
Martinsville, IN (11/10/2014) - It all came down to the last and final round of the MAXC Racing Series to decide the 2014 MAXC Racing Pro ATV Champion. As an early winter storm rolled through the area the night before the big race, Mother Nature added yet another element to the already challenge track in Gosport, IN with a light snow shower that sprinkled the track.
The cold temperatures however did not detour Kevin Cunningham and Taylor Kiser from going head-to-head to take the checkered flag and the overall MAXC Pro ATV Championship.

Kevin Cunningham got off to a decent start, but quickly worked his way into the number one spot by the end of lap one. Cunningham then began to charge ahead and put sometime between himself and the rest of the pack leading all five laps to finish an impressive 3 minutes ahead of second place Cody Collier.
"We got off line in about 4th or 5th. I settled in and I put my head down and started charging up through the pack. I wanted to check out and that's what I did. I rode one of the best races I have ridden, and it was because all the determination to take home the title. We ended up winning by 3 minutes! I said to myself It's no second guesses, no mistakes, hammer down till the end and that's how the season ended with a championship" explained Kevin Cunningham of his first MAXC Racing Pro Career Championship.
Cody Collier also put in his best race of the season to finish second place. This young racer is one to keep your eyes on next year as he one of the youngest racers in the MAXC Racing Pro Class.
