The two races were run in a two-moto format. In the first three motos, Heidler held third from start to finish. In the fourth moto, he battled from seventh to third at the finish. In the end, he finished third overall in both races.
“The track was fun,” said Heidler. “It had a couple of big jumps. The downhill section was extremely fast. It’s always fun at Glen Helen.”

Heidler got the most out of his Fox Racing Shocks. Cool and overcast conditions on Saturday made for fast racing, but the sun broke on Sunday, leading to dry conditions, which created setup challenges for many in the field, including Heidler.

Heidler will head to Glen Helen Raceway for Quad X round 3 on Feb. 13th |
“My car was pushing a lot throughout the weekend, and especially on Sunday,” said Heidler. “On Saturday it was overcast most of the day and they kept the track moist. Sunday morning, the sun popped out and the track dried up. I tried to make some adjustments between motos 1 and 2, and struggled with that. Everyone was in the same boat and all of us had problems with the cars pushing in the tight turns.”
Heidler will head back into Quad X competition on February 13 when the series again hits the high-flying Glen Helen Raceway for Round 3.
We’re sitting third in points and we’re looking forward to our next race at Glen Helen,” said Heidler. “We’re looking to step it up a couple of positions.”
