finish handed him third in points in the SXS

In the Unlimited race, Bradbury climbed through
the field and was challenging for the lead
when he went off course. He flipped end over
end and was knocked unconscious before taking
a trip to the hospital.
“I didn’t get the best start, but I was able
to get past some people and move up behind
the leader,” said Bradbury. “I put a pass
on the leader and I ended up off in the bushes.
From there I went end over end. I was knocked
out for a few minutes. They took me to the
hospital, did a CT scan and everything came
back OK. I remember everything up until I
hit the second time. That was a hard hit and
it knocked me out. I woke up in the pits.
I have to give it up to Holz. He builds pretty
tough stuff. That was a gnarly hit and the
cage is still straight. To walk away with
no broken bones is nice.”
Bradbury arrived back at the race with just
15 minutes to spare for the start of the Pro
race. He finished sixth and nabbed third in
the championship with one victory and a runner-up
finish this season.

“I got back at 3:30 and the race started
at 3:45, so I put my shoes on over my hospital
socks,” said Bradbury. “I went out to stay
in the hunt for the podium in points. I got
third in points and I’m glad. The season was
good. We had a couple of things that happened
in the last couple rounds that kept me out
of the championship lead, but I made up some
ground this year and I learned a lot. I have
some more help so next year is going to be
quite a bit different than this year. I’ll
be back full time in WORCS, and I’m going
to dabble a little bit in Best in the Desert.”
Linkon Leaverton finished fifth in the SXS
700 Youth Production after he had a mechanical
issue while leading. Leaverton clinched the
championship with seven wins on the season.

“The Arctic Cat was working great,” said
Leaverton. “I got second in adult 700 and
won the championship. I had a lot of fun in
the Arctic Cat this year.”
Team Bradco will return to WORCS competition
next season. The first race is scheduled for
January 20-22 in Primm, NV.
