season third in Pro Stock points |
The unique doubleheader event was held over two
days on two different racing circuits. Saturday’s
race featured a short course event on the Lucas
Oil track, while Sunday’s race was a traditional
WORCS off road race. The finishes were combined
for an overall result. Weather conditions covered
three full seasons with rain canceling qualifying
on Friday, beautiful blue skies on Saturday and
winter weather with sleet and rain on Sunday.
With qualifying rained out, Baron drew a 30th
starting position for the Pro Stock short course
race. Amazingly, he drove through the field to
finish eighth. Baron won Sunday’s race and thus
finished third overall.

in the Pro Stock class, despite starting
30th |
“I finished eighth after starting 30th in the
short course race, so that gave me a good gate
pick for Sunday’s race,” said Baron. “Overall,
I had a better day on Sunday and it’s great to
pull off a podium. I’m not where I want to be
in points, but it sure beats a DNF.”
Baron contended with mud, frigid weather, and
overall awful conditions on Sunday to win the
race on adjusted time. He toughed it out and scored
the race victory.

“The conditions were rough today,” said Baron.
“My eyesight is still blurry from having to toss
goggles two laps in. It was a test, for sure.
My hands were frozen and it was a tough deal today.”
Baron was happy to have his trusty Polaris RZR
under him. Despite the conditions, his SXS held
up to whatever he threw at it.
“The Polaris RZRs are great,” said Baron. “There
is absolutely nothing done to my engines on both
of them. I won a race in a completely stock car
so that’s a testament to Polaris.”
Baron will return to SXS competition when the
series heads to Honolulu Hills Raceway in Taft,
CA February 17-19. He will also race in the WORCS
ATV race January 27-29, also being held in Primm,
NV.
