Lynden, WA (1/27/2017) -
Holz Racing was again the car builder
of record for some of the top drivers in the
WORCS off road racing series as the tour kicked
off SXS racing in Primm, NV. Cody Bradbury,
Beau Baron and Randy Romo all had spectacular
results in the doubleheader SXS World Finals.

Holz, as usual, had a busy off-season building
and preparing Polaris RZRs for the top teams
in off-road racing. Holz unique approach starts
with a kit and then racers can add performance
parts from their sponsors to the package.

“I’m really excited about this season and
for Cody Bradbury coming on board this year,”
said Mark Holz. “He had one of our kits last
year for his turbo car. So he has two of our
new cars. Randy Romo has two of our cars.
Austin Flowers will be at Taft with one of
our cars. Josh Frederick is driving one of
our “house cars” in Pro Stock with hand controls
in it. We have a lot new guys and a lot of
new cars, so it should be an exciting season.”
The event was run over two days with two
distinct races. Saturday’s contest was run
over a Lucas Oil style short course, while
Sunday’s event was held on a traditional WORCS
off road circuit. Changing weather conditions
forced a cancellation of qualifying on Friday
due to rain. Blue skies greeted the field
on Saturday, followed by a blast of cold temperatures
and winter precipitation on Sunday.

In the end, the Holz cars were the ones to
beat. With little time to test prior to the
weekend, Bradbury finished second in Saturday’s
race and then ran away with Sunday’s event
to record the overall victory driving in Pro
Production. Both of Bradbury’s cars were competitive
from the moment they hit the track.
“I was in my 2017 Polaris RZR Turbo and as
soon as the boost hit, I was four cars out
in front of everyone,” said Bradbury. “Holz
built both of our cars this year. The first
round always seems to be my Achilles heel.
So it’s nice to have the points lead going
into round two.”
Baron finished third in Pro Stock and sixth
in Pro Production. In Saturday’s Pro Stock
race, he drove from a 30th starting position
to finish eighth. He won Sunday’s Pro Stock
race.

“These Polaris RZRs are great,” said Baron
of his Holz-built cars. “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 and Holz Racing.”
Romo made his Pro Production debut this weekend,
finishing seventh overall, but scored a third-place
finish in Sunday’s race. It marked his first
Pro Production podium. Romo is also competing
in Pro Stock this season.

“I was hoping for a top ten in this class,
and to be on the podium is exciting,” said
Romo. “Two races in a row, I had to run with
no visor and my eyes took a beating. This
was a tough battle this weekend.”
Holz Racing cars will be back in action,
and likely at the top of the podium, when
the WORC series heads to Taft, CA February
17-19.
