“All day the Polaris turbo worked awesome,”
said Romo. “We had no flats, no axle problems,
no diff problems…it just ran great. This is
my second podium. The first one was a third
and this one is a first. Hopefully we can
keep up this momentum.”
Romo has been fast all season. He finished
third in the second round of competition,
the SXS World Finals in Nevada. He hopes to
add another podium to his resume during the
last three WORCS races.
“This is huge for me,” said Romo. “We’ve
had a few bugs to work out with the turbos,
but we worked hard and got them fixed.”
In Pro Stock, Baron fought dusty conditions
during the race, but ran a consistent pace.
When the leader fell out with electrical issues,
Baron sprung into action, taking the lead
and the victory, his third this season. The
win, combined with a 17th-place finish by
the points leader, puts Baron just five points
out of the championship lead with three races
left this season.

Racing's Beau Baron scored the WORCS
Pro Stock SXS Win at Iron Mine WORCS |
“You have a few tough races, you shrug your
shoulders and then, all of the sudden, you
win a race and gets you back in your groove,”
said Baron. “I’ve been second all along in
this points chase and I gained quite a few
points. We’ll take this with a grain of salt,
keep pushing and hopefully we can come out
with a championship at the end of the year.”
Bradbury had to work for his best Pro Stock
finish of the season. After starting last,
Bradbury had to navigate his way through the
field in the dust. He took second on the last
lap and cruised to the finish from there.
The second-place finish puts him third in
points, just 14 behind Baron.

Racing's Cody Bradbury finished 2nd
in the Pro Stock SXS Class |
“The dust wasn’t super fun today,” said Bradbury.
“I just tried to keep my car together so I
could charge toward the end. Beau had a good
lead and I got Nic on the last lap. It’s good
to come back with a second. I love this place.
You have to push, but you also have to be
smart in the dust.”
Holz Polaris RZRs will be back in action
as WORCS next heads to Glen Helen Raceway
in Devore, CA June 16-18.
