Broughton snagged the holeshot and drove
uncontested to her seventh victory of the
season. She credited a new set of 29-inch
Big Horn Maxxis Tires, as well as Sparks tuning
for the victory.
“I really wanted this one and I did what
I needed to do,” said Broughton. “Maxxis gave
me some new tires. The traction hooked up
at the start, I took the holeshot and never
looked back. It started in Taft. Once the
Sparks engine came online it was all going.
Maxxis came on board and then I got KMC Wheels
at Havasu. It came together very nicely.”

Broughton started off the season slowly and
she knew she needed more power. She sent off
her engine to Sparks and literally took off
from there, winning five straight races beginning
in round two.
“It started in Primm and I just hit the rev
limiter and the car was too slow,” said Broughton.
“Then we sent the motor off to Sparks and
that’s when things started turning around.
The ladies are awesome people and are so much
fun to race with. It’s been a really good
season.”
She also thanked her parents for their support.
The WORCS Series has always been about family
and the Broughton family is all about racing.
“Without my parents, JR and Paula, this never
would have happened,” said Broughton. “It’s
surreal right now. Tomorrow it will sink in.
I’ve only been racing for three years. The
first two years, I was third. I’ve gone from
two thirds to a first. I’m coming back next
year.”
Broughton will return to defend her championship
next season. The WORCS Series kicks off its
2018 racing calendar February 2-4 at The Orleans
in Las Vegas.
