Alamo, NV (5/7/2015) - Pro Motorsports’ Jeff and Matt Hancock conquered the 2015 BITD Silver State 300 and won the Pro Quad class with CT Racing’s Danny Prather and David Scott finishing second followed by Trent Kendall and Conrad Funk Team rounding out the top three in the BITD Pro Quad class.

It was one of the closest races of the BITD racing season in the Pro Quad class between the Hancock brothers and the team of Danny Prather and David Scott. The two teams have been close all season, but this time it came down to wire to determine the winner with the pair just separated by over a minute at the finish line.

It was a perfect weekend for racing with moderate temperatures and an occasional breeze to help with the dust. The first Pro Quad racers left the starting line before sunrise shortly after the first motorcycle left the line at 5:30AM.

Matt Hancock was first up for the Pro Motorsports team. “We started first and that was huge because there was a lot of dust, and it was very tough to see, especially with the sun coming up. A lot of us were riding one handed trying to block the sun, so we could see,” explained Matt Hancock, who rode until the second pit stop before handing the quad off to his brother, Jeff Hancock.

Jeff Hancock put in a hard charge through the dusty conditions and even gained a bit of time on the motorcycles. “We had the lead we wanted, but the motorcycles were ahead of us, and we had to deal with their dust,” said Jeff Hancock.
