2015 GBC Heartland Challenge SxS / UTV Endurance Racing Carlisle, Iowa August 21, 2015

Team RJ Performance's Matt Burton took home $2,000 from GBC for the UTV 900 Class Win

Team RJ Performance's Matt Burton won the 900 UTV Class: “We definitely had a blast. We were third at the start. There was a bottleneck and then I hit a tree. Then my four-wheel-drive went out and we spent a lap sorting that out. I want to thank the spectators that pushed me off the tree.”

Cross Kirchmeier along with his wife, Jess, who was his co-pilot finished first in the 800 Class: “This race was awesome. The track got so gnarly so fast. It went from smooth on the first lap to so rough on lap three you are almost getting stuck in the ruts. That made for a great challenge and the competition here made it really enjoyable.”
