The second round of the RMURA racing series was held at CORE located just about an hour east of Denver. Heavy rain moved in during the week, which cancelled practiced on Friday, but the sun came out and the track came around by Saturday morning, which made for near perfect SxS / ATV racing condtions over the modified five mile course layout carved out of the 20-mile circuit known for its desert, motocross and technical sections.

After chasing after the leader several laps, Hughes inherited the lead when the leader pitted for fuel. “I just went out, had fun, and we were cruising. I just stayed with him, he pulled off and I took the lead. It was a great race. I had a lot of fun,” said Hughes.

“It was a good track,” added Hughes. “There was a little bit of everything: short track, motocross and desert. I’m looking forward to racing in the next round closer to home in Grand Junction”
