DAT’s Kawasaki’s Robbie Mitchell 
                                was looking good as he came up from a mid pack 
                                start and mad the pass on Jarrod McClure in the 
                                final lap to round out the top five for the day. 
                                Jarrod McClure’s sixth place was enough 
                                to secure him seventh place in the points chase 
                                for this season.

                                      Bob's Jarrod McClure had his Yamaha YFZ450 
                                      brought out by Chris Borich since he couldn't 
                                      get his Honda repaired in time for the race, 
                                      and despite running a GNCC setup, he still 
                                      managed to secure a 6th place finish with 
                                      after a last lap pass by Kawasaki's Robbie 
                                      Mitchell to take the 5th spot |  “I’m going to be doing as many of 
                                the WORCS rounds as I can next season,” 
                                stated McClure, who is rumored to be sporting 
                                a new ride with some serious backing for the 2010 
                                GNCC season.

                                      Ryan Piplic was finally able to take it 
                                      to the checkered flag without any issues 
                                      to secure a 7th place finish | Can-Am's 
                                      Pro-Am ATV Class Champion, Dillon Zimmerman, 
                                      made an impressive Pro debut with a 8th 
                                      Place finish |  Washington State native Ryan Piplic came on strong 
                                for the final round taking home seventh place 
                                for the day and allowed him to move into the top 
                                ten in points. Can-Am Motoworks’ Dillon 
                                Zimmerman, who wrapped up the Pro-am Championship 
                                at the last round, made the jump to Pro for the 
                                final round of 2009 and claimed the number eight 
                                spot. John Shafe would hang on to take ninth and 
                                the new 2009 WORCS Champion, Beau Baron, would 
                                round out the top ten.

                                      Chris Borich got off to a top 5 start, and 
                                      he was on the move before he experienced 
                                      mechanical issues, which sent him to the 
                                      pits early, but he hopes to be back again 
                                      for some more races in 2010 | #783 
                                      Johnny Gallagher stopped to help fellow 
                                      Yamaha racer, Dustin Nelson, early in the 
                                      race when Nelson got stuck, which sent Gallagher 
                                      back several spots, but he held onto a 11th 
                                      place finish in his WORCS debut |  Several east coast riders made the trek out to 
                                Nevada for the season final, including Rockstar 
                                Makita Suzuki’s Chris Borich, who left the 
                                competition in the dust at round six. Unfortunately, 
                                this time Borich’s luck would not hold out 
                                as his engine let go just under 40 minutes into 
                                the race. GNCC racer, Yamaha’s Johnny Gallagher 
                                would fair better as he went on to finish in eleventh 
                                place, while Kawasaki mounted Keith Little would 
                                take twelfth, and Andy Lagzdins would finish in 
                                thirteenth after claiming the Best In the Desert 
                                ATV Expert Class Championship at Primm, Nevada 
                                the day before 2nd place finish with his Christy’s 
                                Racing Team.

                                      Keith Little was once again running in the 
                                      Top 5 before experiencing a fluke issue, 
                                      and this time it was a GT Thunder sprocket 
                                      guard that sent him to the pits | Duncan 
                                      Racing's Andy Lagzdins wrapped the Best 
                                      in the Desert Expert ATV class Championshp
