2013 WORCS Racing Round #7 - Glen Helen August 11, 2013 Devore, California

Robbie Mitchell grabbed the holeshot on his Honda and got away with the early lead. He fell into second midway through lap one. He dropped to fourth on lap two and then his chain came off on lap three. The incident caused him to drop to eighth, but Mitchell rode hard all the way to the finish to salvage points, which currently has him top five in points.

“My Lindsay Powersports motor was awesome and got me off the line quick. My DWT Tires really hooked up and I was pumped to get the holeshot. I was bummed when my chain came off; I felt really good and had a lot of momentum going. I hope I can carry that to the next round,” regarded Mitchell after the race

In the Pro-Am class, Maxxis’ Grant Mitchell secured his second straight win. Pro Motorsports’ David Flores grabbed the holeshot, but Mitchell made the pass for the lead before the end of lap one. Flores challenged Mitchell several times during the race for the lead, but Mitchell was able to hold on to claim the win, which now has him leading the pro-am points over Bryce Peart who finished in tenth.

The Pro Motorsports’ team secured two spot on the podium with David Flores finishing in the second spot followed by Chandler Waxman, which now has Flores and Waxman tied for the third spot in the pro-am points battle, and the pair is now less than five points behind Bryce Peart, which will make for an exciting battle for points in the final two rounds of the season.
