Mark Holz and Matt Parks Pilot Holz Racing RZR to Victory in Nevada

Holz Racing topped the field in the grueling Best in the Desert Series during the Terrible Town 250 in Primm, Nevada, April 18, 2009, adding cross-country durability to the already long list of Holz Racing Products attributes.

To date the 2009 Holz Racing Polaris RZR had already proven itself on the short track World Off-Road Championship Series (WORCS) races, winning two of three events. But with 73 miles of untamed desert looming on the horizon, owner Mark Holz teamed up with Matt Parks and stretched the legs of the Kroyer Racing Engine powered RZR in the Best of the Desert UTV class.

Fourteen competitors comprised the UTV class at the start of the Terrible Town race with only 11 cars making it to the checkered. Faced with uncharted desert, dry creek beds and rock-strewn climbs, the Maxxis tires outfitted Holz RZR averaged just over 39 miles-per-hour, finishing the race in just over 1 hour, 52 minutes.

“The race was a good change of pace for us,” said Mark Holz. “A longer race is great for more extensive durability testing of our performance parts and to evaluate different calibration ideas we have in mind for our Fox shock package.”

The Best in the Desert Series plays host to world-class off-road racing events throughout the southwestern United States. Last year, more than 4,000 racers competed in various Best in the Desert race events, conquering some of the most unpredictable and challenging desert terrain in North America.

The next race for Holz racing is the May 1-3 World Off-Road Championship Series (WORCS) in Milford, California.

Can-Am Finishes Strong At Last Weekend’s AMA and GNCC ATV Races

Riders on Can-Am™ ATVs had much success last weekend in both the GNCC race series and at the AMA ATV Motocross race.

With an off weekend coming up, they look to build on that success for the next rounds of ATV racing.

At the Loretta Lynn GNCC near Hurricane Mills, TN, Team Warnert Racing / Can-Am rider Bryan Buckhannon dominated the 4×4 Open class on his Can-Am Outlander™ 800R EFI ATV finishing six minutes ahead of second place.

His teammate Michael Swift, also aboard an Outlander 800R, took first place in the 4×4 Limited class.

That weekend also saw BRP riders place three DS 450™ EFI ATVs in the top ten of the Pro class at the AMA ATV Motocross National near Danville, VA.

Team Warnert Racing / Can-Am racers John Natalie and Cody Miller took fourth and fifth respectively, while Team Motoworks / Can-Am racer Jeremy Lawson took eighth overall.

In the amateur classes, Cole Henry took the Four-Stroke A class win on his DS 450, while Angela Adkins took first place in the Women’s class. Adkins was also riding a DS 450.

“Our racers continue to be extremely successful on Can-Am ATVs and are getting a lot of seat time this weekend to prep for upcoming races,” says Delton Bohlman, Racing Manager for Can-Am ATVs at BRP.

“We look forward to seeing amateur racers like Cole Henry and Angela Adkins continue to have more success on the DS 450 like they did in Virginia; it really shows our Amateur racing support program is working excellent.”

Other racing highlights from the Loretta Lynn GNCC included Warnert / Can-Am racer Cliff Beasley easily winning the 4×4 Lites class on his Outlander 500 EFI ATV. In the 4×4 Limited class, Outlander ATVs swept the top three spots, and comprised seven of the 11 ATVs entered in the class.

The next GNCC race will be Titan GNCC near Lafayette, TN on May 2. The next AMA ATV Motocross is near Walnut, IL on May 2-3.
