The winner of the holeshot — the first person to the first corner at the start of a race — will have a big advantage in winning the Games’ inaugural Four Wheel Frenzy Saturday evening.

"The course is pretty tight," said five-time GNCC quad champion Bill Ballance of Smith Grove, Ky., after Thursday's practice sessions. "There are really just two spots on the track to pass. That will make it difficult."

The challenging track means the first ATV into the tight, right-handed chicane will earn a jump on the rest of the field.

"We wanted it that way," event organizer Tes Sewell said of the first corner. "We don't want everybody bunched up at the water jump."

The Games’ ATV track features tight hairpin turns, a man-made wooden jump over a pond, a rough section termed the "Bomb Field" and plenty of whoop-de-doos.

"That's the key," Kory Ellis of California says of the holeshot. "Anyone can win it, the field is so close. Like all races, you have to give it your best shot."

The lack of a long straight or a sweeping corner — the bikes will never be at full power — gives more technical riders a chance to make moves, says series rookie Giovanni Colon, who recently moved from Puerto Rico to Orlando to compete on the circuit full time. "I think that's a heavy factor,'' he said. "Those more technical on their quad will do extremely well.”

Four Wheel Frenzy finals begin Saturday at 8:30 p.m. at Disney’s Wide World of Sports Complex.
