RANGER RZR Continues to Do-It-All on the Racing
Scene
Side-by-Side captures King of the Hammers and
podiums at WORCS
Minneapolis, March 4, 2009 – The RANGER RZR
added a few more notches to its belt taking
first and second in the King of the Hammers
Side-by-Side race and topping the UTV Class at
WORCS Round 2, in Adelanto, Calif. The
Side-by-Side continues to show its versatility
and durability in any racing terrain.
Mitch Guthrie took the King of the Hammers
Side-by-Side race, at Johnson Valley OHV Area,
in his modified RANGER RZR with Polaris Racers,
Jagged X, taking second. The King of the Hammers
was a 48-mile race that combined the technical
aspects of rock crawling with the challenges of
desert racing.
Mark Holz and his RANGER RZR got the holeshot
and never looked back winning WORCS Round 2, at
Race Town 395 raceway, in Adelanto, Calif. The
RANGER RZR ate up the course, which was a
combination of motocross and desert, showing it
can conquer anything thrown at it. WORCS
Defending Side-by-Side champion Doug Eichner,
took third overall with his RANGER RZR S. The
next WORCS UTV race is March 27-29, in Lake
