Anaheim, Calif. – February 14, 2012 – GBC
Motorsports’ Pro-Am rider Dylan Dixon finished
7th in Round 2 of the WORCS ATV series at
Buffalo Bills in Primm, Nevada yesterday.
Coming off of a 5th place showing in the
opening round at a soggy Glen Helen, GBC Pro-Am
racer Dylan Dixon took his GBC Race Rex tires to
the deserts of Nevada for Round 2 of the WORCS
ATV action. Despite some brutally tough track
conditions and some high winds kicking up some
dust, Dixon managed to finish in 7th place after
a tough day of racing.
The race began with a dead-engine start which
proved challenging for Dixon, who got off to a
slow start. Nevertheless he managed to improve
his early 12th place position up to 8th by the
end of the first lap. By the end of Lap 2, Dixon
had worked his way into 6th and was charging on
the 5th place rider as things took a turn for
the worse.
As Dylan exited the pit section of the track
he high-sided and went down. By the time he got
back on his quad and going again he had dropped
back to 18th. Throughout the remaining laps,
however, Dixon continued to fight his way
towards the front and never gave up on the race,
making a last-second move into 7th just before
the checkered flag.
GBC’s Dylan Dixon sits in 3rd place in the
points standings after two rounds of racing,
with Round 3 slated for March 16-18 at Crazy
Horse in Lake Havasu City, Arizona.
The Primm round of WORCS ATV racing was also
a special occasion, as the Eichner Family
Fundraiser was onsite to help raise money for
ATV legend Doug Eichner’s family, whose wife
Joan is battling cancer. In addition to selling
special t-shirts and accepting donations, the
group auctioned off some donated equipment
including autographed jerseys from various
racers, a set of X-Rex tires from GBC, and a
Polaris ATV.
