DeMartile Masters Marysville WORCS
T
he followers of the WORCS
Championship packed their
gearbags and headed to E-Street
MX in Marysville, California, for
the third installment of the Rocky
Mountain ATV/MC WORCS
Series, February 24-25. Beautiful
weather and a new track to the
series brought fresh air to the
racing scene with some excel
-
lent racing. A seven-mile course
with terrain ranging from single
track through trees to riding on
top of river rock and a pristine
MX track.
Beta Racing's Dare DeMartile
took the win at what he calls his
hometown race, with friends and
family all showing up in support.
Mason Semmens brought home
another win in Pro 250, with
Jackson Glathar regaining the
top spot in Pro-Am.
Ten riders lined up for the
450cc Pro race, with some local
talent coming out to compete
against the best in the WORCS
Championship. DeMartile show
-
cased how comfortable he felt
at home, as he shot out of the
gate early, grabbed the holeshot
and never looked back. He set
the fastest lap time of the day
on his Beta on lap two with a
blistering time that was seven
seconds quicker than anyone
else on the track. He maintained
that pace for most of the race,
allowing himself to build a lead
that extended to 30 seconds at
one point.
SLR Honda rider Cole Martinez
returned to WORCS racing and
made it count, as he settled in
behind DeMartile early and kept
that position from start to finish.
Right behind them, Jus
-
tin Hoeft and Trevor Stewart
battled for third. Stewart, on the
Purvines Racing Yamaha, was
in third after making a pass on
Tyler Lynn during the second lap
and kept that for the first half of
the race.
