DeMartile Tops Cedar City WORCS
T
he Rocky Mountain ATV/MC
WORCS Series headed to
Cedar Beach Oasis in Cedar City,
Utah, May 18-19, for a challeng-
ing and fast course. Dare DeMar-
tile put his Beta USA 450 RX on
the podium's top spot for the
second time this season to con-
tinue his strong and consistent
performance. Mason Semmens
let the good times roll, as he
won again on his RPM Racing-
backed KTM 250, and Racer Fry
fought for his first Pro-Am win of
the season with an impressive
victory on his Purvines Racing
Yamaha.
On Saturday, Kaitlyn Jacobs
extended her points lead in the
Women's Pro class.
The racers were greeted with
quite the Pro section on Sunday,
as they had to traverse through
and over rocks, tires, a matrix of
logs and even a balance beam
above an untouched section of
dirt and rocks.
Justin Hoeft flew off the line
with the holeshot before heading
into the fast, windy, tree-filled
course. As the pack barreled into
the Pro section, they came in
almost four-wide, with DeMartile
the first over the tire section.
Hoeft and Tyler Lynn used the
logs to jump over the balance-
beam section as they shot in
front of DeMartile on the first
lap. The most challenging part of
the course was easily the matrix
of logs—all at different lengths—
in between, giving a level of dif
-
ficulty that played a pivotal role
during this race.
Lynn used every bit of power
on his SLR Honda 450 machine
as he cemented himself early
in the race as the man to beat,
capturing a close to 30-sec-
ond lead over the competition.
DeMartile was in second place
as Hoeft fell back to third, still re-
covering after a crash the week
before. Lynn found the fast line
