Lynn Tops Glen Helen WORCS
T
he Rocky Mountain ATV/MC
WORCS Series returned to one
of off-road racing's most iconic
venues as competitors rolled
into Glen Helen Raceway in San
Bernardino, California, on June
20-21 for the final round before
the summer hiatus.
The race included a dedi-
cated Pro section that proved
to be both a passing zone and
a trap waiting to happen. Riders
dropped off a small K-rail into a
steep downhill before charging
through a rough, dusty section
behind the truck track. Multiple
line choices near the end of the
section allowed racers to attack
or defend before launching back
over the tires and K-rail to rejoin
the main course. After the dust
had settled over the weekend,
Tyler Lynn emerged as the Pro
450-class winner.

The Open Pro class saw home-
track favorite Dustyn Davis put
his Glen Helen experience to
good use. Davis steadily built his
lead throughout the seven-lap
race, posting the event's fastest
lap at 8:45.425 and taking the
overall victory. Jake Alvarez kept
the pressure on early, settling
into second, while Colton Aeck
rounded out the podium after
working his way up from fourth
on the opening lap.
In Vet Pro, off-road legend Ivan
Ramirez made his debut in the
Rocky Mountain ATV/MC WORCS
Series and immediately reminded
everyone why his name com-
mands such respect. Ramirez
controlled the race from the
outset and set the fastest lap at
9:01.907 en route to victory. Se-
ries regular Travis Damon entered
the weekend undefeated but had
to settle for second after pushing
Ramirez throughout the six-lap
contest. Nick Stover completed
the podium, while Hayden Florez
finished fourth.
The Women's Pro division
welcomed back Lauren Woods,
who was competing in the open-
