OFF ROAD ROCKY MOUNTAIN MC WORLD OFF-ROAD CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES ROUND 4 / MARCH 27, 2016 CRAZY HORSE CAMPGROUND / LAKE HAVASU CITY, ARIZONA P90 STORY AND PHOTOGRAPHY BY HARLEN FOLEY F or all of the right reasons, Beta's Justin Wallis won't soon forget Spring Break 2016. That's because he cap- tured his first ever WORCS Pro- class victory at the spring break capital of the west coast, Lake Havasu City, Arizona. Wallis sur- vived—and won—what has always been one of the toughest races on the WORCS schedule but perhaps more importantly, the win, combined with his previous 9-4-9 finishes, moves him up to third place in the 2016 WORCS standings. He's now only one point behind previous-round winner Blayne Thompson (who finished sixth at Havasu) for sec- ond and trails leader Robby Bell (fourth at Havasu) by 19 points. Justin Jones and Travis Coy joined Wallis on the Havasu podium. Honda-mounted Jones nabbed second place late in the race, while Coy, on the RPM/ KTM, ended up third. Fourth went to defending champ Bell who came into the race recovering from the flu and was far from 100 percent. Rounding out the top five overall was former WORCS champ Gary Sutherlin who was making his first WORCS appearance of the year after an injury. WELCOME WALLIS
