ROBERT
FINISHES 'EM OFF
R
ed Bull KTM's Taylor Robert continued his domi-
nant run in the 2017 Rocky Mountain ATV-MC
WORCS Series, presented by Maxxis and Dirt
Bike, scoring his fourth consecutive victory during the
season finale at Adelanto Stadium. The win, however,
wasn't enough to prevent Gary Sutherlin, fifth on the day,
from wrapping up his second WORCS Championship.
The season-end race was held at Adelanto Stadium,
formerly the home of the Mavericks Minor League base-
ball team. The race facility was comprised of three differ-
ent circuits that were linked up, and featured a little bit of
everything from deep sand whoops to motocross-style
jumps to Endurocross log sections. And Robert had all
of them mastered.
Robert grabbed the lead in the first lap and never
looked back. He was never seriously challenged the
rest of the way, finishing off what was a perfect season
in WORCS, for him. He won every race he competed in.
Unfortunately an injury forced him to sit out four races
earlier in the championship and he was unable to over-
come such a deficit, despite winning the other six races.
Robert finished out the year fourth in the championship.
