Ryan Beat goes Back 2 Back in SR1 at Glen Helen
ROUND 9 - Saturday
UTV - By Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series
The action now moved to the full-length track as the UTVs emerged on track. With both the SR1 and Unlimited UTV classes again running together, it looked like it would be a great race between the two classes, as each had a representative starting from row one. Ryan Beat's #851 Hart and Huntington/Black Rhino SR1 grabbed the lead over RJ Anderson's Unlimited, with Corry Weller and Code Rahders also slotting in ahead of Anderson, while Dan Kelly was just behind in fifth. Kelly moved past Anderson on lap two, and shortly afterwards, a left front suspension failure on Weller's machine forced her to the sidelines. Rahders had nowhere to go when Weller broke, and he got hooked his UTV hooked onto Weller for long enough to drop him all the way down to last place. This all meant that while Beat still led, it was now Kelly in second, Anderson third, Doug Mittag fourth, and John Dempsey fifth. On the restart lap, Mittag was forced to pull off with a mechanical issue, moving Rahders to fourth, with Dempsey still fifth. Rahders then picked up another spot as he took over third, and from there on in, the top five spots remained unchanged. Standing on the podium, Beat said that he'd lost the motor on the final lap and was forced to "putt" to the finish line, but he was still good enough to grab the SR1 and overall wins. Second in SR1 and overall was Kelly in the #824 OffRoadMagnet.com/Xtreme Machine and Fabrication Yamaha, ahead of Rahders in the #816 K&N/Black Rhino Yamaha, who was third overall and third in SR1. Anderson got the Unlimited UTV win in his #637 Walker Evans Racing/South Point Polaris, finishing ahead of the #694 Deviate Films/Magnum Off Road Kawasaki of Tyler Winbury, and the #664 Monster Energy/Muzzys Kawasaki of Robert Vanbeekum.

Round 10 - Sunday
UTV - By Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series
The SR1 and Unlimited UTVs took to the track next, and it was RJ Anderson who led the field in his #637 Walker Evans Racing/Kroyer Racing Engines Polaris after the first lap. Ryan Beat was already second after starting sixth in his #851 Hart and Huntington/Black Rhino SR1, with Code Rahders third in the #816 SuperChips/Black Rhino Yamaha, John Dempsey fourth in the #855 Monster Energy/FineLineTShirts.com Kawasaki, and Tyler Winbury fifth in the #694 Magnum Off Road/Deviate Films Kawasaki. The greater power of the SR1 engines helped propel Beat into the lead on lap two, with Rahders following suit and moving into second on the next lap. Further back, Dan Kelly had moved into the top five overall in his #824 OffRoadMagnet.com/Maxxis Tires, and was up to fourth by lap four. Up at the head of the field, Rahders was now putting the pressure on Beat for the lead, and got by on the outside at turn four to move up to first on lap five. On the next lap, Kelly moved up again, taking over third overall from Anderson. At the competition yellow, though, Kelly had gone off the track briefly, dropping him well down the running order. Meanwhile, Rahders had the lead, and was followed by Beat, Dempsey, Anderson, and Robert Vanbeekum in the #664 Monster Energy/Muzzys Kawasaki. After the restart, Beat re-took the lead from Rahders, with Vanbeekum charging up to third. Corry Weller was also moving up, and was now fourth in her #810 Tilted Kilt/Magnaflow Yamaha. Two laps later, Vanbeekum rolled to a stop in turn five, moving Weller to third, Dempsey to fourth, and Anderson to fifth. Dempsey then dropped by the wayside on the penultimate lap, and at race's end, it was Beat who swept the weekend with his second win in as many nights. Beat got the SR1 and overall wins, with Rahders and Weller second and third in SR1 and overall. Fourth overall, and tops in Unlimited UTV was Anderson, Chad George taking second in the class in his #1 Monster Energy/Funco Kawasaki, and third going Winbury.
