Cody Rahders wins Round 7 of the WORCS Production 700 class in his
UTVunderground.com/Cognito Motorsports/Polaris Industries RZR570.
With 27 racers total entered in the combined Production 700/850 race
Cody lined up tied in points but leading the points chase by virtue of
one more win than his competitor in second place. When the green flag
flew for his line he pulled the hole shot. At the first big uphill he
was briefly past by second place but by the end of the first lap he was
physically in 6th place overall and leading the Production 700 class by
5 seconds. As the race wore on Cody continued to pick off cars from the
850 class and by lap two he moved into 5th place overall. By lap 3 he
was in 4th and at the end of the 40 minute race he finished 1st overall
in the Production 700 class and 3rdoverall in the Production 700/850
classes combined. Cody now leads the championship points chase in the
Production 700 class by 8 going into the final round.
Cody then headed back to Glen Helen to compete in Rounds 9 & 10 of
LOORRS in his Superchips/K&N/Black Rhino SuperLite Championship race
truck and after qualifying second by .012 seconds the day before he was
lined up row two inside. At the start Cody and the leader checked out on
the field until lap eight where he suffered a blow out in the right
rear, his second of the weekend. After it was changed he reentered the
race one lap down in 12th place. At the restart Cody began working his
way up through the pack moving from 12th place to finish the night in
6th inches from the rear bumper of the race leader and nearly unlapping
himself.
After suffering flat tires at Glen Helen, Miller Motorsports Park,
Speed World, and Lake Elsinore Cody went looking for help and Toyo Tires
stepped up in a big way supplying him with a new set of tires for his
SuperLite.
For Sunday night Cody was again lined up inside row two and by lap four
had a commanding lead thanks to the new found traction with Toyo Tires,
one that he would stretch out to over 1 second by the midrace caution.
At the restart he again pulled away but with a late race wreck a
green/white/checker restart was in order. As the green flew he bicycled
the truck in turn two and went from first to fourth. He then managed to
get back into second on the white flag lap but at the top of turn four
ended up spinning out and finishing seventh for the night.
Toyo Tires! I could put the truck anywhere on the track and it would
stick. I had no idea a tire could work that good. Were so close, with
my new Toyo's and the new track in Reno its going to be so fun, I
cant wait!
Cody Rahders and R3motorsports would like to everyone for their help.
