RANGER RZR 4, piloted by Polaris Regional Sales Manager Matt Parks, took first place both days and first overall, in the Pro UTV Class, at the Best In The Desert, Blue Water Desert Challenge this past weekend, in Parker, Arizona.
The Holz-built RANGER RZR 4, nicknamed the “Baja Bobsled,” worked flawlessly and was victorious over 18 other UTVs, one of the largest UTV entries in premier desert racing in some time. Parks and co-pilot Polaris District Sales Manager Bryce Wernsman endured limited visibility from dust and unbelievably deep silt areas on the track that the RANGER RZR 4 hammered through with no problem.
“This was our first race for the newly-built race RANGER RZR 4,” said Parks. “The car ran great both days and it was really fast, particularly in the rough. It was a great weekend and a fantastic outcome.”
The race RANGER RZR 4 was made possible by Walker Evans Racing, Holz Racing Products, Maxxis Tires (zero flats), Mastercraft Safety, Kroyer Racing Engines, Utendorfer Graphics, Muzzys, PURE Polaris Lubricants, the WWCBG, and was supported by the Baja Bobsled Chase Team (Bill Abshier of Valley Cycle Motorsports, Jason Spiess, Todd Douglass, and Danny Flowers).
