Re: UTVUnderground & Polaris Partner w/ Cognito Motosports / R3Motorsports -WORCS-RZR
SO, first race out here is the report from my standpoint.
RZR570 did not hole-shot the Rhino's like I thought it would... BUT - The 570 was on STOCK tires which stink in the mud, AND the whole program was to not get tangled up on the start, just get going. Once going, The 570 began to pick off its competitors in Production 700 one by one. With only a few laps to go the 570 was running in 3rd place and pulling on 2nd. Next time I saw the 570, it was a little ways further behind 2nd place, and while still locked in 3rd place noticed he had a de-beaded front tire... SUCKS!!!!! No bead locks, lots of mud, pushing with stock suspension = rolling a bead! So Code had to relinquish 3rd place but stil had enough to finish in 4th.
So, all that was done to the 570 thus far was a Cognito Motorsports cage, and doors/panels by Pro Armor! Thank you Pro Armor!!!! Other than that the entire UTV was stock! Stock motor, stock suspension, stock wheels and tires. The fact that it could run with these Rhinos with highly built engines and / or long travel suspension I am really impressed with this machine. Once the Long Travel kit is on, the Fox Shocks are tuned, and the new wheels and tires are on I have a feeling this RZR 570 is going to see the podium more than a few times!
Great work to the whole Polaris / Cognito Motorsports / UTVUnderground race team! Can't wait to see how it does at Primm!!
Code still managed to put in a time good enough for 6th in 850 and 19th in 1000, in the worst mud race I've ever been a part of. The RZR570 is bad ass, what a tough car, I am very impressed.
