The premier division of Championship Off-Road Racing (CORR) is firmly under Beau Judge’s control after another exciting weekend of action at Firebird Motorsports Park. After climbing from sixth to second in Saturday’s Round 7 action, Judge found his way past Conner Maxwell immediately as the green flag dropped on Sunday and took his second win of the season in Round 8.
“Luckily, I just got a good jump on the start,” said Judge. “I’ve always been good on the light, so I was able to clear him going into Turn 1, and then I was just hitting my marks. It was starting to become a desert race out there—the ruts were getting so deep and the holes were getting big, so I was happy with my tire choice. Congrats to the other podium guys—we’re all 1-2-3 in points, and this is why.”
Judge’s top points rivals, Kyle Arkenau and Bryan McCormick, joined him on the podium. Arkenau followed Judge into second place on the first lap, but he’d be hotly pursued by Maxwell until Maxwell spun with just two laps to go. McCormick, meanwhile, jumped from sixth to third in the closing laps of the race to secure his third podium of the season.
The day started with a bang in the 170 Production class, with Saturday winner Greyson Gentry caught up in a first-lap tangle that would prevent him from going two for two on the weekend. The high attrition start to the day would see multiple leaders either wreck or pull off before Saturday runner-up Krayton O’Connor would secure his first win of the season. Gentry wouldn’t be the only driver to face that fate while pursuing a weekend sweep, as Timothy Jones had an incident of his own in the Sportsman race.
Others found redemption from bad luck earlier in the weekend. Carson Greco spun while leading Pro Am on Saturday, giving the win to Kash Hart, but there would be no repeat on Sunday as he took his sixth win of the season. Likewise, after giving up the Sportsman lead to Jones on Saturday on the final lap, Chris Leaming would hang on until the checkered flag on Sunday.
Ryder VanBeekum further extended his Pro NA points lead with his second win of the weekend and fourth of the season. Other weekend sweeps in the adult classes included Michael Burnstein in Pro Am Turbo, Calvin O’Dell in Sportsman Turbo, Johnny Holtger in Pro Lite, and Jason Weller in SR1 after a dramatic on Paul O’Brien in the final corner coming to the white flag.
“Yesterday the track was great, and today it was a lot more wet,” said Weller. “I had to chill out the first few laps, and once you start feeling the traction you can start figuring it out. Paul is really good—he doesn’t mess up, and it’s real hard to find a spot just to get him. I started setting him, up, and in that last turn he was taking different lines every time. Sure enough, he went wide, and I was right there.”
Youth drivers to win both races on the weekend included Gentry in 170 Limited, Murphy McKay in 250 Modified, and Addie Atteberry in 800 Open to extend her win streak in that class to seven races. Kyle Niner found his way back to the top of the box in Youth Production after finishing second on Saturday, while Ryder Greco earned the Youth Restricted win after running third in Round 7.
