Beau Judge Headlines 2025-26 CORR Champions With Pro SXS Win in Firebird Finale

Posted on | by Marketing Director

Beau Judge’s dominance of the premier class of Championship Off-Road Racing in 2025-26 came to its natural conclusion on Sunday, as he claimed the final Pro SXS win of the season at Firebird Motorsports Park. Already mathematically secure thanks to his charge from last to third on Saturday and an incoming 49-point lead, Judge made a mid-race pass on Saturday winner Conner Maxwell to earn his third win of the campaign and score a $2,500 champion’s bonus from series sponsor R-n-R Steel.

“It was a good run. I knew Conner and (Kyle) Arkenau were going to be good up there,” Judge said from the top step of the podium. “So I tried to hook to the back of Conner’s bumper as best as I could, made quick work of Arkenau, and just tried to apply the pressure. He was going so good that I had to wait for a mistake, and that’s what happened—he biked it and I was able to get by him, and after that I just kind of ran my own race.”

It was clear from before the first green flag even flew on Sunday that everyone would be going all-out to end the season on a high note. A pile-up on the 170 Production pace lap briefly delayed the start, although it wouldn’t prevent Greyson Gentry’s sweep of both the weekend and the title—a feat he would later replicate in 170 Limited as this season’s only dual-class champion.

Judge and Gentry were just two of the drivers who would sew up dominant championship campaigns with victories. Addie Atteberry would earn her ninth straight victory in 800 Open to seal the deal, while Paul O’Brien would earn the SR1 title in a thrilling head-to-head battle with Scott Webster. Johnny Holtger would outrun a $3,000 bounty on any Pro Lite driver who could beat him in the finale to go a perfect eight for eight; in fact, he’d still have won the title without the points Michael Funk scored substituting for him with a win and second place in the opening two rounds.

Others would cement their titles on lower steps of the podium. Third place was all it took for Elliott Brooke (250 Modified), Ryder Greco (Youth Restricted), and Timothy Jones (Sportsman) to claim their hardware; Brody Kline, Hayden Barler, and Liam Cadwell would take the race wins. Meanwhile, it’d be second place for two of the top Pro drivers, as Ryder VanBeekum would earn the other $2,500 R-n-R Steel champion’s bonus in Pro NA after coming home behind teammate Ryder Chapman, and Jeremy Spears would lock up the Pro Production title behind Rylen Lane, who swept the weekend.

The battle came down to the wire in Youth Production, where Tatum Foerster did everything he could with a win on Sunday, but Kyle Niner’s fourth place finish was enough to outscore him by just 11 points. Carson Greco and Michael Burnstein would earn the Pro Am and Pro Am Turbo titles, while Alex Ranuio and Troy Horak would take the race wins; Sportsman Turbo’s Matt Dyer and Youth SXS’ Mikey Childress would be the last drivers to pick up championship hardware on Sunday, although they each ran different classes for the finale.

If all that drama wasn’t enough, CORR organizers had one more card up their sleeve to end the season. More than a dozen parents of this year’s racers would step into their kids’ cars (for the most part) for an eight-lap showdown. It was in that race that Robert VanBeekum would finally return to the top of the box; running the Pro SXS that teammate Kyle Arkenau took to second place on Saturday, VanBeekum would start in the back with the other turbo entries, weave through traffic, miss the incidents, and get around all of the NA machines before the checkered flag.

“It was exciting, and it was harder than I expected to come from the back,” VanBeekum said after taking the win. “Trying to drive Kyle’s car was a handful. I don’t understand how he gets it around the track—it was not the same as ours. Ryder warned me before going in, he said ‘dad, this car doesn’t turn and it has no brakes,’ and he wasn’t lying!”

Podium finishers from CORR 2025-26 Round 7 at Firebird Motorsports Park were as follows:

Track Facts

Firebird Motorsports Park has been the most frequent host of CORR events, including the entirety of last season’s racing and four of this season’s events. The Arizona venue has undergone multiple reconfigurations since it was first built in 2008, with its current layout matching a high-flying frontstretch with a series of tight hairpins.

Racer Spotlight

It’s been a terrific Pro SXS season for points leader Beau Judge, whose breakthrough first win of the season last month at Glen Helen Raceway enabled him to extend his points lead to 34. He was joined on the Round 6 podium by Kyle Arkenau and Bryan McCormick, who finished in that order in the race but are in the opposite order in the standings. Arkenau’s hold on third is tenuous, though, as defending class champion Ryder VanBeekum, Round 1 winner Ryder Chapman, and Jeremiah Wagner are within seven points of him.

VanBeekum and Chapman’s double duty season also sees them running 1-2 in Pro NA points, split by just three after VanBeekum won Round 6 in Glen Helen. Jeremy Spears (Pro Production), Carson Greco (Pro Am), and Michael Burnstein (Pro Am Turbo) complete the Pro class points leaders.

Elsewhere, a handful of other SXS classes are seeing some tight points battles. 170 Production has been home to a thrilling battle between Krayton O’Connor and Greyson Gentry, who are just three points apart, and 170 Limited leader Stetson Wyman has Kaysen Stowell and Zeppelin Ledbetter tied for second just 10 points behind him. Timothy Jones leads the Sportsman field by just 13 points, and Paul O’Brien maintains the same gap over both Scott Webster and Brandon Kilgore in SR1 as all three drivers have won this season.

On the other hand, some drivers have been without comparison so far this season. Mikey Childress boasts a 79-point lead in Youth SXS, just one point larger of a lead than Elliott Brooke’s is in 250 Modified, while Matt Dyer is up by 50 points in Sportsman Turbo, Addie Atteberry’s five-race win streak has her ahead by 32 in 800 Open, and Johnny Holtger has a comfortable 31-point lead in Pro Lite.

However, the Youth set has two points races that could go either way. Ryder Greco’s Youth Restricted advantage sits at 17, while Kyle Niner remains up front by 22 in Youth Production thanks to wins in the first five races and a third-place finish in Round 6. Both drivers are four for four at Firebird so far this season; if they can go six for six, they may make it tough for anyone to catch them going into the finale.

Beau Judge Breaks Through at CORR Glen Helen, Extends Pro SXS Points Lead

Posted on | by Marketing Director

Championship Off-Road Racing (CORR) Pro SXS points leader Beau Judge finally scored his first win of the 2025-26 season on Sunday at Glen Helen Raceway. From the outside of the front row, Judge grabbed the lead from Saturday winner Augie Renezeder in turn one and never looked back.

“All we did was make a tire pressure adjustment (from Saturday), and the car was way better,” Judge said from the top step of the podium. “It’s amazing what five pounds of pressure will do in the rear. We’re just trying to move up slowly and not take too many bites of anything, but we’re super consistent and we’ve been on the podium every single round but one. I just knew that if I kept putting myself in the right position it would be a matter of time before I got the top spot.”

Judge had been on a tear to start the Pro SXS campaign, qualifying on pole in the opener at Firebird Motorsports Park, earning three podiums there, and taking his fourth of the season on Saturday after chasing Renezeder for most of the race. While he entered Sunday’s action with a 28-point advantage over Bryan McCormick, he was determined to add a win to the tally sooner than later.

When the green flag fell, Judge shot out to the front of the field, surviving two restarts with a hard-charging Renezeder hot on his tail. Shortly after the latter, Renezeder would suffer a mechanical failure that forced him to pull off track, yielding the pursuit to defending champion Ryder VanBeekum and Kyle Arkenau. But VanBeekum would suffer issues of his own in the closing laps, moving Arkenau up to second and giving third place to McCormick.

Youth racers kicked off the day with weekend sweeps in both 170 classes, with Greyson Gentry in Production and Kaysen Stowell in Limited, and the trend continued with wins for Addie Atteberry (800 Open), Tatum Foerster (Youth Production), Krew Hart (Youth Restricted), and Mikey Childress Jr. (Youth SXS). Of the young racers, only Elliott Brooke, who scored his third win of the season in 250 Modified, didn’t also take a victory on Saturday.

When the pros took over, it was a VanBeekum family sweep in Pro NA, as Ryder VanBeekum scored the Sunday win after his father Robert took the checkered flag on Saturday. Jeremy Spears and Matt Dyer would return to the top steps on the box with wins in Pro Production and Sportsman Turbo, while Carson Greco in Pro-Am, Brandon Birmingham in Pro-Am Turbo, and Ryan Bragdon in Sportsman would each go two for two on the weekend.

Wrapping things up was an intense SR1 final, which saw Brandon Kilgore deny Scott Webster a weekend sweep by just .887 seconds at the line. Following that, John Holtger’s dominance of Pro Lite continued with his second win in as many days over Michael Funk, who subbed for Holtger in the opener from Firebird.

Podium finishers from CORR 2025-26 Round 6 at Glen Helen Raceway were as follows:

Augie Renezeder Wins CORR Debut as Series Opens Glen Helen Doubleheader

Posted on | by Marketing Director

As Championship Off-Road Racing (CORR) firmly took the torch of short course off-road racing in the southwest with its debut at Glen Helen Raceway on Saturday, so, too, did the next generation of one of the sport’s most famous names.

Following in the footsteps of his legendary father Carl, Augie Renezeder stormed out of the gate in CORR’s premier Pro SXS class in a car built by another iconic name, Doug Mittag. The younger Renezeder posted a clean sweep of Saturday’s Round 5 action, qualifying first, posting the Maxxis Tires Fast Lap, and earning the victory in his series debut.

“I think it’s just believing in myself, the car, my family, and everybody coaching me, and staying as calm as possible,” Renezeder said when asked about how he took the win. “I’d like to thank my family—my head crew chief, my uncle Frank, has been working his butt off to put all this together.”

Second place went to championship leader Beau Judge, who extended the advantage with his fourth podium of the season. In spite of early chaos that saw him take contact off the start, Judge was determined not to pay it forward when chasing down Renezeder—and he was rewarded with a points advantage over Bryan McCormick that has swelled to 28.

“Right when we got off the start, going into turn one I got hit in the back and almost spun out, but I was able to make the rhythm section,” Judge explained. “Augie was running a good race, and I was right behind him… in Turn 4 he was making a swoop and he stepped out a little bit, but I didn’t want to slam into him so I slammed super hard on the brakes. I don’t know if it did something to the diff but it just made the car seem super loose from there on.”

The dream of a perfect season is over for the last two remaining drivers who had a shot coming in, as both Kyle Niner in Youth Production and Ryder Greco in Youth Restricted would occupy other spots on the podium. Niner would fight through the loss of all-wheel drive to place third while Tatum Foerster led every lap, while Greco would fall just .406 seconds short of Krew Hart at the line in a dramatic finish.

In fact, almost every Youth class would see a first-time winner on the season. Greyson Gentry kicked off the streak of new winners in 170 Production, followed by Maisyn Atteberry in 250 Modified, and Kaysen Stowell in 170 Limited. Addie Atteberry and Mikey Childress scored their fourth wins of the year in 800 Open and Youth SXS, respectively, to equal Niner and Greco on the season.

In Pro NA, it was father and son taking the top honors in the race, as Robert VanBeekum took the checkered flag and Ryder posted the Maxxis Fast Lap. VanBeekum, Pro Production’s Rylen Lane, Pro-Am Turbo’s Brandon Birmingham, Sportsman’s Ryan Bragdon, and SR1’s Scott Webster earned their first wins of the year in the Pro classes. Carson Greco joined the list of four-time winners on the season in Pro-Am, while Calvin O’Dell took his second in Sportsman Turbo and John Holtger took his fourth in Pro Lite to cap off the day.

The action continues at 8AM on Sunday morning with another full slate of races for every class. Live streaming will once again be available on RACER+ and CORR social media channels.
