AND TEAM CELEBRATE
WINNING THE PRO
UTV NA CLASS AT THE
SCORE BAJA 1000.
Finishing the class in third place
was Brandon Schueler, who was
in close competition with Marc
Burnett and the Murray brothers
for a 2016 points championship.
"This year was brutal," said
Schueler. "There were some silt
beds that were out of control. We
couldn't see anything for miles. It
was rocky and we had two flats
over 850 miles. We had a good
time and kept the car together. We
ran into someone at mile 30 and
that messed up our lights which
screwed us up a little bit at night."
Derek and Jason Murry finished
in sixth place behind Justin
Lambert and his team. Marc
Burnett posted a DNF and was
one of the 15 racers who were
not able to finish in the class.
TOUGH LUCK FOR
PRO UTV NA CLASS
Out of the 16 starters in the Pro
UTV NA class only seven finished,
