Brown and Caselli Finish 1-2 at WORCS Round 4









Brown
and Caselli Dominate WORCS Round 4



Adelanto,
CA – FMF/KTM riders Mike Brown and Kurt Caselli finished 1st
and 2nd
overall at the fourth round of the WORCS at Racetown 395.



The
track conditions were rough and the weather was hot neither of which
bothered the FMF/KTM Factory stars Brown and Caselli as they
dominated the field in the desert terrain of Southern California.



Off the
line, Brown was the lead KTM rider in 5th
position with Caselli sitting in 9th.
Brown maintained 5th
position for the first few laps before passing for 4th
and soon 3rd
near the halfway point. Meanwhile Caselli quickly picked off the
bottom ten riders and was soon sitting in 5th
position before the pit.



Brown
lost some time to current leader Ricky Dietrich when he stopped for
gas first. The following lap Brown began to reel in Dietrich and made
the pass the following lap. Brown was able to pull more on the field
when most riders pit the next lap.



Caselli
turned up the heat after the gas stop first passing into 4th
and then moving to an easy 3rd
position after Kyle Summers broke with two laps to go. Caselli was
soon hot on the trail of a tiring Dietrich, who was suffering from
flu-like symptoms. Caselli quickly moved around Dietrich and began to
close the gap on his teammate Brown.



Brown
took home the win with his son there to greet him. “I always seem
to win when my son comes to the races, I think he needs to start
coming to them all,” commented Brown after the event. Caselli
finished in 2nd
just a few seconds down from Brown and Dietrich rounded out the
podium in 3rd.



FMF/KTM
Hare & Hound rider David Kamo made the drive from Idaho to
participate in the Adelanto race. Kamo suffered from a poor start,
caught and passed a few riders early on and then and rode a
consistent pace to finish the race. “I struggled a bit here. I am
used to being in 5th
gear pinned at the desert races, and I never saw 5th
gear once today,” remarked Kamo. “But it is always worth the
drive to come here for the race experience and the added training.”



Brown’s
win today moves him up to third in championship points while Caselli
remains in the lead 6 points ahead of Dietrich. “I would have liked
to take home the win here today, but when I can’t get it – it is
good to know the guy ahead of me is my teammate,” stated Caselli.
