BLAST FROM THE PAST: PRIVATEER WINS WORCS CHAMPIONSHIP

Self sponsored Bobby Bonds, the former Factory Pro Circuit Kawasaki racer won the 2008 WORCS championship on a self sponsored KX450. And while there are always battles on the track, this photo shows the camaraderie amongst the teams. KTM held the championship until this point and gave nothing but kudos to a pilot who had come back from injuries, switched to a new segment in the sport and beat teams with full factory budgets and support.
