9:00 AMWith a victory for Wayne Matlock’s team and a third place finish for Mike Cafro’s crew, Maxxis dominated the 2008 Baja 500 ATV, held May 30- June 1 in Mexico.
After what ATVriders.com called “almost a flawless run,” Matlock and his teammates won in 10:10:40 hours. The team traded the lead back and forth throughout the race, battling through near-zero visibility at one point. ” Everything went flawless. All we had to do was put gas in and go. We didn’t even have to change a tire. We didn’t have one problem,” Matlock said.
Cafro’s team overcame mechanical problems early on to finish in 10:19:05.
Maxxis congratulates sponsored riders Wayne Matlock, Mike Cafro, Chad Prull, and Danny Prather for their fine performances.
