Lake Elsinore, Calif. - James Hill wins Gorman Ridge Rally in UTV and furthers points lead in the Production class. Hill and co-driver Riley McGuinness drove their IMG Motorsports outfitted UTV to secure 6 out of 12 Stage wins. While the duo proved they belong in the top spot on course they had received a 3-minute time penalty in a transit that ended them in second overall out of the entire event and top finishing UTV.
“We knew when Verdier had a mechanical in his Turbo car that we had to keep up the times and land a UTV on top,” Hill said. “Riley was on point all day and our car was flawless. We had a hiccup in transit and picked up a three minute time penalty which put us into second for the event overall but we had a blast and can’t thank our supporters enough.”
A total entry of 25 vehicles at the Gorman Rally Ridge ran incredibly smooth with the help of 90 or more volunteers to take on the duties of timing, radio, crew and sweeps.
