CLASS 25: WAYNE MATLOCK, No. 1A (First in class. Matlock started and shared riding duties with Josh Caster and Wes Miller.) “We’ve won four in a row now in Class 25. We got the class win today but we didn’t get the overall. We always come here to get the overall but we’ll take the class win. You can’t get them all. We’ve got to go win the 1000 overall. Co-driver Josh Caster said: It was going good and at the bottom of the summit I had about a 10-minute lead on the next quad and broke an upper ball joint. I sat down at mile 20 for about 40 minutes until I could get the satellite phone out and I realized we had (a spare ball joint) in the front pack and got it put back together and got going again. I pushed all the way until we got back into the front. I think Wayne (Matlock) took the lead back coming up from Borrego to San Matias and then we got on and started pulling away from there.”
