Ryan Beat eventually moved into the lead. Cory Winner sat quietly picking off drivers. He patiently waited for his opportunity, and with three laps to go, Winner struck. First getting around Ronnie Anderson who had managed to run second place. Then Winner chased down Beat crossing with just 6\/10ths of second for a victory.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/22ERXRound5_KyleGreavesWin-200x300.jpg\")

\r\n\r\nAnother successful racer at ERX is Kyle Greaves. Greaves has five career wins at ERX. When the green flag dropped he immediately shot into the lead going wire to wire for another victory. Round 6 was a much different story with Trey Gibbs starting off in the lead. About midway into the race, Johnny Holtger made an impressive move around both Gibbs and Brock Heger as they were fighting for the lead. Holtger did everything he could to hold off pressure from Gibbs. In the end Holtger won the race.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/22ERXRound5_JohnnyG-300x200.jpg\")

\r\n\r\nJohnny Greaves was back on top in Friday\u2019s Round 5 Pro-4 race. With the sun setting and shadows cast on the track, drivers had their work cut out for them. When the green flag dropped, Andrew Carlson was in the lead. After all, ERX is his hometown track. His race shop is just yards from the track on the ERX property. Unfortunately, Carson spun out handing the lead over to CJ Greaves. Just a couple laps later, the younger Greaves would pull off the track with an electrical issue. Kyle Chaney moved to the front for the third lead change of the race. It wasn\u2019t long before Johnny Greaves made a pass for the lead. Hot on Greaves heels was Kyle Leduc who also made a move around Chaney. As the clock wound down, Leduc was unable to get to the lead and soon had to pit for a tire change. Greaves cruised to a win. In Round 6, Greaves put his Friday bad luck behind him, put his head down and worked his way to the front of the pack. Ahead of him was Kyle Leduc. The two would battle door to door for several laps before Leduc suffered mechanical issues. Greaves became victorious.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nPhotos courtesy of Proformance Media","excerpt":"![\"\"](\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Champ-Off-Road-2022-Schedule-1024x602.jpg\")
\r\n\r\nChampionship Off-Road is moving into its third year. \u201cWe are excited to be able to bring back our core events this season and plan to expand even more for 2023,\u201d said Championship Off-Road President Carl Schubitzke. \u201cChampionship Off-Road had some amazing racing last year, with so many titles coming down to the last weekend. We saw measurable levels of success in 2021, from the number of racers on track to the addition of the CBS Sports Network and record-setting live stream viewers. We can\u2019t wait for the new season to start.\u201d","excerpt":"![\"\"](\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ERX_Mickey-Thomas-300x200.jpg\")

\r\n\r\nIn Round 5 Pro-2, Jerett Brooks started side-by-side with Mickey Thomas. As the laps continued, Ryan Beat began pressuring both drivers in an effort to get to the front. Beat moved in front of Thomas and started coming after Brooks. Unfortunately, Brooks\u2019 truck stalled out and Beat took over the lead. Thomas and Beat would continue to battle door to door, but on the last lap something happened to Ryan Beat\u2019s truck and Thomas took his first Championship Off Road victory. Trevor Leighton was out front when the green flag dropped in round 6 and never looked back going wire to wire. Kyle Kleiman finished second.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ERX_Kyle-Leduc-300x200.jpg\")

\r\n\r\nIn the Pro-4 class for Round 5, RJ Anderson was out front, racing ERX for the first time. An over-rotation would open the door for CJ Greaves and Kyle Leduc to both make a pass for the lead. Anderson would later get tangled up with Johnny Greaves. Kyle Leduc ended up with the victory. CJ Greaves and RJ Anderson battled for the lead, back and forth. It wouldn\u2019t be long before Kyle Leduc inserted himself into the battle. Leduc would make a mistake and get counted right back out of the battle. When the dust settled Anderson bounced off k-rail allowing Greaves to keep forward momentum for the win. Kyle Leduc was able to get by Anderson for second.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ERX_Brock-Heger-300x200.jpg\")

\r\n\r\nBrock Heger claimed in another Pro-Lite win in Round 5. Just a day later in Round 6, Heger wasn\u2019t so lucky. Kyle Greaves started on the front row and continued the momentum all the way to the checkered flag for the victory.\r\n\r\nChampionship Off Road heads to Dirt City in Lena, Wisconsin at the end of July.\r\n\r\nPhotos courtesy of Amanda Fonferek","excerpt":"
