The UTV World Championships were held in Lake Havasu over the weekend for the second year in a row. \u00a0Blurton won three back to back titles in 2017, 2018 and 2019. Blurton, driving a Can-AM and Piplic in a Polaris RZR, battled with each other during the entire race. Piplic won the UTV World Championship last year.\r\n\r\n\"\"\r\n\r\n\u201cWe decided this morning that we were going to set a good pace and see where we were at about halfway,\u201d Blurton said on the podium. \u201cThere were a couple guys on the first lap who were pushing at a crazy pace, and it sucks to let them leave you, but we knew what the car could take. Coming into the last lap (Ryan and I) were six seconds apart, I made a mistake and had to change a tire, and thought \u2018aw, man, second place,\u2019 but then we saw him break down.\u201d\r\n\r\n\"\"\r\n\r\nKaden Wells had a successful battle in the Naturally Aspirated class. Wells turned around and raced in the final event of the day taking second overall despite limited horsepower. Vito Ranuio rounded out the podium in third.\r\n\r\n\"\"\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nPhotography: Mad Media","excerpt":"
