The father daughter team of Tim and Allie Shelman made their presence known at the sixth round of the World Offroad Championship Series race at Cahuilla Creek Motocross Park in Anza California.  The Shelman’s are veteran WORCS racers with Tim competing in the demanding Pro Class and Allie pulling double duty in the Sport 12-15 Production B Class as well as Womens B.

Despite some bad luck this season, Tim is sitting just outside the top ten in the series points chase with three rounds remaining.  Tim is a consistant top ten finisher and even managed to holeshot ahead of the entire pro class at the Lake Havasu round.  Electrical issues forced a late start at the second round in Primm Nevada resulting in a 15th place finish and despite a nasty get off in Adelanto, Tim managed to hang tough for two grueling hours and finish 14th.  Tim was running top ten at the recent Cahuilla Creek round until he lost the bearings in a front wheel resulting in a severely damaged hub.  His pit crew managed to swap out the hub in record time and get him back on the track.  Tim would settle for 14th on the day and retain his eleventh place position in the season points standings.

The younger Shelman, Allie Cat as she’s known at the track, is making tracks and sitting comfortably atop the points standings in both Womens B and 12-15 Production Sport.  With the exception of a 4th place finish in Primm Nevada, Allie has taken either the first or second spot on the podium at every other round in the Womens B Class.  In the 12-15 Production Sport Class, Allie has maintained her lead with consistent top five finishes including a win at the opening round in Surprise Arizona.

Stay tuned for more WORCS coverage as the series heads to Olympia Washington the end of July.
