It’s hard to pull the limelight away from the likes of Dustin Farthing and his sons’ racing efforts, but what name you consistently saw in the Top 5 – if not regularly on the podium – was Camden Powell. The lone Kawasaki racer put up a helluva battle all season long, beating back a field of Sea-Doos and Yamahas, finishing third overall in the P1 AquaX Enduro Class aboard his RIVA-equipped Kawasaki Ultra 310X.
Thankfully, much of the season consisted of big surf and rough conditions, giving the Deep-V Ultra a significant edge. Powell’s #44 Ultra charged hard, earning the racer a spot on RIVA’s Pro Team. RIVA Racing’s President, Dave Bamdas told WCJ, “We are excited to have Camden join our team of supported RIVA racers. He’s very fast and represents us professionally on and off the water.”
For those wondering what made Powell’s P1 Ultra 310 so competitive, Bamdas listed the following mods, which included a handful of prototype and one-off components that very well may be made available to the public:
• RIVA/Maptuner ECU Tuning
• RIVA Powerfilter
• RIVA K3 Supercharger Pulley Kit (new product)
• RIVA Wastegate Block-Off Kit
• RIVA 22+ Ultra Ride Plate (prototype)
• RIVA Ultra Sponsons
• Solas KR-CD-14/18 impeller
• RIVA/Idiartec Steering System (new colab part)
• RIVA 30” Pro Bars
• ODI Ruffian 130mm Grips
• RIVA Billet Grip Ends
• RIVA/Jettrim Ultra Seat Cover
