The ATVPG and the entire ATVMX Racing Family is saddened to hear of the passing of Rob Visnic. The Visnic family were in Blountville, Tennessee this past weekend for the Muddy Creek ATVMX National when Rob suffered a massive heart attack in the early morning hours of Sunday, June 4.

Rob, 47, has been traveling the ATVMX series from his hometown of St. Clairsville, Ohio, since 2011 with his son, Jacob. With the help of his father, Jacob was able to claim two National Championships in 2014 in the 90 Automatic Jr. (8-11) and 70 Automatic (6-11) classes. Jacob currently competes in the highly competitive Youth All Star and Schoolboy Sr. classes.

Family and friends will be received at Toothman Funeral Home in St. Clairsville, Ohio, on Friday, June 9, from 3 p.m. until time of service at 7 p.m. A private burial will be held in Powhatan Cemetery, Powhatan Point, Ohio.
