The
Blingstar / Rockstar Polaris RZR XP
900 SxS / UTV Race Team racing at Lake
Elsinore Motorsports Park
|
Corona, CA (6/21/2012) - Clint
Roberts w/ Blingstar Products Inc. is the team
owner/manager and put this team together to
get more involved with the UTV racing scene.
It all started after pitching the idea to Polaris
Industries, that I wanted to take factory Polaris
900 XP's right from the dealership floor, make
a few mods to the cage, bolt on a few Blingstar
products and race these things competitively
and show to the public just how awesome these
machines were. I knew that other teams had taken
stock Polaris RZR 900 XP's and raced BITD, WORCS
and other series, but never has anyone attempted
to race short course stadium type racing with
them.
We then called the promoter of Lucas Oil and
explained to them that their program for UTV's
could be much larger if we created a new class
that allowed UTV's other than the UTV SR1 class.
They were excited to work with us and that’s
exactly what they did. Now Lucas Oil Regional
Series offers this UTV unlimited class and its
a blast.

Blingstar / Rockstar Polaris RZR XP 900
SxS / UTV Race Team |
While I was working on putting this team together,
BLINGSTAR and ROCKSTSAR Energy Drink agreed
on doing a licensing deal for UTV products and
graphics. They basically wanted to get involved
into the UTV market knowing that its growing
rapidly and Blingstar was excited to help make
it happen. Since working with ROCKSTAR, we have
created the Rockstar/Blingstar/Polaris UTV team
and have also designed a Rockstar/Blingstar
UTV graphic kit that is now available for sale
to the public. It is the exact same design you
will see on all of our race team UTV’s,
minus the sponsor logos. We will be releasing
other Rockstar products built by Blingstar in
the future.
On June 9th, we competed in our first race
at the Lucas Oil Regional Series June 9th. in
Lake Elsinore, Ca. The Rockstar/Blingstar/Polaris
team ended up finishing 1st, 2nd and had 4 cars
finish in the top 5. We will be competing in
all the Lucas Oil Regional races, the final
rounds of the WORCS races and Doing some BITD
and Baja races.
