Ontario, CA (9/21/2011) -
ITP was proud to be a part of the 2011
SxS & ATV Roundup, held for the third
time at Brimstone Recreation near Huntsville,
Tennessee. There’s nothing like
spending a Labor Day weekend with 5,000
of your closest friends!
The desert-like conditions experienced
this year (hot and dry) did little to
dampen the fun and excitement this event
always presents. Activities included guided
trail rides for riders of all ability
levels, a “Show and Shine,”
a drive-in movie, a Kid Zone, and a concert
by Tracy Lawrence. A vendor/demo area
drew plenty of attention, and ITP was
there. ITP also held a raffle drawing
for a set of Mayhem tires.

There
was a huge turn out for the ITP
tires giveaway! |
There were a number of competitive events
as well, such as drag
races, sled pulls, an obstacle course,
pole bending, mud bogs and a ladies
dash for cash. Highlighting the racing
was Sunday’s King of the Mountain
Endurance Challenge.
The King of the Mountain race is one
of the toughest around, a
true test of man and machine: in the three-hour
ATV event only 12 of the 23
entrants were able to finish; only five
of 19 UTVs were able to complete
their two-hour event. ITP passed this
test with flying colors, as Alan
Clark and Chris Umphrey finished first
and third in the UTV race, both
running ITP 900XCT tires. Jimmy Elam was
the ATV winner, using ITP Holeshot
GNCC tires at the rear of his quad. Congratulations,
guys!
We highly recommend putting the SxS
& ATV Roundup on your itinerary for
2012. There is something for everyone
on Brimstone’s 19,000 acres in northeast
Tennessee. To learn more, visit http://brimstonerecreation.com.
