Irvine, CA (11/16/2010) - Monster
Energy/Funco/Kawasaki driver Chad George finished
second on both days at the penultimate round of
the Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series at Las Vegas
Motor Speedway putting him on the doorstep to a
championship in his Kawasaki Teryx™. George
followed the Teryx piloted by Muzzy Kawasaki’s
Robert Vanbeekum to the checkered flag both days
while Monster Energy Kawasaki’s Austin Kimbrell
finished third on Saturday and fifth on Sunday to
fall 12 points behind George in the standings.
With just one event remaining George is in prime
position to bring home the LOORS Unlimited UTV title.
George has run consistently near the front all season
and he knows he just has to hold on for one more
race.
“It feels good to be in a strong position
to win the championship,” said George. “We
want to finish the season on a good note so I’m
going to go out and race for the win in Phoenix.
But I’m going to be smart and make sure
I keep the championship in mind. At Vegas I knew
we had a strong car on Saturday, so on Sunday
I made sure to finish on the box.”
The race in Las Vegas served a dual purpose for
the families of the drivers as they not only got
to see some exciting racing, but they we able
to enjoy the desert oasis.
“I love racing in Las Vegas,” said
George. “It is great for my family and friends
who come to the event because they get to see
me race, but they also get to enjoy the shows
and casinos. I’m stoked we had a good weekend
and now I’m ready to finish the season in
Phoenix.”
