Motorsports Polaris Rzr S Claimed the
Overall Win at the 3 Hour UTV Heartland
Challenge |
Minneapolis, MN (11/11/2008) - The
Polaris RANGER RZR continues its winning ways,
this time taking two of the three podium spots
overall, at the first-annual Heartland Challenge
UTV endurance race, in Carlisle, Iowa.
The three-hour UTV race, saw Polaris’
Region Sales Manager Matt Lube and Steve Muncur
winning the 850cc stock class as well the
Overall race in their Polaris RANGER RZR S.
Second overall went to Karst Motorsport’s
RANGER RZR. Third in 850cc stock class went
to CST Racing, a local farmer and enthusiast,
who purchased a RANGER RZR only six days prior
to the race.
“This was a great first-time, endurance
event,” said Race Winner and Polaris
Region Sales Manager, Matt Lube. “The
weather and mud definitely added to the challenge
but the RANGER RZRs shined among the competition.
It is truly impressive how well these machines
performed and held up to the elements.”
