Reno, NV (12/20/2010) - Valley Off Road
Racing Association (VORRA) threw the checker
flag on its 35th desert racing season with an
exceptional group of racers competing in four
short course races and four desert races. Sam
Berri was awarded the Overall Season Title at
the end of the year Awards Banquet and Ceremony,
held at Harveys Lake Tahoe on December 11, 2010.
“This is what I called a ‘Break
the Mold’ year. We made a lot of big changes,
took a lot of risks, and I know the racers appreciated
the outcome on and off the track,” said
Wes Harbor Director of the VORRA Series.
VORRA was started in 1975 and has had a solid
group of volunteers and racers, with over a
dozen of the originals still participating today.
“The heritage in this series is what makes
it very special for me,” explains Harbor.
This year VORRA incorporated transponders, new
classes, new formats and a marketing program.
VORRA also added a new high profile desert race
the Xtreme Outlaws 250 in Reno, NV. Another
set of quality additions are going to add even
more value to the 2011 series that will start
in March.
The Annual Awards Banquet and Ceremony had so
many people that more tables had to be added.
The camaraderie in the room was high when the
video played including footage from the 1980’s
(see link below), a photo slide show of the
season rolled and awards were handed out to
the winners. There were over 190 racing participants
this year.
