Weller Racing
Dominates Las Vegas LOORRS
Lucas Oil Off Road Race Series
- Las Vegas Motor Speedway - Rounds 13 & 14
Chandler, AZ (11/10/2010) -Whoever
coined the phrase “what happens in Vegas,
stays in Vegas” certainly didn’t have
Weller Racing in mind, nor their SR1 class podium
sweep, which occurred during rounds 13 and 14
of the Lucas Oil Off Road Race Series this past
weekend at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, located just
to the north of Sin City.
Rebounding from a frustrating 12th round, Weller
Racing’s Tilted Kilt/MagnaFlow/LoneStar
SR1 driver Corry Weller turned up the heat this
past weekend and hit the Vegas track with a vengeance,
determined to make a statement in the last few
races of the season.
“I was pretty bummed about having to pull
out of the last race at Speedworld to save my
motor.” stated Weller. “I knew that
would pretty much make it impossible for me to
win the championship, but I decided right then
and there, sitting in my car watching everyone
else race by, that I would do everything I could
to make sure I was on the podium for the rest
of the season.”
That determination paid off with back to back
wins in the SR1 class, as Weller led Saturday
and Sunday’s races from start to finish,
taking home wins for both rounds and giving her
fans and sponsors quite a bit to be proud of.
“We all run stock motors, so it’s
the decisions we make in my setup like my Maxxis
tires, Walker Evans shocks and MagnaFlow exhaust
that can mean the difference between a win and
a loss.” says Weller.
In the Unlimited UTV class, Weller Racing’s
Kawasaki/Monster backed driver Austin Kimbrell
was also a presence on the podium for both rounds,
giving Funco/Kawasaki’s Chad George a true
fight to the finish in the points race for the
season. With only a few points separating the
two Kawasaki drivers, the final round at Firebird
will be anything but boring!
“I’m really happy with how this whole
weekend turned out.” said Jason Weller,
owner of Weller Racing. “After the last
round, we spent a lot of time on Corry’s
car, going through everything and making sure
she wouldn’t have any problems out there
this time. It’s a great feeling when all
of that time and effort pays off with a pair of
wins.”
When asked about his feelings going into the
final round, Jason said “We have faith in
Austin, and know he can do what it will take to
pull off the Championship for 2010. We also know
that Corry will win races when she’s got
a problem-free car, so we are really looking forward
to the last race at Firebird.”
Weller Racing would like to recognize and thank
the Tilted Kilt, MagnaFlow, Walker Evans, LoneStar
Racing, Maxxis Tires, AEM, Cognito, Simpson Racing,
K&N, Twisted Stitch, Unisteer, Parker Pumper,
and Rigid Industries for their support for the
2010 season. We hope to see all of our friends
and fans at the final round at Firebird in Arizona
on Dec. 11th!
