Minneapolis, MN (8/29/2007)
- The Polaris RANGER RZR proved its
grit, dependability and incredible staying power
in the desert this past weekend when it was
the only side-by-side to finish the grueling
567 miles of the Best in the Desert's Series
"Vegas to Reno" race. The RANGER RZR
was built and piloted by Jagged X and finished
the race in just over 21 hours
"The RZR continues to show
its awesome combination of power, performance,
and reliability whether on the trail or the
track," said Craig Scanlon, product line
sales manager for the Polaris Side x Side Division.
"Polaris could not be more proud of the
passion, preparation and dedication of our partners
at Jagged X. We would like to thank them for
helping us reach this milestone in RANGER RZR
racing history."
The Best in the Desert's "Vegas
to Reno" race is the longest off-road race
in the United States encompassing 567 miles.
Defeating the desert's punishing 105 degree
temperatures, deep silt, rocks, and rutted Nevada
moonscape, the RANGER RZR out-ran and out-lasted
ten other starters.
"This finish brings credibility
to The UTV class and proves the Polaris RZR
as a great off road performance machine,"
said Bill Schueler, owner of Jagged X. "Jagged
X is proud to represent Polaris and would like
to thank all who helped with our racing program.
Desert racing is one of the most demanding motorsports
on both equipment and drivers. We are proud
of our crew and can't wait for the next race."
Jagged X's four-man team included
Brandon Schueler, Justin Schueler, Bill Schueler
and Blake Van De Loo. This win rockets the Jagged
X Team into a leadership position of the Best
in the Desert Racing series. The team was sponsored
by Jagged X, Polaris, Cart Wheelin Magazine,
CR Designs, Mountain States Contracting,Vision
X Lighting, OMF Performance, Jet Trim Seats,
