Kory Ellis Wins Mickey Thompson
Stadium Series ATV Racing Finale
Mickey Thompson / Kal Gard
Stadium Series - Perris Auto Speedway - Perris,
CA
Corona, CA (10/3/2009)
-September marked the final round of
the Mickey Thompson series taking place at Perris
Auto Speedway in Perris California. This year
was the first time that Quad racing was welcomed
back to the series since the last Mickey Thompson's
were ran over 10 years ago.
Dirt Alliance joined forces with
Triumph Motorsports to get quads out to the
series. Numbers seem to grow after the first
race once word got out about how fun the event
was. Dennis Capogni seemed to be a step above
the competition at the first round, but the
second round showed Davi Haagsma could come
out and run with some of California's fastest
racers.

This last round brought out Kory
Ellis. With Chris Riley and Dennis Capogni missing
it seemed the only racers to give Kory Ellis
a race was Davi Haagsma, and Darrel Patton.
Qualifying went well for all the
racers and put Haagsma on the pole position
for the main event.
Before the main event we got to
walk around to look at all the great vendors
that participated in the event.

Skin
brought out a DJ and some lovely ladies
to show their support |
Amsoil
was on hand to show the public their great
oils |
It's vendors like these that make
an event great!

Walking
around we noticed that the fan base for
these races were huge. It was nice to
see even in this economy that people still
love to come out to watch Off Road racing |
It only took a few corners for
Kory Ellis to work his way to the front |
