CORR (DALLAS) - CHAMPIONSHIP OFF ROAD RACING RUMBLES INTO TEXAS MOTOR SPEEDWAY...

The Points battle is heating up as CORR rides into Texas for the first time on October 19th and 20th. With only two race weekends left in the 2007 CORR season the pressure is on and the racing is sure to be intense at the Texas Motor Speedway.

Baja 1000 winner and NASCAR Veteran Robby Gordon is back for two full days of racing action. He will be racing in both the Lucas Oil Series Pro 2 point’s races as well as the Pro 2 Jason Baldwin Cup Qualifier. Some of his competition will include seven time Supercross/Motocross Champion Ricky Johnson, current Pro 2 points leader Jerry Whelchel and three time CORR champion Carl Renezeder.

“I’m really looking forward to the event at Texas Motor Speedway. I always love going to a new track. It means everyone has the same empty notebook, and it tests a team’s ability to adapt quickly to a track,” said Carl Renezeder.

The dirt will fly and tempers will flare as the 2007 Championships are on the line going into Texas. The point’s race is tighter then ever, Carl Renezeder currently leads the Pro 4 point’s race and is currently contending for the Pro 2 Championship.

Our goals at the beginning of the season were to win as many races as possible, be consistently on the podium, defend our Pro-2 Championship and earn the Pro-4 Championship,” said Renezeder. As we go from race to race, we set our goals to win every time we take to the track; by doing that, the championships follow. I’d like to say we’re just focused on the points and the big picture, but the truth is we want to win races. If we get that right, then we’ll earn the title,” added defending Pro 2 Champion Carl Renezeder.

Renezeder will need to pass seven time Supercross Champion Ricky Johnson and current points leader Jerry Whelchel driver of the # 41 Monster Energy Drink Ford to win the Pro 2 Championship.

The competition is really competitive in the Pro 2 class, it makes for great racing, anything can happen,” said Jerry Whelchel. “My strategy going into Texas and Primm is to be on top of the podium, I know if I do that the # 41 will take home the Championship,” added Pro 2 point’s leader Whelchel.
