Johnny Greaves Chooses the RHM Chassis Kit for PRO-2
Johnny Greaves Chooses the RHM Chassis Kit to battle for the 2008 CORR
Pro-2 championship!
April 7, 2008 (Holland, MI) ? After an eight year absence from PRO-2
competition, six-time CORR champion Johnny Greaves, will compete again
in the two-wheel drive full size-truck division of Championship
Off-Road Racing. Just a couple of weeks ago, Monster Energy approached
Greaves Motorsports about adding a PRO-2 truck to their racing stable.
Fortunately the #22 Monster Energy Forest County Potawatomi Toyota
Tundra PRO-4 was practically ready for the season opener, so Johnny
and his crew chief and brother Curt, were up to the task.
With only five weeks to prepare, the team called upon Ross Hoek
Motorsports to supply the team with their PRO-2 chassis kit. As
arguably the best PRO-4 chassis builders in the world, Greaves
Motorsports took on the challenge to build their PRO- 2 in just four
weeks. This left the final week for a quick test session.
?Ross?s truck is a proven design and race tested,? commented Johnny
Greaves. ?RHM had everything we needed in stock and ready for
delivery. We like to do things our own way, but we?re all about light
and strong, and the RHM chassis provides both.?
Less than one week after picking up the chassis components, the
Greaves removed their PRO-2 chassis from the jig and began the
sheetmetal work. A few days later the chassis was on its wheels. Just
after two weeks the team was waiting for the powerplant and its rear
end. Johnny and Curt are planning to test the truck just three weeks
after starting the build.
?We couldn?t have done it without the RHM chassis kit,? stated crew
chief Curt Greaves. ?Ross and his crew have thousands of hours in the
design alone and it shows in the quality of the components and ease of
the build.?
?Ross Hoek Motorsports is very proud to have helped Greaves
Motorsports make the step into PRO-2,? commented Ross Hoek. ?Last
year we got a ton of input from Brendan Gaughan and Dan Vandenhuvel
when they drove our truck while I was injured. We really look forward
to Johnny and Curt?s feedback to make our chassis not only the easiest
PRO-2 to build, but also THE BEST PRO-2 to build. This a huge step
towards reaching our goal since our initial concept back in 2003.?
The first Championship Off-Road Racing event of the year is April
26-27, at The Fairplex in Pomona, CA. Watch Johnny Greaves perform
double duty in PRO-4 and PRO-2 competition.
