PISTOL PETE ADDS SLIME FOR HIS RUN AT THE BAJA 1000

    

    

   Phoenix, AZ (November 10, 2009) - Pistol Pete Sohren went to Las  
Vegas to promote his Baja Racing Adventures with a display at the 2009  
SEMA show and then without warning, hit the jackpot by landing a title  
sponsorship from Slime, the #1 tire sealant in the world, for his  
Trophy Truck for the upcoming Tecate SCORE Baja 1000. In the past,  
Sohren has partnered with Slime as an associate, but drawing the  
number one starting position for the sport?s biggest race really set  
the table when creating marketing opportunities.

    

   /I believe the relationship we have built with Slime over the  
years, and our team?s commitment to Baja solidified our partnership/,  
noted the outspoken Pete Sohren. /Starting first I know I?ll run into  
my share of Baja Booby traps, Sometimes the local fans will pile dirt,  
garbage, and old wooden pallets across the course. Many times there  
are nails in the wood, and that causes punctures. I know my Maxxis  
Tires can handle just about any type of abuse, but Slime is a great  
insurance policy when running over nails. Now its my job to start  
first and finish first in the Slime Maxxis Tire Ford F-150 Trophy  
Truck./

    

   Speaking of commitment, Sohren had little time to reflect on the  
events of the past few days, as he loaded up his prerunner at the end  
of Thursday?s activities at SEMA and headed for Baja to begin  
prerunning for the forty second edition of the Baja 1000.

    

   As Pistol Pete stated, he will also be making the 1000-kilometer  
run on Maxxis Tires. Maxxis Tires offer the Ford powered Trophy Truck  
unrelenting traction and unmatched durability. New for the #2 Trophy  
Truck is a new experimental Tubeworks transmission designed to improve  
the truck?s overall performance.

    

   The Tecate SCORE Baja 1000 begins Thursday, November 19 with  
Technical Inspection and the competitor?s parade through Contingency  
Row. The race gets underway on Friday, November 20, as Pistol Pete is  
first off the line at 10:30am.

    

   Pete Sohren would also like to thank all his supporters including:

   Slime, Baja Racing Adventures, Maxxis Tires, Tubeworks, King  
Shocks, KC Hilites, and Motive Gear.
