AEM Sponsored Carl Renezeder Gains Three Wins in Lake Elsinore
- Jul 1, 2009
LAKE FOREST, CA (June 30, 2009) – The brand new track at Lake Elsinore Motorsports Complex provided plenty of dramatic moments this past weekend for rounds five and six of the Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series, but it couldn't tame the likes of five-time national champion Carl Renezeder. In two brief practice sessions on Friday, Renezeder filled his mental notebook with everything he needed to take home three poles and three wins in four rounds of racing. Minor tweaks on set up throughout the weekend made his fast trucks faster still, and even the three-row inverted starts couldn't keep Renezeder from claiming care.
"I'm just the lucky guy that gets to drive these things," commented an ecstatic Renezeder in a post race interview. "This track is so much fun to drive, and my guys gave me a flawless truck. What more can I ask for?"
With temperatures above the century mark all weekend, the team was lucky to have a driver that thrives on tough situations and has the physical endurance to stay at the top of his game in extreme conditions. And Renezeder was lucky to have a team that could endure the heat while prepping the trucks.
"The worst part of the heat for me was sitting in the trucks in staging where I couldn't get any air," explained Renezeder. "Once we were moving, it was easy to forget about the temperature. And, I admire all of my guys for pushing through the heat to prep these things like they did. With the relentless heat and dirt, they proved once again why we're a championship team."
The team faces another hot weekend of racing the end of July when the series returns to Lake Elsinore July 24-26. But before then, fans can catch the Lake Elsinore races again on Saturday, July 12, 2009 on SPEED Channel.
