2009 Championship Mud Racing - Race #1







We just got back from our first Mud Race of the 2009 Season. We struggled to get our bikes ready in time but we made it and came out with some great results. Race #1 was held at Carolina Adventure World in South Carolina.
We had 4 riders representing the North Carolina Powersports Team. http://www.ncpowersports.com/

We managed to win two events and brought home a second place finish. There was teams from all over the US and once again NC Powersports came home with a strong finish.

We would like to thank Can-Am for sponsoring us for the 2009 season, our bikes had minor modifications but we were able to prove that Can-Am can dominate even with the slightest modifications. There were bikes that easily had well over $15,000 invested and we took stock Can-Am Outlander 800's with pipes, clutch kits, and snorkels and was able to win atleast 6-7 heat races and 2 main events as well as a 2nd place finish.

Plummie Norris won the 650 class aboard a 2009 Can-Am Outlander Max 650 XT
Stuart Weeks won the 800 class aboard a 2009 Can-Am Outlander Max 800 XT
Curtis Whitley placed 2nd aboard a 2009 Can-Am Outlander Max 800 XT
