MRAN Night Race Series, Jean, NV 07/26/08:

The ACE Racing Team took home its 3rd consecutive Pro ATV win in the 3rd Round of the MRAN Night Race Series.

Cody started the four hour race, and on his first lap passed most of the motorcycle field coming in the pits 5th overall. He also put a solid 5 minutes on the 2nd place quad. Shaun mounted the quad a lap later and the duo combined to put over a 10 minute lead on 2nd place half way throught the race. Cody mounted the quad again, but suffered a rear shock failure which eliminated the teams massive lead.The team was now minutes behind the now ATV leader and as many as 6 other quads. Cody got the quad back to the crew, who changed the shock out and got the quad back in the race with Shaun now piloting. Shaun, in one 18 mile lap made up the lost time on the lead quad and field passing them all to regain the #1 position in the race. Cody extended the teams lead on the lap capping off a great win. The last round of the series is August 8th, look for the team to do well and possibly sweep the series.



MRAN Night Race Series Round 2, Primm, NV 06/21/08:

Round 2 of the MRAN Night Race Series was nearly a repeat of the first round. The team didnt win without some troubles, however.

Cody started the fast, 20 mile race course in the hunt for a 2nd straight night racing victory. He had a great start, finishing his first lap in just over 30 min and mere seconds behind the quad class leader.A lap later Cody came in to the first rider switch complaining of the front headlights being loose. The crew quickly applied some sophistcated tie downs( duct tape and a bungie cord) , fueled up the quad and Shaun was off for his first of 2 laps. His 2nd lap started even better as the first place team had to pull off due to some mechanical issues, putting the duo in first place. Shaun finished his 2nd lap with a hefty lead but, a lengthy pit stop due to repairs put the team back into 2nd. Cody fought hard on his next 2 laps though the headlight mounts now broke off the quad, even after the crew rewelded them in a previous pit stop. The solution was clear, Zip ties. Cody stopped mid lap and Zip tied the assembly down, securing it enough to finish the race. Shaun mounted the quad for the last lap in a firm 2nd place as the team had heard that the 1st place team had suffered engine failure. Shaun finished the race and ACE Racing their second,though not perfect, Pro ATV win.



MRAN Night Race Series Jean, NV 06/07/08:

The 1st round of the MRAN Night Racing Series was a good one for the ACE Racing Team as they scored a Pro ATV win and finishing an impressive 6th overall between the bikes and quads.

The race was nearly a flawless one as the duo was as much as 30 min. ahead of the 2nd place team. They were also the only ATV team to finish 8 laps in the timed event. Look for the team to take on the 2nd round of the series later this month in Primm, NV.



BITD Blue Water GP Parker, AZ 05/17/08:

The temps and the racing were hot as the ACE Racing team took on the Blue Water GP along the Colorado River front. Cody started the 8 lap race, nearly holeshoting the 9 mile course. He ended up 2nd to the first corner of the Gran Prix style mass start, just behind honda's Wayne Matlock sporting the new 700XX quad. Cody stayed with the leaders as Greg Stuart took over the lead early as the first lap completed.A lap later Shaun mounted the quad, the team still in a comfortable 3rd place with 6 laps to go. The top 3 stayed the same lap after lap, the team consistantly picking up time on the 2nd place riders. Shaun recieved the quad for the last 2 laps with nearly a minute lead on the 4th place team. The 7th lap went very well keeping the distance the same. The last lap didnt go as well. Just out of the pit area Shaun suffered a flat tire, and though he ran hard he was unable to fend off the charging 4th place team. The finish did however, secure a 3rd place in overall points for the season, with the Vegas to Reno coming up soon, stay tuned!
