The Menzies race team charges into a busy couple of weeks
AMERICAN FALLS, ID The next couple of weeks are going to be busy for the entire off road community. The third round of the Lucas Oil Off Road Race Series (LOORRS) is quickly approaching this weekend followed immediately by the SCORE Baja 500. The Menzies Motorsport team is in high gear preparing to compete in both events.
At this week’s LOORRS race in Vegas the team will be campaigning a complete arsenal of vehicles including a Pro2 truck driven by Bryce Menzies, Unlimited Buggy’s piloted by Larry Job and Cameron Steele. Rounding out the team’s efforts in Vegas will be Justin “Bean” Smith and Toby Bost racing in the Limited Buggy class. Coming into the three race weekend of 2010, the team as a whole is performing at the top of their game. Bean leads the Limited Buggy points, Larry Job and Cameron Steele are in second and third place in the Unlimited Buggy class, while Bryce is tied for 4th place in the Pro2 class. Hard work and persistence have got Menzies to the top; they are burning the midnight oil leading up to the race in hopes of staying at the top.
Right from the LOORRS weekend the Menzies team will pack up and head to Mexico for the upcoming Baja 500. At the Mint 400 a couple of months ago, Bryce made his debut behind the wheels of the new Menzies trophy truck built by the Geiser Brothers. In that debut he finished 4th. The team has spent the time since the Mint testing and prepping the Geiser built truck for the upcoming race in Baja. While Bryce has a ton of desert racing experience, none of it is south of the border. This will be his and the team’s first effort in Baja. They are betting that the persistence and hard work that has got them to the top of the LOORRS series will work for them in Mexico too.
