LOVELL RACES TO TOP 5 FINISH
BROTHERS RACE IN FRONT OF HUGE
HOMETOWN CROWD
Colorado Springs, CO, (June 18, 2007) –
The Colorado Spring’s XRRA event is now in the history books and it was quite an event for the Lovell Team. From disaster to lightening fast racing, the story is told by Brad Lovell:

I raced first and with help from our huge hometown crew, found myself at the start line for our first race. The clock started and I left the gates solo. I weaved through the course in eerie silence until I crashed down a rock face, slamming the front into the dirt. All was well but the impact caused an electrical malfunction that was affecting the engine. Every time I bumped into something, it sputtered. I lost a couple seconds and was unable to clear the big jump, but at the finish line.
