Full Story Race Coverage Photo Gallery

DirtNewz Staff -

Crandon, Wisconsin (September 4, 2006) Amsoil's Scott Douglas had a career racing weekend capturing two Pro-4 wins and also claiming the elite Borg-Warner Championship trophy as the most talented racers in off road racing took to the famed track at Crandon, Wisconsin. Douglas put his Amsoil/Khumo Pro-4 in the winner's circle after driving to perfection all weekend long.

The mood of the Borg-Warner Championship race was marred by a wild crash in turn one at the Crandon International Raceway involving fan favorite, Johnny Greaves. Traveling at nearly 100 miles an hour, Greaves bicycled his Toyota Tundra up on the two left wheels and flipped wildly over and over and over. Greaves was later rushed to the hospital with unidentified injuries. Greaves Motorsports Public Relations Manager, Mitch Covington, will provide details at a later date.

Finishing in second position in the Borg-Warner Championship Shootout was Carl Renezeder and third was Monster Energy Drink's super phenom, Jerry Whelchel.

Whelchel put his #41 Monster Energy / Wide Open Baja sponsored race truck up front early and ran hard throughout the race. Facing the charge from the four wheel drive Pro-4 class, Whelchel outdueled many other drivers with a grand performance.

Pro-Lite Winner- Rodrigo Ampudia

Mexican racer, Rodrigo Ampudia wasted no time charging to the front of the pack in the wild Pro-Lite race as he doubled up his wins this weekend capturing victory on both Saturday and Sunday.

Ampudia battled with fellow rookie, Robert Naughton, who finished second on both days. Naughton, a fearless racer, whose privateer efforts have seen him take an outdated truck to the podium three times so far this season, is a serious factor to win any race he enters.

After a wild crash on Saturday, Chad Hord came back and put together a great performance that saw him finish on the podium in third position. Hord credited his crew for their dedication in putting his truck back together working until 4:00 a.m.

Jeff Kincaid suffered an onboard fire that sidelined him after only two laps. 2004 CORR Pro-Lite Champion - Kyle LeDuc rolled his Skyjacker Pro-Lite as he tried to pass Robert Naughton in the Argon loop. That crash slowed LeDuc enough that he was never able to get back on the leap lap.

Carl Renezeder Pro-2 Winner

Round 12 started with an incredible run for the 17 Pro-2 trucks as they battled gingerly in the first turn at 90 miles per hour. Leading the group of the nation's top drivers was the Skyjacker sponsored Scott Taylor who runs Rousch Racing engine power. However, that all changed when Taylor, after he roared to the lead in the first five laps, unexpectedly pulled off the course.

Renezeder pulled out to the front and never looked back taking the Nissan / Lucas Oil Titan truck to victory lane once again!

Finishing in second position wasthe # 7 Rancho/Amsoil truck of Scott Douglas. In third it was Mike Oberg who outlasted Monster Energy Drink's Jerry Whelchel in his bid for the podium. Whelchel had got around Oberg in the final two turns, however as Whelchel approached the finish line he lost his left rear tire, which allowed Oberg to retake the third position position and reach the podium for the second time in as many days.
