VISTA, CA (March 11,
2008) – Today, Danny Sullivan
released the TForce Motorsports 2008 race season
calendar which will begin with the SCORE San Felipe
250 on Saturday March 15th. The 232-mile sprint
will be the first off-road competition of the year
for fans to follow the Toyota Tundra Trophy Truck.
Sullivan announced the team will compete in four
off-road races this calendar year including all
three SCORE International events located on the
Baja peninsula. “The SCORE races are our primary
focus with special plans for the Baja 1000 in November.
Nothing compares to the mystique and difficulty
of desert racing in Mexico.” Additionally,
the team is entering the TSCO “Vegas to Reno”
in August, known as the longest off-road race in
America.
TForce debuted at the 2007 Baja 1000 in November
receiving a warm welcome from Toyota enthusiasts
excited to see a Tundra return to the high profile
Trophy Truck category. The team launched an aggressive
campaign to build the program in six months, just
in time to race the 40th Anniversary Baja 1000 event.
“Our goal to merely compete and finish was
successful.. Now we have set our sights to be a
serious contender and eventually capture the overall
Baja 1000 win. This is no easy task considering
the current level of competition. The San Felipe
race may be shorter in duration, but given the difficulty
of the course, it will be an excellent test for
the team” explained Crew Chief Christian Reicher.
The SCORE San Felipe 250 begins at 10 a.m. PST on
Saturday the 15th. Race fans can track the team
live and get updated race information throughout
the day by logging on to www.tforcemotorsports.com.
The newly redesigned website launched in conjunction
with Sullivan’s schedule announcement.
