For Immediate Release:
August, 18 2007- Attica, IN- Bigelow Motorsports owner and driver, Doug Bigelow, took top honors at this weekend’s XRRA East event finale at The Badlands Off-road Park in Attica, IN. The field of 25 competitors battled ferociously on a very fast track on the parks heralded “Quarry” floor. This weekend’s event was the largest turnout for an XRRA East event this season and the quality of competition definitely showed. Bigelow battled some of the top drivers from around the country from within the XRRA series as well as many cross-over drivers from other outside Rock Crawling sanctioning bodies. Top notable drivers attending the event included Jesse Haines, Ken Blume, Rusty Bray, Eric Childress, Mike Hullfish and Brian Shirley.
Consistently, putting down fast times over the weekend, Bigelow had either the fastest or tied second fastest time for each of the four courses run. This was Bigelow’s first competition with the XRRA sanctioning body, but he is no stranger to Rock Sports competitions, competing in the WeRock, Neuroc, and Uroc series over the past 4 years. “This weekend we came out and really tried to put down consistent times and attack the course and let the times fall where they were going to fall” ,“Fortunate for us the Bulldog Winch Moon buggy just kept after it all weekend, all I had to do was hang on tight” commented Bigelow. “We really enjoyed our first XRRA event, the Weaver’s put on a first class event and their staff has a lot to be proud of”, “We are looking forward to the 2008 season and hopefully we can join the series and make a go at it for a full year” Bigelow chimed in.
The Bigelow Motorsports team has taken two first places this season out of three competitions. The team’s next competition will be in Canada at the 7th Annual Ontario Rock Crawl competition in Parry Sound, Ontario, Canada over Labor Day weekend. www.bigelowmotorsports.com
