RENO, NV * * NOVEMBER 11, 2010* – Roger Norman’s Crystal Bay Casino #8 Trophy Truck will start first off the line in the 2010 Tecate SCORE Baja 1000.* Roger Norman will remain the driver the entire 1050 miles, with co-driver Lance Clifford.* “I feel that this is the best opportunity that I would have in my life to Iron Man a race and win.* You just can’t turn down an opportunity like that,” states Roger Norman who will be first off the line with an incredible truck, a co-driver who has invested as much effort into pre-running the race as Norman and an extremely supportive team.
Norman and Clifford have pre-ran over 5,200 miles since mid-October.* “We have been putting in a lot of time making sure that our notes are right, and then checking them again,” said Clifford.* “Roger is a very strong driver and I think that we will be solid come race day.”* They have been recapping their daily adventures of pre-running at http://rogernormanracing.com/2010-baja-1000-prerunning-adventures-last-updated-wed-oct-20
After the extensive time invested in pre-running, Roger wanted to do one complete run of the course to ensure that he was ready to Iron Man the race.* He successfully completed the task this week driving the entire racecourse, less the first 30 or so miles. “We had a little longer pits than normal, and we lost communications for almost the entire racecourse, but I didn’t have one flat BFGoodrich tire or any real problems with the truck.* Overall, we had a great run, and I feel very confident that Lance and I will be able to run the entire race and be successful.”* Norman drove the single seat trophy truck that he has competed in twice this year at the NORRA 1000 and the Mexicana Logistics 300.* “The most wild part of the whole thing was at around midnight I hit a mile long silt bed outside of Loreto, there was a so much silt coming over the hood it was amazing!* I knew that I was the only one out there to dig myself out with no way to call for help, so I was even that more motivated to get through it,” laughed Norman.
The entire Norman Motorsports team is very excited about the race coming up next week. *Roger will be in Ensanada all week handing out autograph cards featuring KMC wheels and the entire team.
