RENO, NV JANUARY 10, 2011 – Roger Norman is dedicating the 2011 season to winning the SCORE Championship in the Norman Motorsports Crystal Bay Casino Trophy Truck. “We had two choices, either we compete in all the ‘biggest races’, or we run for the SCORE championship,” said Roger Norman. “We decided as a team that we did all the ‘big races’ last year, and that we would like to win a championship this year.”
The very first SCORE race of the season is the Laughlin Desert Challenge this weekend in Laughlin, Nevada. “I see this race as harder to finish than the Baja 1000 because it is a rough 6.25 mile course that tears up the equipment very easily and we barley have time to change a flat, much less fix anything,” commented Norman. Norman will be 15th to qualify on Friday for starting position, 29 Trophy Trucks are currently entered. Jake Velasco, recently named Norman Motorsports Team Manager, will be co-driving with Norman to assist with quick and immediate fixes on the truck. (more…)
