RANCHO CORDOVA, CA OCTOBER 20, 2010: The Nor-Cal Rock Race on Saturday October 16th was entertaining for the spectators, and a lot of fun for the competitors with hundreds of dollars in prizes to win, and a $2,000 cash pro purse. “We had so much fun, it was the best $200 entry fee I have spent!” Randy Avery, who raced a red jeep on 35” tires, took the win for the Metal Cloak team and left with $1600 of cash in his pocket.
Even though the list of drivers was short, the action that they brought to the course was crowd pleasing. “From the middle of the track you could heard the crowd laughing, cheering, and ohhing,” said John Goodby, Event Producer. “Especially when they starting racing side by side and literally went wheel to wheel.” NorCal Rock Racing is short course racing with large rock piles, dirt obstacles and lots of turns that make it a perfect match for the Ultra4 cars all the way to Sportsman Class trail rock crawlers that want to prove they can go fast through the rocks too.
