Chad George |
RIALTO, CA (3/03/10) – The reigning Modified
UTV champion, Chad George will seek his 4th
major championship as he takes new partner,
Monster Energy Kawasaki, for an epic ride
through the 2010 Lucas Oil Off-Road Racing
season. Chad will debut the all new 2010 Monster
Energy Kawasaki Teryx 4x4 by FUNCO Motorsports
during Saturday’s season opener in front of a
wild Las Vegas Motor Speedway crowd.
“We are happy to be going back to the LOORS
(Lucas Oil Off-Road Series) to defend our title.
We expect a fierce championship battle, but
with the best driver, vehicle, team and
partners we will rise to the fight.” - Grant
George, FUNCO Team Manager
“The FUNCO Teryx race team has proven time and
time again that they have what it takes to be
successful on the track. Monster Energy Kawasaki
is proud to have them on the team for 2010 as
they go for their 4th straight championship, and
we’re confident we have given them a great
vehicle to continue that dominance” - Reid
Nordin, Kawasaki Motors Corp.
The 2010 Monster Energy Kawasaki Teryx 4x4
will feature aggressive 2010 styling as seen on
showrooms floors, but boosted with a C&G
Performance - Digitally Fuel Injected, V-Twin
engine. The factory inspired 90-degree V-twin
power-plant coupled with King Shocks, Beard
Seats, Dalton Clutch and Maxxis Tires will round
out an impressive performance package, that is
sure to keep the Teryx Monster claws digging for
more dirt.
Meanwhile, Chad and the team will stay safe
and sound with the protection of Simpson Racing
Products from head to toe.
When asked about the new relationship with
Monster Energy Kawasaki, Chad shared with a
grin, “Becoming a Monster Athlete is a dream
come true, my dream will become the
competition’s nightmare.”
With a record 3 major championships in 3
years, Chad’s enthusiasm to steal the 4th
championship from all competitors should be
nothing to take lightly. Keep a close eye out
this season for this Monster Energy Kawasaki
Teryx of Chad George. If you don’t hear him
coming, it’s because he’s already out front.
