Team High Lifter-Polaris Racing
Shine at Mud Nationals
Minneapolis, MN (4/27/2008) - Team
High Lifter-Polaris Racing had a great showing
at the 2008 High Lifter ATV Mud Nationals, held
at Mud Creek Off-Road Park, in Jacksonville, Texas.
The week long extravaganza featured spectacular
mud riding, special events, competitions and entertainment.
In the Supertrapp Mud Bog competition, Maggie
Robertson took first place in the "Polaris
Mud Chic Open" class on her Sportsman 800
and her husband, Brian, took second out of 65
entries in the "Pro Series" class on
his Sportsman 800. JW Otwell and his Sportsman
500 took third place in both the "Bogger"
and "Pro Series B" classes. Kelly Knutson
and Jesse Johnson took top honors out of 20 entries
in the "RUV" class in their bog-dominating
RANGER RZR.
For the Maxxis Mudda Cross competition, Randy
Miller blazed through the bog on his Sportsman
500 for a first-place finish in the "500cc
or Less" class with teammate, JW Otwell finishing
second with his Sportsman 500. Miller also took
third in the "Open" class on a Sportsman
800. Trey Thomas and his Sportsman 800 X2 took
second out of 90 entries in the "501cc &
Up" class and Jesse Johnson took third out
of 14 in the "RUV" class on his RANGER
RZR.
The RANGER CREW also made its Mud Nationals debut
as part of the EPI Endurance Challenge. The six-man
team entered the race on an exhibition basis and
ended up posting the fastest time and was one
of nine of the 18 entrants that finished the race.
The race result was a true testament to RANGER
CREW's power and ruggedness.
The team's next outing is the Texas Mudfest,
at Gator Park, in Longview, Texas, on May 1-4.
