Fule Off-Road's Katie Vernola scored a podium finish for Round One

“At the start we all slammed into each other, but I stayed calm and worked my way through,” said Vernola. “I know what to do and what not to do in the next round. Finishing on the podium means a lot to me. I like this course a lot better than last year. I can actually catch some speed and we finally got a triple. That’s the kind of racing I like to do. It’s a good show and I’m enjoying it. I’m fortunate to have both K&N filters and Fuel Off Road sponsoring me this year.”

Deegan is the youngest competitor in the Terracross field. The veteran off roader, Legends Car and late model racer didn’t let her age faze her. After leading the first two laps of the first race, a broken axle and rear differential problem sidelined her hard charge. Her luck changed in the second race.

“This is my first time racing Terracross and we did really well,” said Deegan, who also competed with her father in the Shootout race. “I broke a front axle on the parade lap of the first lap and then the rear diff pulled out. I wish I could have gotten to the front faster in the second race. I was just focused on finishing, so I was happy to finish third.”
