Minneapolis, MN (9/29/2009)
- With two Best in the
Desert Races remaining, Jagged X and their RANGER
RZR S took the Bilek Racing Silver State 300
race and inched themselves closer to their third
Best in the Desert championship.
There were ten Side-by-Sides that started
the race and the No. 1919 started in fourth
position. The 321-mile loop took the racers
through some of the most beautiful country
in Nevada and up to over 7000 ft through a
pine forest and then back to the desert floor.
The RANGER RZR S performed flawlessly the
entire race making only scheduled fuel stops
with Brandon Schueler driving and Mike West
in the navigator’s seat. Schueler was
able to obtain the lead by about race-mile
146 and stayed up front all the way to the
finish.
“The 2009 points chase is a close one
with only a few points separating the top
three race teams,” said Brandon Schueler.
“This win will move the Jagged X a few
points closer to our third championship. Our
RANGER RZR S keeps proving over-and-over just
how great these Polaris products really are.”
