Rob MacCachren DOMINATES Lucas Oil SERIES WINNING Pro 2 Championship with 9 Victories in 2010 as Final Weekend GOES Off Big at Firebird International Raceway

Las Vegas Racer Celebrates 20th Season Championships & 179 racing wins in his 28 year racing career!

robmac Las Vegas, Nevada – World class off road racing champion, Rob MacCachren, capped off his 2010 Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series with fireworks as he put the exclamation point on a successful season of short course racing. Having clinched the 2010 Pro 2 Championship in Round 14 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway in November, Rob MacCachren led his ROCKSTAR Energy/BFGoodrich Tires/Mastercraft Safety backed team into a new track at the Firebird International Raceway. MacCachren told the crew it was just like usual, “Let’s go win some races.” With the 2010 Lucas Oil Challenge Cup looming the day after the season finale, it would have been easy for the champion to throttle back and save it all for the Challenge Cup race. That is not, however, in the makeup of Rob MacCachren.

Well regarded for racing at the top levels in each discipline over his 28-year career, MacCachren prepared and dissected the newly established Firebird International Raceway race track like he does every weekend.

By the end of Saturday’s main event, Rob MacCachren stood on the podium’s top step adding another dominating victory to an already championship season.

MacCachren later commented, “We’re here to win races and win championships and that’s really what it’s all about. We will be racing here next year and this was the perfect opportunity to learn everything we can about this track. I’m very proud of the team and the commitment all of our sponsors made in 2010 and it showed with a successful march to a championship. Thanks to everyone for the continued support all season long.”
