Todd LeDuc Wins on
Toyo® Open Country M/T®
Tires
-
At
Chula Vista International
Raceway
-
-
CHULA VISTA, CALIFORNIA – Todd LeDuc,
driver of the ROCKSTAR / Toyo Tires Ford truck, won the Jason Baldwin
Memorial Cup Pro 2 Qualifier on Saturday during the
Championship Off-Road Racing™ weekend (September 29 & 30)
while competing on Toyo® Open
Country M/T® tires in Chula Vista, California. LeDuc was
quick all weekend, finishing third in the regular
Pro 2™ race on Saturday, and then running for the lead during
Sunday’s race until an equipment failure dashed his hopes for a repeat
win.

“We made changes to the engine to
make more power and our Toyo tires handled it with no problem,” said
LeDuc. “We were fast all weekend, and were able to lead the field by a
straightaway during our win.”
-
-
Also capturing the podium during the
weekend was Rick Huseman with his
Fabtech / Toyo Tires
Toyota Tundra truck competing in the
Pro 4™ class. Huseman
scored a second place finish during the Saturday race, and then backed
that up with another second place during the Jason Baldwin Memorial Cup
Pro 4 Qualifier on Sunday. Huseman is on a roll as he handed
Toyo their first
CORR
Pro 4 class victory
during the previous race weekend in
Antelope
Valley.

“We are excited to see the track
speed that Todd LeDuc had shown throughout the weekend and congratulate
him on his victory,” said Stan Chen, manager of events and motorsports,
Toyo Tire (U.S.A.) Corporation. “Both Todd LeDuc and Rick Huseman
demonstrated the performance provided by their Toyo Open Country M/T
tires.”
