Three
More Added to Crandon Record Book
CRANDON, W\I - Crandon International Off-Road Raceway announced that
three off-road racers have been added to its record book after
sterling performances at the 2007 Forest County Potawatomi Brush Run
Races this past June 23-24. (See attachment.).
Headlining the list is “Crandon Carl” Renezeder who achieved his
second Potawatomi Chairman’s Cup win in his Lucas Oil BF Goodrich
SoBe Nissan Titan 4x4. Renezeder, (Newport Beach, Calif.),
previously won the Cup in 2004.
Renezeder is all over the Crandon record books as he also holds the
overall fastest lap time ever completed at the famous off-road
track, the record for the fastest lap by a PRO 2WD race truck, and
he is also a winner of the 2003 BorgWarner Shootout. He was pole
winner for BorgWarner Shootout’s in 2001 and 2003.
Two well-known PRO Light Pickup racers broke records over the race
weekend for fastest lap and also fastest race of all-time in the
class. Chad Hord (Felch, Mich.) broke the fastest lap record set
last year by Robert Naughton (1:33.555) by spinning a quick time of
1.32.927 over Crandon’s wide open throttle 1.5 mile circuit in his
Boss Plows Kumho Lucas Oil Nissan Frontier.
Not to be outdone, fellow PRO Light Pickup competitor Jeff Kincaid
set the record for the fastest PRO Light Pickup race of all-time at
the track posting a time of 14:10.38 in his Forest County Potawatomi
BF Goodrich Fox Toyota Tacoma. Kincaid (Argonne, Wisc.) broke the
class record set by Rodrigo Ampudia at last year’s BorgWarner World
Championship Off-Road Races.
