Jeff Kincaid scores Championship Title for TRAXXAS!
Sixth WSORR Championship win for Jeff Kincaid
Repeat of Decision at Sundown - August 30, 2008
Friday, August 29, was the 2nd of the now to be annual WSORR Pro-Light Decision at Sundown held in historic Crandon, WI. The stage was set for Jeff to try to defend his title, with some of the best Pro-Light racers in the country as competitors in the race. As the sun began to set, anticipation began to rise, as the competitors for the "shootout" race lined up at the starting line. They stood near their trucks, preparing for the intense race which was about to be run on Crandon's "Super Short" track, in which the back turn on the track was just around Parson's Pond. The sun set further and the green flag was let go. The famous Crandon International land rush start went into Potawatomi turn number 1 with Jeff flying just along the outside of Steve Federico, both vying for the hole shot. Jeff came away with it, but Federico was determined to stay close behind. Federico stayed with Jeff for about 4 laps, when Chad Hord worked his way around Federico. Although Chad Hord pushed hard, Jeff never looked back. Jeff ran a flawless race to the end and came away with the 2nd win in a row of the Decision at Sundown. Jeff is the only winner of the Decision at Sundown.
One Lap to Go for Championship - August 31, 2008
Yesterday's race started out well for Jeff as his Traxxas Potawatomi BFGoodrich Toyota pulled the hole shot coming out of Potawatomi Turn Number 1. Jeff never looked back and led the first few laps by a good margin. The truck started sputtering on every corner for about three laps and Jeff knew he had a problem. Chad Hord took advantage of this as he passed Jeff for the lead on the front straightaway. Jeff wasn't able to complete that lap. The sputtering of the engine was caused by a fuel line that had broken loose and caused the truck to eventually run out of fuel, ending Jeff's race. Hord went on to win the World Championship Ring. Even with the fuel line problem, Jeff finished ahead of Steve Federico, who is second in the points race right now. Jeff is leading by 21 points going into Sunday and needs to complete 1 lap to become the 2008 WSORR Pro-Light Points Champion.
Six-Time Pro-Light Champion - September 1, 2008
Sunday at Crandon International Off-Road Raceway marked the last race of the 2008 WSORR season. Jeff only needed to complete one lap to become the 2008 Pro-Light points champion. Jeff wasn't content with just finishing one lap however, as Jeff raced to his full potential from start to finish. Jeff came out of the gates charging hard and left Potawatomi Turn 1 with the hole shot. Jeff took his early lead and made it a huge lead within three laps. Jeff didn't let up the whole race as he wanted to show just what he could do with his Traxxas Potawatomi BFGoodrich Toyota Pro-Light Pickup. No other racer was even close to catching Jeff the entire race as Jeff cruised into the last lap with a gargantuan lead. After the General Tire Jump, Jeff "took 'er easy" as he took it all in and slowly crossed the finish line for the final time in the 2008 WSORR season yet again in 1st place, this time also with the 2008 WSORR Pro-Light points championship. Jeff said afterwards, "This may have been the last time you'll see me in a Pro-Light so I wanted to show you all what we can do."
