Vildosola Racing tackles Glen Helen

Nearing the end of another spectacular season, Tavo Vildosola along with the shop are putting the final touches on the preparation and race plans for the #200 Toyota Tundra. They are preparing to go compete in one of the most important races this year: the Baja Protruck Cup II which will be held at the Glen Helen Raceway just outside of San Bernardino, CA.

The Baja Protruck Cup at Glen Helen marks the second time the Protruck’s will conclude their season at this challenging event. Vildosola Racing is wrapping up their third season in the ultra competitive Protruck class, following last years dramatic season finale with a victory which sealed up the 2006 Baja Protruck Championship, Tavo hopes to repeat.

Glen Helen is the sixth double points event this season, a season which once again saw the Baja Protrucks take on challenges from one of the highest peaks in the world to the beautiful deserts of Baja peninsula. Tavo Vildosola along side second year partner Bryan Freeman had a spectacular season, taking two out of the four off-roads events and asserting themselves well after a clear disadvantage at Pikes Peak. These results have propelled last years champions to lead the field once again coming into the season finale at Glen Helen.

“We have a twenty point lead over Rob Reinertson and a twenty-two point lead over Jason Voss, those are the only two competitors that have a shot at beating us in the championship. All we have to do is finish the race, no matter in what position, we can finish last and still take the championship home. Our race strategy will be dictated by my two closest competitors but since all we have to do is finish, a finish is considered completion of seventy-five percent of the total laps that the winning truck completes, last year we did close to forty laps, which makes a finish thirty laps. After thirty laps I will not care about the position of my closest competitors or anything, we are going to relentlessly attack the track for the last ten laps and try and bring a victory home along with the 2007 championship” stated Tavo.
