Monster Energy/Pflueger Racing Trophy Truck Tuned & Ready
Driver Alan Pflueger plans on rebounding in a big way after disappointing finish at
recent Baja 500 in this short course SCORE-International event.
CORONA, Calif., (July 11, 2007) * Having scored the runner-up position at the second
annual Las Vegas Terrible’s Cup to Monster Energy’s Robby Gordon last year, Monster
Energy/Pflueger Racing’s Alan Pflueger is pumped in a big way to get back after it here
next week at Terrible’s Cup III. And, Pflueger added, pretty much everybody in the hotly
contested Trophy Truck class will stop at nothing to reach the top of the Terrible’s
podium. “Burnt rubber and Fiberglass flying,” said Pflueger on the competition level.
“This should be an exciting one to watch because most of the desert guys don’t have
much short course experience.”
The July 19-21 SCORE-International event opens with Thursday’s $10,000 Terrible’s
Trophy Truck Pit Crew Challenge on Vegas’ Fremont Street, then busts out into the
desert for practice and racing * culminating with Saturday’s premier Trophy Truck class.
“The weekend of Terrible’s Cup is action packed,” said Pflueger Racing’s Mike Emerson.
“We plan on doing real well in the pit crew competition, then carrying that momentum
into the race Friday and then again on Saturday.” Emerson said that some adjustments
have been made to the Monster Energy-backed Pflueger Racing Trophy Truck, adding:
“We changed some suspension and chassis stuff and added a little more motor.”
The points chase for the top spot in the SCORE-International Trophy Truck division is
about as close as it’s ever been with only 13 points separating 1st (BJ Baldwin) and 4th
(Pflueger) in the overall points chase as the popular off road series enters the midway
point of the season with the Terrible’s Cup. “There’s more trucks entered this year and
we’re looking forward to the added competition and making up some points in the title
chase,” added Pflueger. “Our mid- engine truck works very well on this style of track
(short course).”
In addition to the pit crew competition and the race, the Monster Energy/Pflueger Racing
team will be all over Vegas, making numerous promotional and autograph signing
appearances.
Make sure to keep an eye out for the Monster Energy sampling truck that will also be
cruising around Vegas all weekend handing out ice cold Monster Energy Drinks.
Next up for Pflueger, RJ and the rest of the Monster Energy/Pflueger Racing Team is the
July 19-21 Las Vegas Terrible’s Cup III.
Monster Energy supports the sport. Be it road racing, MX, supermoto, off-road, FMX,
skate, MTB, off-road, surf, snow, BMX * name it * the athletes are rockin’ Monster
Energy more than anything these days. Check out all the types * Original Monster
Energy, Monster Lo-Carb, Monster Assault, Monster Khaos, the new Monster/fruit juice
hybrid called “M-80” and the ground-breaking Java Monster premium coffee & cream
supercharged with our Monster Energy blend.

TSCO “Vegas to Reno”
The Longest Off-Road Race in the United States You can still hear and feel the pounding hooves slamming uneven landscape… soon to be overcome by the pounding of thousands of horsepower. In the late 19th century, 183 extremely brave men (some as young as 11) on ponies challenged the terrain and elements the racers in this year’s Vegas to Reno race are attempting to conquer. Running over some of the same trails that the original Pony Express ran from 1860 to 1861, this year’s TSCO “Vegas to Reno” – certifiably the Longest Off-Road Race in the United States, is creating tremendous excitement among the off-road racing community. Casey Folks, Director of the Best in the Desert series, said, “Our momentum is continuing to grow. 2007 has been a great year for Best In The Desert and the sport of off road desert racing. We are excited that the TSCO “Vegas to Reno” event, our flag-ship race, will carry on that momentum. Not only is this going to be a big event but it’s also the 11th running of TSCO “Vegas to Reno.” This race is open to all Best In The Desert classes – cars, trucks, UTVs, quads and motorcycles. And, we expect over 300 entries.” While the Pony Express changed horses every 10-15 miles, and had 150 stops along the nearly 2,000 mile route; this year’s TSCO “Vegas to Reno” race features 15 gas stops, and spreads out over 570 miles. Contingency is set for Thursday, August 23rd at the South Point Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada. The race will start in Johnnie, Nevada early Friday morning, the 24th of August. The TSCO “Vegas to Reno” race takes competitors from the high desert floor at 2,500 feet elevation to mountainous heights of over 9,000 feet, forcing competitors to adjust to the changing pressures, and endure extreme hot and cold temperature variations. Speeds over 100 MPH are achieved on the dry lake bed portions of the route; and then racers are forced to fight their way through narrow canyons and twisty sand washes – some of the toughest terrain in the world. Time Trials for the top 20 starting positions will be Thursday morning, August 23rd in Las Vegas. Class 1400 Trick Trucks, and Class 1500 Unlimited Cars only. The traditional BBQ and an after-race party will be at the awards presentation in Reno on Saturday, August 25th at the new Herbst Sands Regency Hotel. Off-Road Racing’s Best-Run Series … Best In the Desert! Further information available from: www.bitd.combitd@lasvegas.net (702) 457-5775
