Bryce MENZIES SLATED for Double Duty at Best in the Desert’s ‘BILEK 300’ Next Week in Class 10 and Jesse Jones Trophy Truck

PRESS RELEASE:

Las Vegas, Nevada, (September 18, 2009) Bryce Menzies, the Las Vegas off road racing phenom, is slated for DOUBLE DUTY in next weekend’s Best in the Desert BILEK 300 Desert race to be held in the desert surrounding Mesquite, Nevada. This event features some of the most beautiful terrain in all of Nevada, as man and machine will be put to the test over 321-miles of daunting Nevada desert.

The 22-year old off road racer will pilot both the Menzies Motorsports single-seat Class 10 car before switching and racing the second half of the race in the 800 horsepower Geiser Brothers built Trophy Truck owned and raced by Jesse Jones.

Bryce Menzies has had an incredible start in his desert racing career after a grand victory at this year’s longest race in the United States, Best in the Desert’s Vegas to Reno 1000-mile race. Bryce shared time behind the wheel of the Menzies Motorsports single-seat Class 10 racecar with Larry Job and earned the victory after 3-days of incredible challenges that faced the toughest off road desert racers in America.

“The Vegas to Reno race certainly helped guide Bryce to the next level. Racing day-to-day was good for the entire team and we’ve come a long way. Bryce really shined and had three perfect days of racing. I’m very proud to see him learn the important aspects of desert racing each and every race. Transitioning into a trophy truck is the next level and we’re moving that way,” said a smiling Steve Menzies.

Heading into the Best in the Desert’s BILEK 300 race, the young off road racer will join one of desert racing’s most veteran off road racers, Arizona’s Jesse Jones. It was only a few years ago that Jones captivated the entire world of off road racing when he was crowned the Best in the Desert Trophy Truck Champion.

Jesse Jones has long been a top contender in any race he’s entered. With the debut of his new Geiser Brothers built Trophy Truck, Jones is poised to climb back into the winner’s circle. Rick Geiser and his Geiser Brothers race crew will provide support for the combined Jones/Menzies race effort. Rick explained, “This might just be a perfect match for both Menzies and Jesse. Geiser Brothers is really happy to put these two teams together and I can’t wait to see what they can do in the dirt.”

In addition to racing in the desert, both Bryce Menzies and Jesse Jones have been racing in the Lucas Oil Off Road Series (short course) both racing in the Unlimited Pro 2 class.

Jesse explained, “Joining forces with Menzies Motorsports team is a great move for our team. I’m stoked that Geiser, Menzies and I could put something together for this race and hopefully turn it into something for the future. I’ve watched Bryce race and he’s definitely talented. I’m looking forward to putting this truck in the winner’s circle again.”

Menzies Motorsports brings with them to the Best in the Desert BILEK 300 race a host of sponsors, which continue to support them in both desert racing and short course racing. They include AHERN Rentals, BFGoodrich Tires, FOX Racing Shox, KMC Wheels, KARTEK and Super Clean.

Menzies Motorsports will be set up at the CasaBlanca Events center so please stop by and take a moment with both the drivers and crew at Menzies Motorsports. Please visit www.menziesmotorsports.com

A full field of off road racers will take to the track for the first time this season under the lights and in front of a packed house of Southern California off road racing fans.

I’m definitely going to be busy on the track racing three different classes, but in the long run it will give me more track time. We’ve got the motor issues worked out of the Unlimited Pro 2 truck. We lost two motors last time we were at Lake Elsinore and I’m looking forward to making up for some lost points in the Unlimited Pro 2 class,” said a smiling Bryce Menzies.

Team owner, Steve Menzies explained, “The opportunity came about for Bryce to race the Coyne Motorsports Unlimited Pro 4 race truck and the timing is just about right. We’re at the halfway mark of the 2009 season with eight races remaining this year.

Larry Job Doubles Victories in Menzies Motorsports Unlimited Buggy

Larry Job Doubles Victories in Menzies Motorsports Unlimited Buggy; Bryce Menzies Races to Front of Lucas Unlimited 2 Field before Engine Failure; Bryce Menzies Single Buggy Podium CAPS Blistering Weekend of Racing at Lucas Oil Off Road Series

Lucas Oil Off Road Series Rounds 7&8 to be held July 25-26 at Lake Elsinore Motorsports Complex in Southern California

Las Vegas, Nevada (July 1, 2009) America's hardcore off road racing fans braved triple digit temperatures that blistered the Lake Elsinore Motorsports Complex, cheering on the stars of the Lucas Oil Off Road Series. Racers battle in what some have described as the best short course racetrack designed in Southern California in many years. The wide open super fast race challenged drivers of all levels and featured massive jumps that tested the mettle of all the racers across the board.

The Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series rounds 5 and 6 of the 2009 season was held before the Southern California two-day combined crowd of 13,400 screaming fans at 1.0 purpose-built dirt raceway hewn at the edge of Lake Elsinore. Menzies Motorsports' "Big Red Machine" rolled out the Super Clean Unlimited 2 and the Menzies Limited Buggy for racer, Bryce menzies. Larry Job readied for duty in his Unlimited Buggy and joining the Menzies Motorsports race lineup for the first time in 2009 was action-sports television commentator, Cameron Steele.



Bryce Menzies, 22, is the son of team owner Steve Menzies. Bryce captured the 2007 CORR Rookie of the Year in Single Buggy (and season point champ), before he moved up into the Pro 2 class in the shortened 2008 CORR season. In 2009, he continues his reign of terror on America's short course off road racing.

Larry Job, another veteran Southern Nevada desert racer in his second full short-course season, was the Menzies Motorsports winning superstar throughout the entire weekend as victories on both days cemented a solid standing amount the season point's race enroute to a possible championship.

The No. 907 MasterCraft AlumiCraft-Honda was a rocket ship all weekend long, the Las Vegas business owner explained, "Racing with Menzies Motorsports and working with Steve is simply a joy. He is a logistical wizard and I have to thank him for his continued organizing efforts in allowing all of us to be part of the 'Big Red Machine.' We have a great race team and many thanks go out to my crew chief, Ralph Chadwick, for his flawless efforts and, of course, to my spotters Billy Goerke and Kevin Kroyer. Steve continues to find key people in order to get the job done. It makes my job driving easier, which allows me to focus on winning races. Our marketing partners continue to support the 'Big Red Machine' and we wouldn't be here without them. Thanks goes out to Super Clean, Ahern Rentals, and Kroyer Racing. For the first time this season I was able to bounce some race strategy off my new racing partner, Cameron Steele. It's great to have Cameron and his crew on the team and I look forward to a successful season in our buggy class."

Bryce Menzies, the Las Vegas young gun ran with the Unlimited 2 leaders during both days of racing action. However in the end, it was not meant to be, as the Unlimited 2 team suffered terminal engine failure in each race.

Bryce qualified his No. 7 Super Clean FORD F150 race truck in the third position during Friday's qualifying session and early on in Saturday's race he challenged the champion for position at the front of the field. But that hard racing ended up being quality seat time for the 2nd year professional off road truck racer, after succumbing to every racer's nightmare of engine failure in the midst of a great performance.

Bryce explained, "We struggled today with a mechanical issue in the engine and you can be sure I will be spending as much time as I can finding out why we had two engines go bad in the same weekend," said Menzies. "On a positive note, the 'Big Red Machine' has such knowledgeable people and fantastic marketing partners that we'll take this disappointing weekend in stride and come out swinging in the next two rounds of racing."

Joining the race action this year for Menzies Motorsports in SCORE Trophy Truck driver, Cameron Steele. The veteran desert racer was slated to join the team in 2008 for the final four races, but the series folded just as he was about to slide his helmet on. The San Clemente, California resident finished in the top ten in Sunday's Unlimited Buggy race after a disappointing performance on Saturday.

The vivacious TV personality commented, "Wow, seventh place just plain sucks, but we had a good time and realized that we can run with the leaders in the class right out of the gate. It for sure made the trail by fire much easier having the 'Big Red Machine' and it's extended family behind us. Steve and Bryce are always right there and Larry, who won both days, is like a brother We truly worked together like a couple of old buggy dorks. We had a flat while running in podium position, but we know why and it won't happen next time. We plan on double podiums for the red terrors at rounds 7 and 8!"

Menzies Motorsports team owner, Steve Menzies, continues to forge ahead with his dream and plan to create something special from his 'Big Red Machine.'

Steve commented, "This was a long hot tough weekend of racing. We've had these before and we'll have them again, but I'm glad this one is over. We experienced something with our motors this weekend that we never had before and we began looking into solutions while we were still at the track. Larry Job carried the flag for us this weekend with his back-to-back victories and we were glad to have Cameron Steele in one of our cars as well. We'll have these engine issues solved before our next rounds of racing, as we plan on testing in a couple of weeks. I have to thank our corporate partners who contine to support our racing endeavors. We've put together a great bunch of marketing partners this season and we're looking forward to a solit second half of the season."

The Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series boasts a very strong TV package with SPEED, featuring 30 hours of original programming during the 2nd, 3rd and 4th quarters of 2009. The final race of the year at Primm Motorsports Complex will be televised live on NBC Sports.

Cameron Steele to Join Menzies Motorsports

September 9, 2008

Desert racer Cameron Steele to become newest driver
For Menzies Motorsports in CORR Short Course Series

Veteran second-generation desert racer Steele set to join Menzies
Motorsports for 2009 CORR Series
And will be backup driver for this weekend’s 2008 CORR races at Chula Vista
International Raceway
LAS VEGAS—Popular second-generation desert racer/TV personality Cameron
Steele has been added to the Menzies Motorsports driver roster for the 2009
Championship Off-Road Racing Series (CORR), team owner Steve Menzies announced
today in Las Vegas.
Steele’s first official appearance with the team will be as a backup driver
this weekend at Rounds 11 and 12 of the 16-race CORR Series at the Chula
Vista International Raceway near San Diego.
Steele, San Clemente, Calif., will augment the existing six-driver, eight
vehicle team that currently leads the point standings in three of the four
classes it races in this season.
“We have said since the beginning of the season that we would continue to
look for ways to expand our team even more, not only with equipment and
vehicles, but personnel as well. The addition of Cameron Steele is a major step in
the direction we are headed for 2009,” said team owner Steve Menzies, a
prominent Las Vegas contractor and businessman. “We are having a very good season
so far and Cameron is the type of talented team player that we need to keep
our cohesive ‘Big Red Machine’ moving forward.”
Steele, who is also a noted ESPN action sports announcer and has been a
primary announcer of the X Games for 10 years, will be a backup driver this
weekend and a confirmed driver for next year for Menzies Motorsports. This
weekend he will be available to replace Menzies’ driver Brock Krahenbuhl in Single
Buggy if Krahenbuhl, who is Menzies son-in-law, needs to stay in Las Vegas
because his wife Heather is expected to give birth to the couple’s third child
any day.
“I have met a lot of people in my life, and I can honestly say that none are
nicer and more genuine than Steve Menzies,” said Steele, 40, who has raced
in as many as three classes in the Tecate SCORE Baja 1000 desert race. “I am
really, really looking forward to being a part of the amazing Menzies
Motorsports team and working with some very gifted drivers and crew members. On top
of all that, we are going to do what I always do in racing—have some fun.”
Steele, who has several desert race wins on his racing resume including
Class 1-2/1600 in the legendary Tecate SCORE Baja 1000, is one of the stars of
the elite SCORE Trophy-Truck division in his No. 16 Desert Assassins Cadillac
Escalade in the SCORE Desert Series. In the desert, Steele has raced trucks,
open-wheel cars, VW Baja Bugs and motorcycles.
Earlier this year, Steele and MacCachren teamed up to win a special race
just for Class 1-2/1600 vehicles (single or two-seat open-wheel desert race cars
with 1600cc Volkswagen engines).
The Single Buggy class in the CORR Series is very similar to the Class
1-2/1600 desert race car.
For the last two years, the SCORE International membership of over 2,000 has
voted Steele as the SCORE Person of the Year in honor of all he has one to
help promote the sport, both behind the wheel and behind the microphone.
Menzies Motorsports is based out of a state-of-the-art 31,000-square foot
race shop in southwest Las Vegas.
