A message from Austin Kimbrell on this past opening weekend of the 2012 Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series -
"What a crazy weekend!! I couldn't ask for anything more!! We built a brand new Pro Lite and it come out of the box perfect!!!! Got the big 1st place on Saturday and was running 3rd on Sunday then got taken out, but worked my way back up to 4th to finish so can't complain! Thank you every one who was out there and also helped! Kimbrell Racing, XMF, and Toyo Tires -couldn't do it without you guys!!!! Looks like we will be fighting for a championship this year... look out!!
We are in the final week of preparations for the opening weekend of the 2012 Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Season! There is a great deal of work to do yet to get the truck and all of the off road gear in top notch condition, but we are excited and ready to launch into this new season.
A beefed up Pro-Lite truck with an 8 cylinder V8 transmission should keep our truck out in front and allow Austin to finish strong without mechanical difficulties. Our team is working hard to give him every advantage we can. With another year of driving under his belt, Austin will be in great shape to be on the podium every time.
We sure hope you can make it to the opening weekend March 30 and April 1st out at Firebird Raceway - it makes all the difference when our fans are in the stands! Also, a special shout out once again to our sponsor, Kimbrell Electric, a commercial electrical contractor business that has been serving businesses in Phoenix for over a decade.

We are tackling the 2012 season head on, focused on the Pro Lite Unlimited category. The Pro Lite has had a major overhaul, with a serious upgrade from a 4 cylinder to 8 cylinder V8 automatic transmission. We think this gives us one of the top off road trucks out there, and plan on finishing every race with very few mechanical problems.
Couple that with another successful year of experience under Austin's belt, we believe this is going to be a powerhouse season for Austin Kimbrell and Kimbrell Racing. As mentioned in previous posts, Austin and the Kimbrell Racing team are working hard to be ready, with now just a little over a month to go before opening rounds 1 and 2 at Firebird International Raceway ( @FirebirdRaceway ) on March 31st and April 1st.

Final results are in for the 2011 Lucas Off Road Racing Series. We are extremely proud of Austin in his first year of racing in the Super Lite category, as he finished in fourth place in total points, despite all of the truck troubles in the beginning of the season that took him out of races. In the Pro Lite Unlimited, Austin finished 11th and again, we are very pleased given the mechanical difficulties we experienced early on. As you know, Austin ended the season with a strong first place win in the final championship round in the Super Lite.
We are very excited about the 2012 season, and are focused on coming out strong. We believe in Austin, he is an aggressive driver with a winner's attitude with another year of experience under his belt. To solve our mechanical problems and give Austin his best shot at the podium, we are swapping out from a 4 cylinder to an 8 cylinder V8 automatic transmission to enable us to finish more races right out in front!
