We'll Miss You Tyson

It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that we must bid farewell to Tyson Perez.  A great man that touched us all with his larger than life persona, skill and loyal friendship; he was taken all too soon in a tragic non-racing related accident.  We at XXX are better for knowing him, and have had the  honor to be a part of his life.  He will not be forgotten.

All of us at Triple X Race Co are sending our thoughts and prayers to his family and friends, as well as continued support for Travis Rilat and his family. Travis is being treated for his injuries at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle, WA. Further information is unavailable at this time.

A fund for Travis and his family and for Tyson has been set up at First State Bank of Mesquite, Texas. Tom Lorenz, the owner of Smiley's Racing is starting the fund. Supporters of Travis and Tyson worldwide are encouraged to contribute.

Bacon 3 Peats ASCS National, Leads Points

Prior to this season, only five drivers could lay a claim to winning three Lucas Oil ASCS National main events in row. That list has grown by one since the start of the year, as Team XXX driver Brady Bacon is fresh off winning three straight Lucas Oil ASCS National features in the Mike & Megan Eubanks #99 XXX. The win streak vaulted Brady to the top of the point standing in the nation’s premier 360 touring series.
b
Memorial Day weekend is where it all started for Brady, as he and the team hauled to Jetmore KS to compete in the Steve King Memorial at the Jetmore Motorplex. On the Saturday night prelim feature, Bacon made full use of his outside row one starting spot as he gunned into the initial lead. Brady weathered several cautions up until a lap 10 restart, after which he would lead the rest of the thirty lap main unchallenged en route to the victory. Bacon had a full straightaway advantage as he took the final flags. His Sunday night performance pushed Brady’s skill to its limits as both Tim Crawley and Jason Johnson gave him everything he could handle over the 30 lap A main. Brady was once again up to the task, deftly moving his Wesmar powered XXX through traffic and keeping both of his challengers off balance by altering his line lap by lap. When the final flags flew, it was Bacon once again standing triumphant and stretching his points lead. Fast forward to the following Saturday night…this time at I-30 Speedway in Little Rock AR, where Brady was the hunter instead of the hunted. After starting 4th, Brady worked his way forward, then moved into the lead in lapped traffic on the 13th lap to take his third main event victory in a row. Bacon continues to lead the Lucas Oil ASCS National Series in points as they head into the bulk of their summer schedule.

Haud Wires Knoxville, Podiums RCS

June has been a good month for the Carnahan Motorsports #R19 XXX, piloted by National Sprint Car Hall of Famer Jac Haudenschild. On Hall of Fame weekend, Jac set the tone for the whole month as on Friday, June 4th he led every lap at the historic Knoxville Raceway in Knoxville, IA to capture his second World of Outlaws feature win of the season. “…The car felt good anywhere (on the track) tonight”, said Jac in victory lane. “We have a good combination with this XXX car and Leonard Lee working on it and we have a great car owner in Lon Carnahan.” Some of Jac’s competitors agreed…”Jac and his crew did a great job tonight. I think the best car won tonight…” said Brian Brown who ran second.

After scrambling through a wet weekend in Dodge City KS, the R19 team went North to visit River Cities Speedway in Grand Forks ND. Once again, the R19 was up to the challenge, as Jac picked up the KSE Hard Charger award on Saturday night after racing from 13th to 2nd in the A main. Sunday’s show was a bit easier for the crew as Jac won his heat race, the picked off four cars in the dash to earn a 5th place starting position. Working his way forward in the main, Jac went wheel to wheel with Joey Saldana over the final seven circuits in an attempt to pick up his third feature victory of the season. Saldana would end up getting the best of the battle this day, but only narrowly as his final margin of victory was a mere .164 seconds.

Jac currently sits 7th in the World of Outlaws points standings as the midway point of the season nears. He is tied for third in main event wins and has the 5th most laps led in the series this year. He has also won the dash twice and the hard charger award once.

TNT & USAC Fields Fall to Ballou

Robert Ballou has been a man on a mission over the past two months of non-wing racing. On May 12th, Robert gave Team XXX a couple of firsts as he toppled the USAC National Sprint Series at Eldora Speedway. The Wednesday night feature event saw Robert put on another killer performance for his fans, as he topped Bryan Clauson and Levi Jones to give Team XXX our first win in the USAC National Sprint Series and our first win at the famous Ohio track all in one shot. After sending his motors back to noted powerplant builder Don Ott for a freshen up, Ballou attacked the ASCS Sprint Bandit TNT series as they resumed racing during the third week of June. After absolutely decimating the field for his fourth overall feature win of the year Friday night at Creek County Speedway in Sapulpa OK, Ballou grabbed win number five the next night at Lucas Oil Speedway in Wheatland MO after an epic battle with fellow Team XXX racer Brady Bacon. Robert’s win vaulted him to the top of the ASCS Sprint Bandit TNT points standings, a title he’s looking to win in the memory of his good friend Jesse Hockett. You can follow Robert’s racing on his personal website at www.balloumotorsports.com.

On September 27th 2009, Travis Rutz’ was seriously injured at Terra Haute Speedway in Indiana while competing with the All Star Circuit of Champions. After fighting for his life, Travis eventually healed to the point where he was able to go home to his native British Columbia.  He continues to mend and heal to this day. Triple X Race Co keeps Travis in our thoughts every day, as he was more than just a long time Team XXX racer… he is a great friend to everyone associated with XXX and local West Coast Racing. You can keep track of Trav’s progress on his personal website, www.travisrutz.com or leave a message for him on his guest book.

Wayne Johnson Wins In An XXX

Oklahoma City native Wayne Johnson added another notch to the victory column by racing to victory lane in Friday night’s 25-lap American Sprint Car Series Lone Star Region main event at Heart O’ Texas Speedway.

Taking the wheel of a second Brian Parker No. 9 entry, Johnson led all the way aboard the H&H Racing-powered Champion Dent Repair Triple-X for his 33rd career overall ASCS feature win.

Johnson took the checkered flag ahead of 2009 ASCS Lone Star points runner-up Brad Welborn, with reigning champion and current points leader Kevin Ramey taking the show position.

Kyle Miller enjoying wins & championships in his XXX sprint car

Eugene, Oregon's Kyle Miller is one of those racers who truly enjoy sprint car racing, no matter what happens on the race track. It's one of the most fun things one can do. It's probably even more fun when you win a lot of races and win a couple of track championships, which Miller has done after switching to the XXX chassis a few years ago. Now Miller is on track for another championship in 2009.

The wins started racking up in 2007 while Miller was racing limited sprints at his home track, Cottage Grove Speedway. After taking a number of checkered flags, Miller went on to capture his first championship that season, driving his dad Scott's No. 10 Springer-powered XXX. The 2008 season saw the 18-year-old race in a lot of 360 sprint car events. Four times did Miller cross the finish line first, including the season finale on September 27th to capture the 360 sprint car division championship at Cottage Grove Speedway. Again, Miller's championship run came in a XXX sprint car. In April of this year, Miller threw the limited motor back under the hood and he won again on April 18th.

Over the last couple of years, Miller, now 19, and his dad Scott have become two of the biggest proponents of Triple X components. Virtually everything on their cars are made by Triple X Race Co. Even if he only finishes second or third, Miller has often praised his car in post-race interviews.

"I love it. We use everything." Miller said about his XXX car and components earlier this season.

Once in a while also over the years, Miller has taken the wings off and tried his hand at non-wing racing. As it turned out, Miller loves it. In 2009, Miller decided he would join the new NorthWest Wingless Tour, which has already established itself as a premier tour in the Pacific Northwest. In five NWWT events so far this season, Miller set fast time in qualifying four times with his XXX car and four times he finished on the podium in the main event. In the race where he didn't finish Top 3, he was leading the main event when contact with another car broke his front suspension and ended his night.

After his strong finish in the April 25th opener that saw him come from the back twice to finish third, Miller said he was having so much fun that he now intended to run the entire schedule after originally being unsure. His decision to do so has paid off, as he is now the NWWT points leader.

Going into the July 18th event, Miller was second in the, inching closer to the top. Another runner up finish put Kyle in the lead, but only by two points. On August 15th, after setting fast time for the fourth time in five NWWT events, Miller took the lead midway through the 25-lap feature and didn't look back from there as he earned his first NorthWest Wingless Tour main event win and his his second overall in 2009.

Miller is now in the drivers seat in the chase for his third different championship in as many seasons driving a XXX sprint car. Triple X Race Components INC wishes Kyle the best of luck the rest of the season.
