Jeff Kincaid Motorsports

Unfortunately, the rolling in the title of today's news isn't the type we like to hear about.
Jeff started Sunday's race in the 6th position. He came out charging and worked his way up into the 3rd position by the time the mandatory caution came out. Jeff instantly worked his way past Casey Currie to take away the 2nd spot and was ready to chase down Marty Hart for the lead.
However, with only 4 laps to go Jeff's truck got squirrely in the whoops section before Devil's leap. He ended up getting into some loose dirt, which caused him to roll over and get a flat tire. Jeff was able to get into the pits and change the flat and he finished 15th.
When the official points standings are out, they will be posted. Unofficially, Marty Hart is in the lead and Jeff is in 2nd or 3rd.

Jeff Kincaid Motorsports headed back west after winning the WSORR Pro-Light Championship last race weekend in hometown Crandon, WI. With the 2nd spot on the starting grid, Jeff had only to pass one racer to gain the lead. On the start Jeff instantly jumped out to the lead, but a wreck on the track caused there to be a full race restart. Jeff was still sitting in the number two spot on the start and when the race restarted Jeff pulled the same maneuver to burst ahead with the hole shot.
Starting the weekend, Jeff was tied with Marty Hart for 3rd place in the points standings, 18 points behind leader Rob Naughton. Jeff held his first place line and lead at the mandatory caution lap. This put Jeff ahead of Hart by 5 points as Hart was in 3rd place at the caution.
The caution didn't help out any of Jeff's competitors enough for him to get passed as he raced a perfect race, leading start to finish. Marty Hart finished 2nd and Chad Hord worked his way up to 3rd, putting three Midwest racers on the podium in the West coast CORR series.
Jeff now has the points championship lead. With a good finish on Sunday, he should be able to leave California ahead once again.

Six-Time Pro-Light Champion

Sunday at Crandon International Off-Road Raceway marked the last race of the 2008 WSORR season. Jeff only needed to complete one lap to become the 2008 Pro-Light points champion. Jeff wasn't content with just finishing one lap however, as Jeff raced to his full potential from start to finish. Jeff came out of the gates charging hard and left Potawatomi Turn 1 with the hole shot. Jeff took his early lead and made it a huge lead within three laps. Jeff didn't let up the whole race as he wanted to show just what he could do with his Traxxas Potawatomi BFGoodrich Toyota Pro-Light Pickup. No other racer was even close to catching Jeff the entire race as Jeff cruised into the last lap with a gargantuan lead. After the General Tire Jump, Jeff "took 'er easy" as he took it all in and slowly crossed the finish line for the final time in the 2008 WSORR season yet again in 1st place, this time also with the 2008 WSORR Pro-Light points championship.
Jeff said afterwards, "This may have been the last time you'll see me in a Pro-Light so I wanted to show you all what we can do."

One Lap to Go for Championship

Yesterday's race started out well for Jeff as his Traxxas Potawatomi BFGoodrich Toyota pulled the hole shot coming out of Potawatomi Turn Number 1. Jeff never looked back and led the first few laps by a good margin. The truck started sputtering on every corner for about three laps and Jeff knew he had a problem.
Chad Hord took advantage of this as he passed Jeff for the lead on the front straightaway. Jeff wasn't able to complete that lap. The sputtering of the engine was caused by a fuel line that had broken loose and caused the truck to eventually run out of fuel, ending Jeff's race. Hord went on to win the World Championship Ring.
Even with the fuel line problem, Jeff finished ahead of Steve Federico, who is second in the points race right now. Jeff is leading by 21 points going into Sunday and needs to complete 1 lap to become the 2008 WSORR Pro-Light Points Champion.

As the sun began to set, anticipation began to rise, as the competitors for the "shootout" race lined up at the starting line. They stood near their trucks, preparing for the intense race which was about to be run on Crandon's "Super Short" track, in which the back turn on the track was just around Parson's Pond.

The sun set further and the green flag was let go. The famous Crandon International land rush start went into Potawatomi turn number 1 with Jeff flying just along the outside of Steve Federico, both vying for Kincaid Federico Hord Vy for Position
