Team AMSOIL Offshore Wins National Championship

Team AMSOIL Offshore competed in the SBI Clearwater Super Boat National Championship races last weekend in Clearwater, Fla.

Bob Teague and driver Mike Defrees knew it would be a challengeas rough seas engulfed the 4.5 mile race course in the Gulf of Mexico.

Team AMSOIL took the early lead down the first straight-away and increased their lead steadily during the race. The Team AMSOIL number 77 Skater performed perfectly in good balance carrying good speeds over the rough and sloppy seas. Team Stihl, in their 388 Skater, ran in a strong second place position the entire race. Team AMSOIL finished the 80-mile race with the second overall fastest time of all classes, only 47 seconds behind the supercharged Superboat Unlimited Class winner.

Next stop for AMSOIL team is the OPA AMSOIL/GEICO Thunder on the Gulf World Championships in Orange Beach, Alabama on October 13-17.

Until then, we'll see you at the races,
