Douglas Motorsports team recently tested both trucks at Crandon and Chad Hord quickly proved the transition to a full-size 4x4 race truck with 900 horsepower will not be a problem. Team owner Scott Douglas was very pleased with his performance and Chad gained valuable seat time in the AMSOIL F-150.
“Chad Hord is very deserving of this opportunity to drive one of the AMSOIL Ford F-150s from Douglas Motorsports,” said Jeremy Meyer, AMSOIL Race Program Manager. “His program is top notch and he has the ability to compete with the best drivers in the sport at Crandon. AMSOIL has two cup winners on its Super Team in Mike Oberg (Baldwin Memorial Cup) and Scott Douglas (two-time BorgWarner Cup) and Chad has the talent to bring home a third. The
Pro 4x4 class just got a lot deeper with Chad Hord running for this year's prize and the world will get to see it live on ABC.”Hord will also race his Pro Light 2wd truck at Crandon. Hord is currently leading the points in Pro Light. Oberg will pilot his Pro 2wd on the same track that he finished second on during the Chairman's Cup race this past June.
For those who can’t make it to Crandon’s huge 40th Anniversary celebration, the 2009 BorgWarner Cup race will air live on ABC Sunday September 6th at 3:00 pm Central Standard Time.
Until then, we'll see you at the races.
