Jerry came in from the first lap a little later than expected and later explained that he got lost due to some missing ribbons on the back end of the course. Black picked up the pace and made up some time on his next lap before passing it to Jim LaTendresse. Jerry Black takes over and the Team NEO Honda gets a refill. Jim took off and rode hard despite possibly fracturing his shoulder after clipping a tree on a turn. The fast laps kept the team out front until it was once again time for Ward to take the helm. Ward closed out the race and took the 40+ Expert class checkers for Team NEO. Though the battle between 1st and 2nd place was a close one, Gordon managed to pull away for the win by more than a minute. As the checkered flag flew Gordon, Black and LaTendresse claimed the 40+ Expert Class victory and finished 6th Overall out of more than 60 teams.

Lazer Star Lights rolled into Las Vegas, NV last week ready to take on the legendary Mint 400. This years Great American Off-Road Race, now a part of the Best in the Desert Racing Series, saw an incredibly high attrition rate as the 100-mile loop that began the day as a race course transformed into a wasteland of carnage with each passing vehicle.

Lazer Star Lights was set up in contingency for pre-race festivities. Murray Racing As the sun came up Saturday morning, more than 50 UTVs crawled to the start line ready to tackle two laps on the 100-mile course. Derek Murray and his co-driver Monty Aldrich started out in 31st place in their Lazer Star equipped Can-Am Maverick. Over the course of the next 100+ miles, they fought their way up through the pack, making use of their bumper-mounted Lazer Star red and blue LED light bar and 50 roof-mounted bar in the process.

Murray Racing put their Lazer Star Lights to use at Mint. UTVs are noisy machines, and a lot of times drivers cant hear other cars coming up behind them, Derek said after the race. We couldnt afford to get stuck behind people and lose time, so a flick of our Lazer Star Lights would warn drivers up ahead and help us make passes. 

Derek Murray and co-driver Monty Aldrich finished 5th in the UTV race. The technique worked, as Murray and Aldrich worked up to as high as 2nd place at one point, despite losing their brakes on the first lap. With about 40 miles to go Team Murray lost a belt, dropping them back to 7th place as they made some quick repairs. Murray managed to get two of those spots back, crossing the line in 5th place. Matt Lovell Racing With the morning races out of the way it was time for the trophy trucks to hit the course in the afternoon. Matt Lovell was coming off a disappointing run in the Parker 425, where mechanical issues forced him out of the race. After several weeks of repairs, testing and preparation, Matt set his strategy in motion. Without the luxury of a pre-running weekend, Lovell would use the first lap as a chance to feel out the course before charging ahead. While swapping places with fellow 7200-class competitors it became immediately evident that the course was in rough shape, with double-track ruts so deep they were nearly impassible on his 35 tires.

Matt Lovell pushed the Lazer Star Lights #7244 truck through the rough Mint course. Ruts were not the only obstacles among the desert terrain. Rocks ranging from baseball to boulder sized littered the course, taking out trucks left and right. The Lazer Star Lights / Matt Lovell Racing #7244 truck took a beating, at one point suffering a radiator leak due to debris. Matt and his co-pilot Paul Baker managed to repair the leak, but the MLR crew had to replace the radiator in the pit.

Matt and his crew worked through some mechanical issues throughout the race. At this point we were losing light and we were excited to use our Lazer Star Light setup to charge hard and make up some ground, Lovell reported. As they headed towards the main pit to finish up the second lap, however, they sprung another radiator leak. The crew fixed it in the pit and the boys headed out for the third lap, but with the course so chewed up and the radiator problems continuing, Matt limped the truck back to the pit and called it a day. 

Lovell will prepare for the BITD Silverstate 300. Murray Racing and Matt Lovell Racing will be busy over the next several weeks prepping their Lazer Star Lights equipped rigs and testing for the next desert race on the calendar: the BITD Silverstate 300, scheduled for May 2-4.

Then on Saturday, March 15th watch as racers embark on the 400-mile road to glory.

Lazer Star Lights will be represented in the Mint 400 by Matt Lovell and Paul Baker in the Lazer Star Lights/Matt Lovell Racing #7244 mid-sized trophy truck. After being forced out of the Parker 425 with some mechanical issues, Matt and his crew have worked incredibly hard to prep the truck for this legendary race that will test the strength and endurance of racer and machine alike.

Representing Lazer Star Lights in the UTV class will be Team Murray Racing. Fresh off a 2nd place podium finish at the SCORE San Felipe 250, Derek Murray and his crew will put their Lazer Star equipped Can-Am Maverick to the test as they traverse the 100-mile loop four times.

Lazer Star Lights sponsored driver Derek Murray piloted his Team Murray Racing Can-Am Maverick to a 2nd place podium finish at the 28th Annual Tecate SCORE San Felipe 250 this past weekend.

 With championship hopes high, Team Murray pulled their Lazer Star Lights equipped Can-Am Maverick to the line to kick off the 2014 SCORE World Desert Championship. The course would take racers in a 219-mile loop through Baja Mexico, starting and finishing in the coastal town of San Felipe. The UTV start was pushed back a couple of hours, a factor that would actually play in Team Murrays favor later in the race. Team Murray ran with the leaders early on, but dropped back to mid-pack with a mechanical problem. After fixing the issue it was time to make up ground, and as the sun went down and conditions worsened their Lazer Star Lights gave them an edge over the competition.  A lighting setup like ours is a big confidence boost, which alone goes a long way when racing, said Derek Murray. At night, in the roughest section of the course, we were able to close down and make up some positions thanks in large part to our Lazer Star Lights. As competitors slowed down late in the race, Team Murray cut through the pack and returned to town with a 2nd place finish. They joined fellow Can-Am pilot Marc Burnett on the podium, who notched the first SCORE series victory and Baja win for Can-Am. Team Murray, comprised of Derek Murray, Steve Amarine and Monty Aldrich, was without Jason Murray, who is recovering from finger surgery following an incident at King of the Hammers. He is undergoing physical therapy and hopes to return to racing later this year. The team is already busy preparing for The Great American Off-Road Race, the Best in the Desert Mint 400. Catch up with Team Murray on Facebook here, and follow the action with Lazer Star Lights on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. Learn more about Lazer Star Lights at LazerStarLights.com.
