BILSTEIN 3:41 P.M. RACE UPDATE/TROPHY TRUCKS
Pit B-3:40 Scott Steinberger brought the #7 Trophy Truck into Pit B and the professional pit crew changed out four tires and topped off the fuel as if they were a NASCAR crew. Scotty exited the trophy truck and turned the truck over to Jesse Jones and Barry Beacham. The driver change and pit service was less than 45 seconds. Scott told ORC's Homey at Pit B, "It was great to pass the Herbst boys in the state of Nevada." Scott said they passed them on the dry lake bed and he put the hammer down to the #7 Trophy Truck.
In other action, Team Riviera hit the Pit B road crossing at maximum speeds and flew over the road as if they were preparing for takeoff. The attrition of the race is beginning to take it's toll on the long list of Class 1's and Trophy Trucks.
Leading in Class 1 is Troy Herbst in the Herbst Truggy while being chased by Dale Ebberts and Ernie Castro Jr. who were on the gas as they followed the Trophy Trucks through Pit B.

BILSTEIN 1:00 P.M. RACE UPDATE
Primm, Nevada: The first race here at the SCORE-International PRIMM 300 was incredible as Brian Ickler driving a SCORELITE series race vehicle captured the overall amongst a wide range of champion desert racers in Class 10. With less suspension than the Class 10 vehicles, Ickler dominated the field and took the win wire-to-wire. And now the featured race including Trophy Trucks and Class 1's is underway. ORC is at Pit B awaiting the arrival of the first vehicles. Stay tuned.
