Hey again guys and gals:D In case none of you were aware of it, Banks Power is the official power system of the Best In The Desert Racing Association www.bitd.com (http://www.bitd.com) . This will mark the second year we have sponsored this series and will be the first year of the Banks Power 250 desert race! Below is a recap of the 2009 race series, videos are thanks to our friends at Tuba Art films:D

2009 Parker 425:
This race had something not many desert racers are used to....rain, and LOTS of it. At one point part of the race course had to be closed down and re-routed because the race trucks kept getting stuck up to their windshields in mud!

2009 Terrible's 250 at Primm:
This race was a blast! In a slightly different format with two 250 miles races in the same day:

2009 Vegas to Reno:
This is the race that will clearly seperate the men from the boys! No cry babies allowed!! This monster of an event covered 1000 miles of Nevada desert, over 3 day in AUGUST! I personally was running pit 2 the first two days and pit 3 on the third. Nothing like sleeping in the bed of truck in the middle of the desert:D

2009 Bilek Silver State 300:

2009 Henderson Fabtech Desert Classic:
Last race of the year! This is a double points race, which means if you're in the running for the class win....you'd better finish!!
