Supercross.com joins with TORC (The Off-Road Championship)

Traxxas TORC series, presented by Amsoil, is an off road truck racing series. Supercross.com is pleased to announce it has joined with TORC in 2012 and beyond. More info will be coming.

We did want to share a few things now. First, to celebrate this new relationship, Supercross.com is pleased to offer you a $5 discount coupon for this weekend's TORC event at Red Bud Track and Trail in Michigan. (Yes, the same place where the AMA National Motocros race is!) Print out the coupon below and you get five bucks off!

President Kevin Miller of USAC (United States Auto Club) says "Traxxas TORC is one of the most exhilarating and exciting race series in the world. We are extremely proud to be associated with TORC, and that relationship fits right into what we also do with Silver Crown, Sprint Car, Midget, Ignite, and .25 Midgets."

Matt Cook, principal of Supercross.com media platforms, and driver/owner of the Supercross.com truck teams says “We are pleased to move forward in this new relationship with Traxxas TORC. The Supercross.com Off Road Truck Race Team is going to be racing at all the TORC events this season, and will be set-up to sell merchandise, interact and educate fans, and share all the excitement of what we do with the fans."

The Traxxas TORC Series - The Off Road Championship, is the fastest, most punishing short course racing series on the planet. TORC events are packed with flag-to-flag fender banging as drivers push the limits over whoop and jump filled natural terrain racetracks. Off-road racing fans come from far and wide to experience this most challenging form of high-octane competition and once they taste TORC for the first time they'll be hooked for life. Rick Johnson is the defending Pro 4 class champion. You'll see the 2012 schedule below, along with TV info.

Here is a nice highlight video of what TORC is all about
