I want to congragulate Kevin and Don Knight (Good Knight Racing) and there crew for there first win in off-road at the MORE Freedom 250. This father,son has busted there humps to get to this point over the past years. They have built this truck from the ground up in there driveway. And as this class has evolved over the past year, they have rolled with the punches to keep up and rebuild there truck to be competitive every race, and on a show string budget. DEA Clothing and I are honored that we could be apart of the win and team for the past year. Crongrats and Thanks

Congratulations on the win. That was a tough course. We started 13th, passed 4 stopped trucks in the first five minutes, then got our own flat and lost a lug nut in the silt. Probably would have overheated if we didn't have the flat, because our temps went up REAL fast. GPS decided to shut off a few times, a BUNCH of other racers on the same channel made comm almost impossible, then another tire went flat, and on the third lap just past Hodge at about 60mph the right spindle broke and turned the truck into a plow. The tire & brake caliper, however, wouldn't admit defeat for another quarter of a mile.
This is our first season racing M.O.R.E. 1400 and there is good competition.
We weren't without trouble on this one;
Friday, blew the torque converter prerunning, rebuilt friday installed sat just in time for start.
1st and 2nd lap clean
3rd lap, busted radiator hose and flat
4th lap, broken motor mount and belt trouble
5th lap 2 flats, timed out but finished 5 laps for 6th place!
We are enjoying racing with all the other 1400 guys!
