 Short-Course Off-Road Racing is an extremely competitive form of racing that pits 800+horsepower 2 and 4-wheel drive trucks in fender-to-fender competition on closed-course off-road arenas. The tracks are built with banked berms, punishing whoops sections, and giant full-throttle sweepers that set the stage for extreme action and intense racing. The trucks are equipped with 18 inches of suspension travel in the front and 20 inches of travel in the rear that is damped by sophisticated bypass shocks. They’ll need every bit of that suspension travel as they fly full-speed off the jumps and carve their way through the rutted track surface. The premier sanctioning bodies for this type of racing are CORR™ (Championship Off Road Racing™) and WSORR (World Series of Off-Road Racing). Traxxas will be running the full season of CORR and a partial season of WSORR. The eight CORR races throughout the year are nationally televised in high-definition with 12 hours of programming on NBC and 16 hours on SPEED.  The racing action goes LIVE for 6 shows on SPEED and 3 shows on NBC. The Traxxas trucks will race in the Pro 2®, Pro 4™, and Pro Lite classes. The Traxxas Pro Lite truck is piloted by 5-time national Pro Lite champion Jeff Kincaid. With Traxxas’ involvement in full size off-road racing, the engineering for the radio controlled and the race trucks will begin to converge to advance both sports.
