TEAM AMSOIL OFFSHORE #77 SETS THE PACE AT THE POPRA LAKE HAVASU OFFSHORE GRAND PRIX

Team AMSOIL Offshore Racing just returned from the Pacific Offshore Powerboat Racing Association (POPRA) Lake Havasu Offshore Grand Prix in Lake Havasu, Arizona. This two-day race event took place on April 8 & 9, in conjunction with the 20th Annual Lake Havasu Boat Show, April 8-10. The racing was a welcome addition to Lake Havasu Marine Associationâ€™s boat show, and rounded out a full display of boats and performance accessories at the outdoor Windsor Beach venue.

The Team was able to get some testing time in on Thursday with Bob Teague on the throttles and substitute driver John Teague at the wheel. The wind on Thursday afternoon picked up to provide some rough seas and a very challenging experience during docking and craning the boat out of the water.

POPRA utilized the heat racing format for this yearâ€™s event, with two separate 6-lap heat races on Friday, and one final 12-lap heat on Saturday. Spectators were able to easily view the racing action from the shores of Windsor Beach, adjacent to the Havasu Boat Show.

The desert weather was inconsistent and unpredictable during the weekend with a mixture of cool temperatures, wind and a sudden thunderstorm. On Saturday, the race boats were underway on the course and had completed about one lap when a giant lightning bolt struck over the lake, causing a black flag condition. The boats immediately exited the course and tied up at the dock to wait until the conditions and visibility improved. About an hour later, the race was re-started and run until completion.

The Teamâ€™s Cat Lite competitors in the running were In The Red Racing and Brunner/Horizon Motorsports. Team AMSOIL established a position of dominance early on in each heat and was able to keep a considerable lead over the other boats in its class.

Team AMSOIL Offshore won 1st place in each of the 3 heats and also won the Lake Havasu Offshore Grand Prix overall. This event marks Bob Teagueâ€™s 38th season of offshore racing and the completion of the first offshore Cat Lite race for John Teague, quite a feat for the father and son team. John is a regular Team AMSOIL crew member and previously had only driven the race boat during a couple of testing sessions.

Team AMSOIL was pleased to be part of the race festivities and support POPRA, which Bob Teague has raced with since the 1970s, and has served as the President of the club for many years during the 1990s. The camaraderie in this racing community was evident and a great show was put on for the race fans. The Team looks forward to racing in Lake Havasu City again.

Team AMSOIL captured virtually every title possible in the Cat Lite / Super Cat Class during the 2010 racing season. Team AMSOIL is also the holder of the OSS World Endurance record for Miami to Bimini and back, and captured the POPRA World Kilo Record in its class with an official average speed of 131.981mph.

The Team is extremely proud to announce the continued support of AMSOIL Inc.
