FOA wins FourWheeler Magazines Top Truck Challenge!!
 FOA Shock Absorbers equipped Jason Gray of Amity Oregon won the truck class at the annual FourWheeler Magazine Top Truck Challenge!
Top Truck takes place over the course of almost a week near Hollister Hills, California, at the Hollister Hills SVRA. Ten rigs, chosen exclusively by Four Wheeler readers, compete in seven extreme off-highway events. These events represent almost every discipline of four-wheeling and consist of the Tow Test, Frame Twister, Mud Pit, Obstacle Course, Hillclimb, Mini Rubicon and Tank Trap. All of these events are challenging to one degree or another, but the Tank Trap is the crown jewel of Top Truck. The Trap is a one-of-a-kind, incredibly taxing event that pushes vehicles to the very edge of their design parameters. It can also push teams to their breaking point as they battle the unrelenting obstacles while racing against the clock.
Jason's FOA Shock equipped '75 Chevy Blazer bested all comers thruout the multi-day competition.
"I don't know that I'de have done nearly as well without my FOA Shock Aborbers. I've run these shocks and bumpstops for over 2 years now. They've held up to everything I've thrown at them including taking me to the winners circle at the 2010 Top Truck Challenge. You can't ask for more than that!" -Jason Gray
Everyone at FOA congratulates Jason on a great win!
 
FOA Bigelow Motorsports/FOA Shocks wins Inaugural 2009 XOR Short Course Championship
New Egypt, NJ September 29, 2009- Doug Bigelow, owner and driver of the number 5E race buggy, brought the inaugural 2009 short course XOR series championship back to the Emmitsburg, MD race shop this past weekend.
Facing tough competition all year at the one mile New Egypt Raceway track, Bigelow battled drivers from all over the north east. Over the three event series and total of nine races, Bigelow won seven of nine heats to include two main feature wins. "We were really happy with the win this weekend and being able to bring the championship back to Maryland in the inaugural year of the series is special to us. The whole team worked hard all year to make this happen and more importantly we are very proud to be able to bring the championship home for our sponsors. Without the sponsors that support us, there is no way any of this could happen. For that we are very proud," noted Bigelow after the race.
Bigelow Motorsports will be in action next on November 7th at Rausch Creek Offroad Park for the second RCROCS endurance race.
