CBS SPORTS SPECTACULAR BRINGS VIEWERS BUMPS AND JUMPS OF "LUCAS OIL OFF ROAD RACING SERIES" ON SUNDAY, MAY 1
CBS SPORTS SPECTACULAR presents short-course racing with Round Two of the LUCAS OIL OFF ROAD PRO2 & PRO4 RACING SERIES on Sunday, May 1 (1:00-2:00 PM, ET; taped 3/20/11) from Arizona's Firebird Raceway in Firebird, Ariz. Showcasing 800hp trucks racing door-to-door while flying 80 feet through the air, it is often compared to a mix of rally racing, stock-car racing, and supercross racing. This short-course racing program features both the Pro2 (two-wheel drive) and Pro4 (four-wheel drive) classes, as two-dozen thunderous trucks pound through the bumps, jumps and tight turns of the short-course track. Cameron Steele, Ken Stout, Rob Klepper and Kelli Snyder call the action for CBS Sports. CBS Sports' Deb Boulac serves as coordinating producer.
Harold Bryant is Vice President, Production, CBS Sports.
