MENIFEE, CA – Last weekend Obsession Racing was in Albuquerque New Mexico for their last Monster Jam event for the year 2007. Going in with high hopes Rick was determined to do his best. Friday night started out with a wheelie competition that did not go as well as planned. After getting the truck back to the pits he discovered that the pinion support bearing in the rear differential was going out. This meant that Rick had to be smooth with the throttle and make perfect corners.
Rick did everything he could in racing and proved it by making it to the final rounds both nights. The final round would put the Fabtech Obsession up against Pablo in Grave Digger both nights. Rick was very satisfied when he took a hurt Fabtech Obsession neck and neck against Graver Digger. Unfortunately Grave Digger was called the winner. In the freestyle portion of the show was where you could really tell that the truck wasn’t up to par. It didn’t stop the crowd from cheering but it only placed us in the middle of the bracket. We have two displays left to do this year and then December 1st we will be tearing down the truck to get it ready for a 2008 winning new year!
