Having only a day in between events Rick and Eric headed to Tijuana Mexico for a Saturday night only show with racing and Freestyle.  Rick did awesome in the finals in racing and Eric blew a motor in his freestyle completion but still put on a great run.  With Eric needing a new motor Rick and Eric came home to switch it out for their next show the following weekend in Monterey Mexico.  They had to do this quickly as they had a 1,700 mile drive to make to Monterey.  They made it in time and put on an awesome show! Eric made up for it taking home the racing and wheelie competition win!

Wrapping up July Obsession Racing had a 5 day event totaling 7 shows for Monster X at the Orange County Fair in California.  These shows were freestyle only.  This was a great show for the Obsession Racing Team! Rick had one freestyle win and a wheelie win.  Eric had a few more with 6 wheelie wins and 5 Freestyle wins.  It was a fun show and we want to thank Bo and his girlfriend Kim for all of their help!

 

MENIFEE, CA – On June 9^th and 10^th Obsession and Obsessed had a show booked in Missoula Montana for WHR Motorsports.  These shows had racing and freestyle each day.  We had the privilege of having Mark Gallagher help us haul the trucks to Montana.  He also helped crew and gave Rick and Eric a place to stay during their travels.  Friday night Eric shined in freestyle taking the win and Rick made it to the finals in racing! Saturday night was even better as Rick took the win in racing and Eric won in freestyle! This was a great weekend for Obsession Racing!

 

The Obsession truck did a video for the rapper Action Jackson.  The shoot was done at Studio 60 in Los Angeles.  They had them fire up the truck for the video and had the singer sitting in the truck singing and acting like he was driving.  It is always fun doing a video shoot and meeting new people.  It was another fun day in L.A.!

 

Eric flew to Wisconsin to help crew for TK Motorsports and spend some time with his girlfriend.  He was given the opportunity to drive for 2Xtreme Racing in Iron Outlaw as they were down a driver.  He made it to the finals and put on a good show for 2Xtreme racing. 

 

We also received in the month of June our new frame for the Obsessed truck manufactured by Flame Motorsports.  Eric is excited for his new frame!  Dad seems to get stuck with the hand me downs but that’s what parents do!  Only the best for our Son!!

 

MENIFEE, CA – On May 5^th and 6^th Obsession Racing did a show for WGAS Motorsports in Santa Rosa California.  These two shows were freestyle only.  Rick enjoyed his new set up that he has for his shocks.  This made his landings much more comfortable and allowed him to make a solid run for both days.  Both days Eric tied with Jimmy Creten in Bounty Hunter for the freestyle wins. Eric did his famous big air jumps and Jimmy did his well-known wheelies.

From Santa Rosa Rick and Eric went to Turlock California for another WGAS Motorsports event.  This was another two day show with freestyle only.  With the new suspension set up on Obsession, Rick was getting lots of practice perfecting his wheelies.  Eric put on another great freestyle run leaving the crowd cheering for him both nights.

The boys were back in town the following weekend and did a display in Fontana for Air Flow Research Company on Saturday the 20^th.  This was a sponsorship display for V8 builds Auto Cross Show.
