COYNE MOTORSORTS AND PRO COMP SUSPENSION MAKE A SUCCESFUL DEBUT AT C.O.R.R. OPENING WEEKEND

The months of anticipation, rumors, and speculation that filled the off season came to a head at the opening round of the Championship Off Road Racing Series (C.O.R.R.) held May 20th -21st 2006 in Chula Vista California. One of the hottest topics was the long list of West Coast talent entering the series ready to go to battle with the C.O.R.R regulars.

At the top of the list of talented competitors was the father and son team of Marty and Travis Coyne. As respected competitors in the extremely competitive S.C.O.R.E. Trophy Truck class there was a lot of anticipation from fans and fellow competitors alike. Coyne Motorsports entered the C.O.R.R. series with a 2-truck effort with the support of long time marketing partner Pro Comp Suspension.

Marty made his C.O.R.R. debut driving in the premier class, Pro-4 in the # 5 Pro Comp Suspension Truck and Travis made his driving debut in the ultra competitive Pro-2 division in the # 6 Pro Comp Suspension Truck.

C.O.R.R Round 1: Saturday

Pro-2
At the drop of the green flag Travis and the Pro Comp Pro-2 were at the front of the pack battling it out with the series best drivers. I was just going out there and learning the track and the truck" "Unfortunately because of the limited test facilities, I only had a total of fifteen laps in our Pro Comp Pro-2 before this race" After the dust settled, Travis and the Pro Comp Pro-2 found themselves taking the checkered flag in 4th place.

Pro-4
Marty and the Pro Comp Pro-4 blasted off the line into the 100 mph first turn and was poised to battle for the lead.

C.O.R.R. Round 2: Sunday
Pro-2
After a strong finish in Round 1, Travis had his sights set on putting the Pro Comp Pro-2 on the podium. "I was confident going into Round 2 knowing we were able to run up front with top teams" After battling all race with the leaders, a late race spin caused Travis to finish in the 7th position. "I am really proud of our team this weekend" "Coming out here for our first time and finishing were we did, I know we opened some eyes" "I have to thank Pro Comp for their dedication and support in putting together this first class program".

Pro-4
With the momentum of a top 5 finish in Round 1, Marty also had his sights set on placing the Pro Comp Pro-4 atop the podium. "I just wanted to put in clean consistent laps as I am still feeling out the capabilities of this new truck" After 15 laps of action packed, door to door racing, Marty once again found himself crossing the finish line in 5th place.
