Not sure if all you got the news. We went to the Mint 400 this weekend in Las Vegas. What a race. Murray Racing finished 1st and Cory Sappington finished 2nd for a 1-2 Canam Commander finish. It was an awesome race. Somewhere around 30 UTV's entered.

This is a first for the Commanders and at such a prestigious race.
Jason and Derek Murray were great to talk to and to watch. We sported their shirts at the race and then to see them win. PRICELESS!!!!!!!!

Guess it's time to think about the "Cowmander" a bit differently.

Jagged had 3 cars and not one of them finished. New car blues. Doesn't really matter, that's why they call it racing and not winning. There were 14 Polaris UTV's in the race and only 3 Commanders.

As a Commander XT owner we were so stoked to see this finish.

Ya I followed him too. I got to meet him, Murray Racing and Avid Racing at the race. All 3 of these teams are running Commanders and just the nicest people.
For us Commander owners, The Mint 400 was the place to be this last weekend. We've got Murray racing shirts that Derek gave us before the race and wear them to the race. We were kidding on the way home saying maybe they'll be a collectors items.

Good to hear Murray won and Sappington came in second.

It seems finishing the race is half the battle in the SxS's.
