Championship Chase
With just one event remaining George is in prime position to bring home the LOORS Unlimited UTV title. George has run consistently near the front all season and he knows he just has to hold on for one more race.

“It feels good to be in a strong position to win the championship,†said George. “We want to finish the season on a good note so I’m going to go out and race for the win in Phoenix. But I’m going to be smart and make sure I keep the championship in mind. At Vegas I knew we had a strong car on Saturday, so on Sunday I made sure to finish on the box.â€
