TORC series racing at Charlotte Motor Speedway Dirt Track this off weekend. Will the Speed Energy Pro 2 be there?

So this weekend is the first ever short course off road race at Charlotte Motor Speedways dirt track. Many of the big names form the Lucus Oil Off Road Series on the West coast are coming out to race with TORC as this race will be huge.

I have heard nothing regarding Robby racing his Pro 2, but being that this is a off weekend for NASCAR will Robby be there? Why would he not be? Why have we not heard a PR if Robby will be there? The track is 20 min for RGM, RG needs to race this race this weekend!

MJ the issue TOG is referring too has nothing to do with running the logo's. It is regarding what promotions you can do at a SMI track.

I'd believe Bruton's issue with Speed Energy/Robby has to do with 'gorilla marketing'.I'm sure if Robby cut Bruton a check he'd permit marketing.
Showing up with the Orange Speed Energy Pro-2 would be the same as showing up at Loudon last weekend with the Orange Speed Energy Cup car,nothing Brutan can do about that.

I have no confirmation of this either, But Kyle Busch has said he wants to race off-road again and when it was mentioned that TORC would be coming to Charlotte, Kyle was interested. This was said a while back, so who knows if it could and will happen. But TORC's title sponsor is Traxxas and they also sponsor some of Kyles Truck series races. I could see Traxxas wanting Kyle to race.

Traxxis sponsors KB's CW trucks, he ran TORC here in Joliet @ the Dirty O last year too. If I remember correctly he broke a rear end........running in the top 3

Robby was on the early entry list that TORC released early last week.

For all you NASCAR fans in the Charlotte area, $20 ($10 for kids) for an evening of real "have at it boys" beatin' and bangin' on dirt is serious raucous "E" ticket fun. Fenders optional.
