The 2009 Lone Kid Racing Battle at Primm race put on by SNORE turned out to be an exciting weekend of racing for racers and spectators.
What makes this race unique is the short lap course that makes it great for watching the race. Within 15 minutes fans can see their favorite racers pass numerous times.
A new feature of this years race was part of the race course was made up of the CORR stadium track. If you have seen this track you will know desert race vehicles are not set up for this type of terrain. Large rollers, huge table-top jumps are not something you see in the NevadaDesert.
