Corry Weller And AIRAID Take On Pro 4 One Race At A Time

Pro 4 is the most costly of short course off road competitions in the Lucas Oil Off-Road Racing Series. Building the right vehicle and getting prepped for the track are expensive, but the toll on one’s nerves and body can be harsh as well.

One person who knows this is Corry Weller, the only female driver to race in the LOORRS Pro 4 Class. Sponsored by several companies including AIRAID, she’s a rare breed in a male-dominated circuit, but she’s no rookie when it comes to racing.

Starting off in 2001 with her introduction to motocross, Weller found herself not only enraptured by the thrills of driving a quad, but found herself a friend and husband in Jason Weller, a fellow racer who now works as her manager and partner.

Moving from motocross to the then-burgeoning world of UTV racing, Weller made it clear she was a force to be reckoned with when she started her own racing team and created a Yamaha Rhino that dominated the track. That’s no exaggeration, either; she and the Rhino went on to win the SR1 Championship in 2011.

Then, just last year, Weller made the jump into Pro 4 territory, purchasing her first 4×4 truck from none other than Carl Renezeder. “My dream had finally come true,” says Weller. “But not without years of hard work…[and] hard racing.”

Of course, AIRAID is no stranger to hard racing; their honeycombed, durable parts and components cover everything Weller uses, from her daily driving Silverado to the Pro 4 truck, the latter of which has to stand up to lots of abuse on the track. As Weller states, “When you are running $40k motors, you have to trust your air filter completely.”

With 2013 almost over, Weller is still in the game and loving every minute of it. Her AIRAID-equipped truck and UTV provide the fun, while she provides the skill needed to drive them. For anyone considering life on the short course, Weller says it is demanding, “Be ready to give up every other thing that has ever been important to you.”

“The sacrifice is huge–but if you are like me, it’s the only thing you could imagine doing, and it’s more than worth it.” We certainly can’t imagine Weller anywhere else, and we’re glad she’s having fun while breaking ground.
