It is hard to believe that the 2019 Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series season is already over, but over this last weekend champions were crowned and history was made. Kyle LeDuc has been a name atop of the Pro 4 class and he once again proved why his name is etched in history.
“Winning the championship for the sixth time in the Pro 4 division was a massive achievement for us,” said LeDuc. “And to do it by winning the last round of racing is the only way to do it right… and we did because of Toyo Tires, period!”
“The Cup race victory was the icing on the cake for this huge weekend for us,” said LeDuc. “We had to fight past 20 trucks to get to the top level and capture the legendary Lucas Oil Cup race. I am the only one on that track that has Toyo tires and that is why we are always a threat to win.”
LeDuc’s two victories on Saturday represent a total of 99 career wins overall. Ninety-three of those have been on Toyo tires. LeDuc’s legacy is growing every time that he hits the dirt and with the way he is going 2020 will be a big year for him.
“Kyle LeDuc is one of the most prolific drivers in the history of short course off-road racing and we are proud to be a part of his championship-winning team,” said Stan Chen, senior manager of events and sponsorships, Toyo Tire U.S.A. Corp. “Our Open Country competition tires give him the traction, durability and overall performance he needs to get to the top of the podium race after race; season after season.”
LeDuc is one of the winningest drivers ever in short course off-road racing. In addition to his string of championships and Cup wins in the Lucas Oil Off-Road Racing Series, he also won both the TORC World Championship and the AMSOIL Cup at Crandon in 2014 as well as the Borg Warner Cup at the Crandon World Championship Off-Road Races in 2009.
We look forward to the 2020 season of the Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series and we will be on the lookout for LeDuc’s 100th win.
