A strong roster of Dougan-powered trucks showed up to the two-day Laughlin Desert Classic race. Racers would cover 68 miles each day. Their overall results for the weekend would be determined by a combined time from each day.
BJ Baldwin, in the #97 Black Rifle Coffee truck came out determined to go to work. He qualified 4th and finished top 5 on day 1. The field was stacked with strong competitors and BJ brought home the win for day 2!
Steve Olliges had a 7th place finish on day one and 3rd place on day two, giving him a combined finish of 4th for the weekend.
Robert Johnston took 6th place on day one after starting dead last in the pack. He may have won the road crossing jump for the weekend, though!
