Xcorps #37.)  XCORR-1 – This Xcorps show throttles up and rips the screen with insane high horse motor sports action with coverage of the CORR off-road race series held at the Antelope Valley Fairgrounds in Lancaster California.

 CORR-Championship Offroad Racing is race genre born from the Baja Mexico 500/1000 races which led to the development of a wide range of tough custom 2 and 4 wheel drive off-road race vehicles including 800HP trucks with massive suspensions along with Pro Lite street style trucks, dirt buggies, trophy carts, ATV’s and Rhino racers. James Baldwin was instrumental in developing and bringing the races to the people with stadium style race events championed by Mickey Thompson in the 1960’s. Now many members of the Baldwin family help manage, promote and race in CORR events.

X medalist and show host Rat Sult opens it up with hot music and a high desert drive to Palmdale California. N.E. of Los Angeles to the Antelope Valley Fairgrounds-site of the CORR races. The X cams were there shooting this new style of motor sports with Rat naming off drivers like Ricky Johnson, Josh Baldwin, Alan Pflueger, Curt LeDuc and Carl Renezeder who all just love battling it out in the dirt! Scarlet Records band Allhelluja matches the action with their song and video “Superhero Mother…”! Nice moves girls!

After the break it’s back to high rev mud slinging Pro-2 class off-road action in front of thousands where drivers are banging it up and going BIG off dirt kickers and berms easily covering 10 truck lengths through the air! It’s loud and Rat’s proud to be there covering all the moves over the mile long course. Sub NoiZe Records band Hed p.e. pumps it up with their song “Sweetchops”. Sick POV action shots here from cameras in the rigs as well as from an over-head cable cam capable of 100MPH+ provided by Perpetual Motion.

The next segment continues hard and fast with MOWER rolling their song ‘Road Rage’ to track action that includes mass destruction and vehicle carnage-flips-rolls and fire all over the Lancaster track! Somehow the song seems appropriate.
Body panels fly and the segment continues to pound on with more Sub NoiZe music from the Humble Gods rolling their tune ‘Destroy’-only the strongest survive! 
In the pits Rat talks to NASCAR driver Robby Gordon about CORR and his recap of the race -see what he says. After that the relentless high powered action continues with a new RIVE video from Eulogy Records band The Warriors doing their song ‘Downbeat’. Cool edit effects here along with insane airborne race action and a message from the band!

Rolling the pits Rat then speaks to driver Josh Baldwin who talks about his #86 custom Ford truck and what it takes to get the power to the ground in the rig! Check out the shots of the inside of the truck followed by more race moves with Josh jamming on the track.
Daddy X pumps the song ‘Mind Bender’ and Rat catches up with another team Baldwin driver super-cross legend and all around off-road champion Ricky Johnson who talks about what he thinks the future of CORR will be.

The show closes out with a dose of off-road single buggy action where chicks roll too! Rat talks to driver Cissy Baldwin about her moves on the track against the guys!  Go girl!  Stay tuned for part 2 of Xcorps coverage of the CORR race series with host Jason Lazo reporting from San Diego at a cool outdoor track called ‘The Quarry’.  See the Action-Hear The Music-Join The Xcorps!
