Jorn Neumann and Team Durango win 2012 Reedy Race of Champions

Jörn Neumann wins the prestigeous REEDY International Off Road Race of Champions with the Team Durango DEX210 and DEX410.

The greatest off road racers in the world gathered at an event some say is harder to win than the Worlds. There’s only one winner at the Reedy race – with combined 2WD and 4WD scores deciding the overall winner. To win – it was going to take immense talent as well as having the best cars in both classes.

Jörn Neumann came to the race with little dirt track experience – to the backyard of many American pro-drivers, and proved that Team Durango have truly arrived.

Jörn showed his Team Durango buggies have the reliablility and speed to not only compete, but conquer at the highest level. Finally the memories of having to settle for 2nd at the World Championships in 2011 can be forgotten, as Jörn Neumann becomes the first ever european driver to win the Reedy International Off Road Race of Champions.

It was a great effort by all the Team Durango racers – sharing their knowlege and experience throughout the event and coming away with the victory against the best in the world.
