Huntington Beach, CA – Camburg Engineering has set their sights high and is entered to race in SCORE’s elite off-road Trophy Truck class at this year’s Baja 500 in Ensenada Mexico June 2-4, 2006. In a field made up of drivers like Robby Gordon, Ed Herbst, Alan Pflueger, Mark Miller and many others, the challenge and competition is at the highest level.

Camburg is racing their 2-wheel drive Ford Ranger Edge against trucks & teams that have 3-4 times the horsepower with budgets in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. Their goal is to finish well with zero problems at a pace that is really able to showcase what their off the shelf long-travel suspension parts are capable of at race speeds through some of the most extreme terrain out there. Racing on parts that are available to everyone is a true testament of how far the industry has advanced.

The Edge is outfitted with Camburg’s race series long-travel front a-arm suspension and race series 3-link rear suspension utilizing Bilstein coilovers and bypass shocks including their BlackHawk series. Also for the first time on a truck in Baja, Nitto’s new racing tire the Dune Grappler Desert Terrain tire will be in use with Camburg Racing and Arciero Miller Racing.

Camburg Racing has also teamed up with a few new sponsors including Monster Energy Drinks, Spy Optics and AEM Intake Systems.

Camburg would like to thank all their sponsors for their continued support: AEM Intake Systems, American Racing, Beard Seats, Bilstein Shocks, Blue C, Board Ford, Hella, Ironclad, Lucas Oil, JBA, Mothers, Nitto Tires, SPARCO USA, SPY Optics and Yukon Gears.
