Team All-Pro Racing, led by driver Jon Bundrant and spotter Larry McRae started right where they left off at the end of their 2003 championship season winning the first professional rock crawling event of the 2004 season and their second consecutive Shootout. "It's great to come back to the second annual Cal Roc's Put Up or Shut Up and win our second consecutive victory at this event. What a great way to start the year," said Bundrant. Bundrant and Team All-Pro Racing use BFGoodrich Tires' proven Krawler T/A extreme terrain tire. Designed specifically for off-road use, the Krawler T/A features an ultra-aggressive, deep-lug tread pattern and one of the most puncture-resistant sidewalls ever built into a tire.
