BFGoodrich Tires Honored At SCORE Desert Racing Banquet; Brand Claims Two Major Series Awards
Greenville, SC

BFGoodrich Tires, a staple of off-road racers worldwide, captured two major honors Saturday as SCORE International concluded the 2003 SCORE Desert Series with the annual SCORE Awards Night in Las Vegas, Nevada.

With its 18th straight overall four-wheel victory in the season-ending Tecate SCORE Baja 1000 in November, BFGoodrich Tires was honored as both the 2003 SCORE Contingency Company and the 2003 SCORE Pit Support Team of the year. The Off-Roadsman awards are determined by vote of the more than 2,500 members of Los Angeles-based SCORE International.

"BFGoodrich Tires has been a continuing support to all of desert racing, especially SCORE, for over 25 years," said Sal Fish, SCORE's chief executive officer and president. "To win the Tecate SCORE Baja 1000 once is a major feat, but to capture the world's most prestigious desert race 18 straight years is unbelievable. BFG Tires are the most dominant desert-racing tires in the world and we are privileged to honor them. Their grassroots support of desert racers is unparalleled."

"We are both honored and humbled to receive two SCORE Off-Roadsman awards," said Gary Enterline, light-truck category manager for BFGoodrich Tires. "So many employees and volunteers have contributed their time and effort to support the brand's off-road racing presence this past year. These awards are a direct reflection of the hard work that these individuals put forth during the season."
