Mission Viejo, CA (December 22, 2015) – Since the release of the SCX10 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited C/R Edition vehicle, Axial and Casey Currie have made an unstoppable team. In 2015 Axial and Casey Currie made their presence felt at events around the nation. Moving into 2016, Casey and Axial reflect on all that was accomplished, and the growth that next year will bring.
It started at the King of the Hammers where Axial had a test track set up for fans to enjoy and where Casey ran multiple classes of race vehicles. Between races, Casey would bring his personal Axial vehicle to the test track to run with other fans and enthusiasts. Throughout the Hammers week, Casey and Axial were a hot bed of activity, drawing huge numbers and smiles.
Then it was on to the 2015 Lucas Oil Off Road Racing season where Casey and his Axial vehicle made 9 different stops around the southwest and Mexico. From California, to Baja Mexico, Arizona, Utah, and Nevada, Axial Brand Ambassador, Casey Currie, brought the joy of running his Axial Jeep to the short-course off-road audience.
They made more appearances at Easter Jeep Safari in Moab, Utah where Axial set up a full-course track where big names from the off-road industry all gathered to race their Axial Jeeps. In case there was someone who did not have an Axial Jeep there, Axial provided a fleet of the CRC edition Jeeps so everyone could participate. Casey found his way through the group and brought his CRC Edition SCX10 Jeep into the victory circle first. Everyone had an amazing time and Casey looks forward to defending his Axial Moab Night Crawl title.
It was then off to Butler, Pennsylvania for the Bantam Historic Jeep Festival that was celebrating the 75th birthday of the Jeep. Unfortunately, the event was cut short due to rainstorms, but Casey still made an appearance at the Axial obstacle course to see fans and make a few quick runs on the course.
From the bad weather of Pennsylvania, to the beautiful skies of Northern California, another big stop for the Axial-Currie team was the Jeepers Jamboree in Rubicon. Along with Casey, Randall Speir, from Dana Spicer and Matt Chapman from Monster Energy, they all conquered the treacherous trail and made time to run their Axial Jeeps in some of the most picturesque landscapes in California.
Inspired by his adventures with Axial, Casey even built an RC rock crawling track at his shop in Corona, California. It was just completed and Casey had a big reveal and open house to show off the new improvements to his shop on December 17, 2015.
Together, Axial and Casey have had quite a year! They are spreading the popularity of Axial Jeeps and all the great family fun that can be had. With more events planned in 2016, there is a lot to look forward to!
