Garry and I-45 Sales hosts the Can Am Nationals every year, and it is slowly growing each year. The Can Am Nationals is usually held at Garry's Atv park Rural Shade, however Rural Shade is temporarily closed. This year it was held at Lower Place Motorsports Martins Mills, Tx. Lower Place Motorsports is mainly geared towards hosting racing events, and not trail riding.

I am the official photographer for I-45 Sales Race Team, so I was covering this event for the Magazine, and providing pictures for I-45 Sales Racing Team. I will have all the racing pictures on a seperate page, which will entail roughly 400 pictures, and I will slowly be adding pictures every day, until I get them all up. This write up will cover the event, and the highlights.

I met up with Matt, and the I-45 Sales race team, and Matt showed me the full dual Looney Tuned Exhaust they are running on their Renegade, and it looks and sounds really good. If you want to wake up your machine be sure to check out this exhaust system.

As I mention earlier this place is not really design for trail riding, but there is roughly 50 acres of fields you can ride around in.

There are camping spaces available, and most of them are underneath the trees, which offer plenty of shade, and high ground.

This place generally specializes in truck mud bogs, however they do have Atv Mud Bogs, as well as a sand drag race section.

This is the swamp mud cross race pit, which is basically a circular race pit. However, I-45 Sales design a race pit that was very different from other Swamp Mud Cross Race Pits. This pit had your deep water and mud sections, but it also had dry table tops, and some dry staight runs, which was going to make for some very fast action.

Can Am was also here, and offering free test rides of the new 2010 Outlanders, and showing off their new power steering units.

Well that is pretty much it, now it is time for the racing action. I am going to post all the racing pictures on their own seperate pages, since I have so many. Oh, it was very hot at a nice and toasty 108 degrees in the shade. This was a great event, and I am looking forward to the next one. Great job Garry, Matt, and crew.

It was so hot, Trail Demon needed its own canopy.

It was getting closer to showtime, and the racers began to line-up.

It was getting closer to showtime, and the racers began to line-up.

First up were the kiddos, and the action was very good.

Then the women's Main Mud Bog got heated, and these women raced just as hard as the men.

Then the men's Main Mud Bog began, and the racing was fast and furious.

Then it was time for the SxS to hit the mud bogs, and the action was no less.

Next were the SxS in the Swamp Cross, where the action was great.

The grand show was the Swamp Cross Race, and wait until you see these pictures.
