IRON OUTLAW PRESS RELEASE
Linsey Weenk to leave 2Xtreme Racing
Posted 7/12/07 Linsey Weenk, the popular driver of the Checker
Schuck’s Kragen Auto Parts Iron Outlaw monster truck will be leaving the team he
joined 2 ½ years ago effective this August. The 28 year old Canadian driver is
making a move to Live Nation Motorsports where he will drive the Ford sponsored
Blue Thunder truck.
The Iron Outlaw debuted in January of 2005 as a teammate to Jimmy Creten in
Bounty Hunter. In Weenk’s time behind the wheel he captured 12 major stadium
victories on the Monster Jam tour including an incredible 7 race winning streak
in the 2006 season. That season included wins at both the final ever event
inside the Pontiac Silverdome and the first event in Detroit’s Ford Field. In
both 2006 and 2007 Weenk competed in the Monster Jam World Finals, qualifying
third behind Creten at each running. One of his most memorable moments includes
dodging a tumbling Dennis Anderson in Grave Digger after a first round victory
in the Silverdome.
"It’s been an incredible ride here and I want to thank everyone with the team"
noted Weenk. "The CSK team does a ton of events each year and the bottom line is
I’m looking to spend less time on the road. Jimmy always gave me the best
possible equipment to drive and never held me back so I’m very grateful to him
for that." Linsey will pilot Blue Thunder at the Monsters on Mainstreet event
July 21st and then move back into Iron Outlaw until mid-August. Team members
Russ Steeley, Jay McPherson and Darren Migues will then take over for the
remainder of the ’07 schedule.
The future of 2Xtreme Racing’s third truck is undecided at this time. "We’re sad
to see Linsey leave. He was a great part of the team and I don’t know of many
drivers that could top him" added Creten. "At this point we’re looking at
different scenarios for next year and will make some decisions in the next few
weeks as to what we’re going to do with the truck". No matter what configuration
the team runs in the coming year rest assured the level of performance and
commitment to their sponsors will remain extremely high.

Veteran Kreg Christensen to Pilot Checker Schuck’s Kragen
Iron Outlaw in 2008
Posted 10/23/07 “We were determined to have a team just as strong or stronger
than we’ve had the past 2 years” explained 2Xtreme Racing owner and driver Jimmy
Creten. “I’m pretty sure we can call it mission accomplished”. Utah’s Kreg
Christensen will take the wheel of 2Xtreme’s Iron Outlaw monster truck this
winter, chasing his first ever birth into the Monster Jam World Finals. A
seasoned veteran of 15 years, Christensen will step out of his well-known Dragon
Slayer Hummer H2 immediately in preparation for the new year.
Chosen from a large field of rookie applicants, current drivers and even a few
other owner/drivers, the deciding factor might seem odd to most. “The bottom
line is … I hate racing that guy. I know that on any given day, if his equipment
holds together he’ll probably beat me. That’s the guy I want in my other truck”
noted Creten. It’s interesting to know that Christensen and Creten were once
partners early in their careers and have had their fare share of differences in
the past. “We’ve put all that behind us some time ago and while we’d like to rip
each other’s hearts out on the track, behind the scenes we get along very well
these days”.
Without a doubt one of the sport’s hardest charging drivers Kreg Christensen has
claimed titles at many levels of competition and recently won the West Coast
Monster Truck Nationals in Red Bluff, CA for the fourth time. A true west coast
favorite, the yellow Hummer bodied Dragon Slayer and it’s driver have become one
of the storied duos in monster truck history. “I look forward to representing
the Creten’s operation and CSK the best that I can and there’s no doubt that
Jimmy and I will be tough to beat this winter” explained Christensen, “My goal
is to make it into the World Finals for the first time and I think this move
will be a great one for both me and the fans who’ve followed me for years”. Kreg
plans to keep his team of trucks running with sons, Mikeal and Paul Jensen at
the controls.

As we watched this beast crawl up the RTI Ramp, observed the pivot point just behind the cab of the
truck as it worked it's extra flex into a great score for a 118 inch wheelbase
vehicle, we knew we would have to do
a page on
this beast.
