all I can say is it was like I cant explain
bettter than sex! we had a awesome start with Mike penland getting us a 15 minute lead by the 80 mile mark. things were going great until the 350 mile when we had a odd breakdown that cost us 6 hrs do to where the rider was.got it going again until we had the same issue at mile 525 cost us 4 more hours so we timed out going across the finish line taking second place.
It was a great experience for Zac only being 19
and riding with the best Mr Penland. After 1 year in the GNCC ranking 23 Nationaly Zac has landed himself a Factory ride with Can Am for the 2010 season running the 13 GNCC and 6 AMA races in the open 4X4 class.

Sweet,
Factory ride! What an achievement being that young and already got a factory backing you up! Thats got to be a little easier on the pocket book to eh.
Way to go Zac.

Zakowski Motorsports is a prime example of the type of people/family we need in our sport!

Not only is Zak an excellent representative for Can-AM, but an ambassador of Mi-TRALE.

Then you have his family, and all that they have done for our sport and Mi-TRALE.

Am I proud of them? I'll let you guess.
