I'd like to take some credit for this win. Had I not sold you my first miata so that you could race it and blow up the engine, you would have never gotten this civic to race.

Sweet victory! :) Well done sir!

· Brad Lovell
· Bud Brutsman
· Kyle Tucker
· Roger Lovell
· Luke Wilwert
· Michael Crawford


The winning driver who will be going to Ford Racing High Performance Driving School is:
· Rob MacCachren


“This year’s ‘Select-the-Seats’ program was our most successful yet, with triple the number of
votes received versus last year’s program. BFG’s online community was engaged and rallied
the vote for their favorite Team BFG motorsports personalities,” said Jamey Fish, director of
consumer experience, BFGoodrich Tires. “It is programs like these that continue to reinforce the
breath of our brand’s abilities to provide thrilling driving experiences both on and off the
pavement.”

Team BFG members Bud Brutsman, Brad Lovell, Roger Lovell, Kyle Tucker and Rob
MacCachren all come from very different, yet successful automotive backgrounds.

· Brad and Roger Lovell make racing a family affair, fielding rock-crawling and off-road
racing entries as Lovell Racing. As both fabricators and drivers the team dominated rock
crawling competition for years and now is competing for championships in Ultra 4 rock
racing and TORC off-road series. The team’s rock racer was recently featured on an
episode of the hit show, “Top Gear.”

· Bud Brutsman combines a love for all things automotive with a passion for production
to create some of the best known car-themed shows on television including Overhaulin'
and Rides for the Learning Channel, Hot Rod TV, Optima Street Car Challenge and Car
Crazy on SPEED.

· Kyle Tucker and wife Stacy opened Detroit Speed and Engineering in the heart of stock
car racing country, where they design, fabricate and install modern engineering for
classic muscle cars. Kyle’s creations or “test cars” can be seen competing throughout
the year at a variety of events showing the GO not just the show. Kyle and DSE have
been featured on SPEED earlier this year and will be creating Kyle Busch’s Toyota
Dream Ride for SEMA.

· Rob MacCachren has won nearly everything there is to win in off-road racing. Rob has
been a BFGoodrich Tires ambassador for over 20 years, and in that time has dominated
Baja racing with five wins each in the SCORE Baja 500 and 1000 races. Rob just
recently achieved a 200th career win on BFGoodrich® tires at the Traxxas TORC Series
at the historical Crandon International Raceway.
“Simply put, without the fans, we wouldn’t have this sport,” said Bud Brutsman. “Like crossing
the finish line first, I’m extremely excited to receive top honors from the public and can’t wait to
head to the Tecate SCORE Baja 1000 in November to participate in one of the world’s toughest,
most-intense, most-sought after races in the world. A big thank you to BFGoodrich and
everyone who voted for me.”
Fans will be able to watch the Tecate SCORE Baja 1000 by visiting Off-Road Racing News » race-deZert.com.
The “Select-the-Seats” program, now in its third year, has crowned the 2012 winners:

· Fans voted via online application on BFGoodrich Tires’ Facebook page
(facebook.com/bfgoodrichtires) for their favorite Team BFGoodrich members to win a
coveted spot at the Tecate SCORE Baja 1000 or Ford Racing High Performance Driving
School. In an exciting twist to the program, the winning desert racer, Rob MacCachren,
will attend the Ford Racing High Performance Driving School, one of the top pavement
racing schools in the country. Bud Brutsman, Brad and Roger Lovell and Kyle Tucker will
join the “Baja Challenge” team and get behind the wheel at the 45th annual Tecate
SCORE Baja 1000.

· BFGoodrich also challenged SCCA members to compete for a seat in the “Baja
Challenge” buggy by offering an additional two seats to the gold medalists competing on
BFGoodrich g-Force™ R1 tires. The winners were Luke Wilwert and Michael Crawford.
Wilwert captured his first Showroom Stock B National Championship at the 49th SCCA
at Road America, winning by a mere 2.145-seconds over the 14-turn, 4.048-mile track.
Crawford survived a wild race to win the Showroom Stock C National Championship at
the SCCA National Championship Runoffs.
New for this year’s “Select-the-Seats” program, participating fans had a chance to win an offroad
adventure trip for two at the Wide Open Excursion driving experience outside Reno, Nev.

Erick Tuttle of Oxnard, Calif was randomly selected at the end of the public voting period and
will learn learn how to put BFGoodrich tires to the test in the rough and unpredictable terrain of
the Nevada desert in Wide Open cars.
