DEEGAN, LEDUCS HIT THE DIRT IN ARIZONA

Makita’s presence in off-road racing continues to grow. The Rockstar Makita LeDuc racing team of Curt, Todd (mid-right), and Kyle LeDuc is a fan favorite and the best family race team in the off-road business. Makita recently signed “The General” Brian Deegan (below-right), an icon in action sports and a rising star in off-road racing. Both teams are making an impact in the 2011 Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series.

If you take a walk at the track on race day, you’ll see Makita tools hard at work in the pits. Makita impact wrenches, impact drivers, driver-drills, grinders, and more can be found in the hands of the pro mechanics who keep these 900 HP race trucks on track.

Watch Brian Deegan and the LeDucs compete in the Arizona desert this Sunday at 1 p.m. (Eastern) on CBS Sports.
