Fresh Off Their 5th Place Finish at Vegas to Reno, CANIDAE Racing Heads to Inaugural 2011 Robby Gordon SPEED Energy Desert Challenge!


The CANIDAE Pet Foods Off Road Racing team will be one of the inaugural competitors at the first Robby Gordon SPEED Energy Desert Challenge race held this September 29 through October 2 at Miller Motorsports Park in Tooele, Utah.
