Martin Christensen and Armin Schwartz- Class 1 triumph in the fastest race of the SCORE off-road series

Poway, CA (April 16, 2008)- Bilstein Shock Absorbers captured another win for its revolutionary 9300 Series Black Hawk off-road race shock at the 22nd SCORE San Felipe 250.

SCORE Champion Martin Christensen of Escondido, CA and World Rally Championship competitor Armin Schwarz of Germany took the unlimited Class 1 race win in their Bilstein equipped All German Auto desert race car. This was the first Class 1 win for Christensen and the first ever SCORE win for Schwarz.

The #104 BMW-powered Jimco Class 1 race car started in fifth position, but quickly moved up the field until claiming the lead spot. Christensen and Schwarz lead the race- crossing the finish line in San Felipe with an elapsed time of 4:08:22 and average speed of 56.05mph.

Out of the 18 starters in Class 1, only 12 finished the rigorous 232-mile race. Christensen/Schwarz finished 4th overall in the Truck and Car classes.

When asked how he felt about the win, Christensen commented:

“It’s great! All German Motorsports has had many successes in the past with Bilstein Shocks, so we are very pleased to add a Class 1 victory to the list of wins.”

This was another SCORE race win for the Bilstein 9300 Series Black Hawk. It was also the first time a BMW-powered vehicle has ever won Class 1 in a SCORE race.

Congratulations to Martin Christensen and Armin Schwarz on their win.
