Professional off-road racer Gray Leadbetter returns to ERX Motor Park for the first time in two years for this weekend’s Championship Off-Road ERX Off-Road National. Approaching the halfway point of the season, Leadbetter remains fifth in Pro Lite points in the #28 On Track School/Yokohama/Pepper Palace/Ryan Beat Motorsports truck, best among all of this year’s true rookies.

A pair of fifth place finishes in last month’s Forest County Potawatomi Brush Run at Crandon International Raceway marked Leadbetter’s most consistent weekend yet. The top-fives, her third and fourth of the season, allowed her to strengthen her hold on fifth in points as she prepares for her return to ERX. While she missed this event as a Pro SXS driver last year due to her Extreme E commitments, Leadbetter and RBM have excelled together, at the Minnesota track in the past, taking a win and second in Pro SPEC in both 2022 and 2023.

“I missed getting to race at ERX last year, but I’m ready to make up for lost time this weekend,” said Leadbetter. “Our pair of top fives at Crandon were our most consistent run yet, and we’re feeling good about building on that at ERX. Having won here multiple times with Ryan in Pro SPEC, we’re excited to have the chance to do the same thing in Pro Lite!”
