September 12th Event added to CNS Schedule
Colorado National Speedway is excited to announce the addition of a bonus race event on Friday September 12th.
On this night, in preparation for the 2014 National Truck Driver Appreciation Week, we are excited to present:
World Champion Cycle Jumper El Gringo Loco (also known as Gary Wells) will jump 12 semi trucks for the fans at Colorado National Speedway!

| Gary Wells Ceasers Palace Jump 1980 |
Gary Wells is a World Champion Motorcyclist Extraordinaire!
The following write-up was extracted from Gary Wells' Website:
Gary has been featured nationally on all three major networks. (CBS Sports Spectacular, ABC That's Incredible, NBC Late Night with Tom Snyder, Mike Douglas, and Dick Clark Special, etc.)
In 1980 Gary broke his own World Record in Melbourne, Australia with a 176' 4" jump. In the time period between January 1979 to April of 1980, there were seven attempts by six other jumpers (four English, two Australians) at this distance and all have been unsuccessful.
The American stands unscathed and has thusly created a class of his own. The media has deemed him "a legend": one hundred and ten World Record jumps and only one accident.
This accident being the infamous Caesar's Palace Fountains in Las Vegas, September 15, 1980. Fighting the toughest challenge of his life, Gary Wells completely recovered from the catastrophic crash (which would have killed a lesser man).
