This week we had the opportunity to sit down with Casey Currie. Casey was born into a motor sports family. With a family that has been in business for over 50 years building high performance rear end’s for most off road and NASCAR style racing. Growing up in Anaheim Hills, California he has been drawn to anything with a motor. By the age of 5 he was racing motorcycles and by the age of 16 he jumped behind the wheel of his first race truck. Currie’s off-road resume is lined with wins on motorcycles, trucks and buggies in the desert—this one is no stranger to dirt sports.

When he’s not on the road, building off-road vehicles and drumming up side projects, he’ll take to the dirt with friends—dirt bikes, UTVs, or mountain bikes, he does it all.

And Casey was gunning it from the start of 2013. With 5 podium finishes and several top 5’s Casey was looking good on the short course track. But as it is in racing, it ended up being an up and down season. Luckily, Currie kept to his broad range of interests and ran the King of the Hammers and participated in the Monster Jam Demo in Las Vegas. A growth year for Casey, he was ready to take on 2014.

In 2014, Casey took on more projects than he had ever done before. Continuing to race in the the Lucas Oil Off Road Racing series, he also took on the King of the Hammers, the Baja 1000, Monster Jam and the battle of the Big House in Crandon, WI. On top of his full race schedule, Casey also took on building multiple Jeeps for various companies for the 2014 SEMA show where his presence was felt in every building (and outside) of the show. And he didn’t stop there.

There was no break for Casey between race seasons, he kept the throttle down and has pushed hard into the 2015 season where he has run the Monster Jam, King of the Hammers, run in the Lucas Short Course series, and made history by running a straight axle Jeep in the Trophy Truck Class of the Baja 500. He has Run the Trail of Missions down the Baja Peninsula and participated in Historical events such as the Bantam Historic Jeep Festival in Butler, PA. Every weekend you can find him either at a race, a show, or living the Jeep lifestyle running trails throughout California.
