Yup...that time again...a little more than a month away is the "Terrible Town's 250" just outside Las Vegas. Its race #2 in the Best in the Desert season and Team XterraRacer again is putting the call out to anyone who will/can be in the Vegas area around the dates of 4/27-4/28 (the dates of tech inspection and the actual race). Any and all help is greatly appreciated. Please either PM me here or post in the forums over on Team Xterrra Racing (http://www.teamxterraracing.com) if you are interested and available to help us out for this race. Thanks!!

a bit more info from some of the team members who have been to this race before

"This is not a stationary pit race you will be moving all day.This race is fun for the crew because of the fact you almost feel like your racing too going from pit to pit.(Kids usauly dont like this because its fast paced all day) Pahrump is higher elevation so its a little cooler in the morning but the days can reach 90.Be prepared." and
"It is time to start planning who will be there. I have booked 6 rooms for Friday and Saturday. This is a chase race, very exciting for the crew as they have to hop pit to pit and beat the race car. I need 4-6 strong, mechanicly inclined people to help us at this race. You dont need any tools, just a desire to help with whatever duties come up. You will get dirty and have fun! I promise this."
and
"When you say "DIRTY" what do you mean? is one of the pit stops at the famous conttontail ranch ? All joking aside this race is a blast and you get to see the middle of nevadas famous and infamaous history.At the finish line there is a huge bbq sponsored by the host casino.That you will want to eat because of a full day of being in the desert.The rooms dave has are only a few hundred feet from the start. You can actualy watch the start of this race the jump in your vehicle and chase him to the pits and beat him there.Then you usaully play leap frog with other pit support people to the other pits all day long."
and
"One thing that makes this race so much fun for everyone is the Herbst Sponsored Western Barbecue, the Awesome Beer Garden and Western Style Breakfast! It’s all there for you right at the Contingency Area, right at the Terrible’s Town Casino parking lot off Main Street. The #1 priority at the Terrible’s Town “250” is for everyone to have a GOOD TIME! Make sure to show up Friday & Saturday nights at Terrible’s Lakeside to hear the Live Bands and view the awesome Fireworks display!"
and
"Okay, you want to hear more about this perfect event we have planned for you! Awesome custom made Trophies, Starter and Finisher Pins, T-Shirts, Dash Plaques, Event Programs, Free Dinner Tickets, Free Drink Tickets for all participants, and a BIG beautiful Perpetual Trophy to the 1st Overall Car/Truck Winner, and don’t forget the awesome Overall Winners Jackets."

is anyone coming from as far away as Kansas? I would love to partake in the festivities, but I am a bit far away, unless there is anyone heading from my direction. I know a fair amount about most vehicles- Fords, Jeeps, Toys, and I have a nissan Pathy that I turn the wrenches on. I am also capable of lifting the weights- a college student, age 21. If needing my help, email me at mosstheboss80@hotmail.com. I am not able to drive the distance, but again, if there is anybody coming from my area, I would be there.
