HAVN'T updated in a while. Raced Snore Battle at Primm, no problems other than a couple burnt plug wires. Finished 12th out of 72 in class. Not bad.

Then onto the April Mojave 250 MDR Race. Started out strong at a pace only a minute or 2 per lap behind the leader. Lap 2 starts, do a co-driver change, about MM12 get a rear flat trying to pass a buggy. swap that out and continue on. Lap 4 starts, switch co-driver again, move on without any problems till MM6 on lap 5, got a front flat, drove a couple miles to a pit changed it and went on for a solid 2nd place finish.

Here's a little video.

Now onto this past weekend. Went out to the MDR Ridgecrest 200. it as 4 22mile laps. Came out friday around noon, did a pre run lap where a friend in hi sbug blew the motor, so that got cut a bit short. Started out the first lap, it was super dusty but were making good time. Passed everyone who started infront of us and only got passed once around mile 18 by the soon to be leader greg sunds in 1465. Continued on about 1 minute slower a lap than him, started the 3rd lap and immediately had a flat front tire, i dented the rim a couple miles earlier and it finally went flat. Changed that and was cruising along when I hit a couple rocks on the course, smacked my rearend and rear tires good, but no flats. went another mile or so, passed another truck when the rearend started howling pretty good. Got out and see the 3rd member smoking. Our Day was done 12 miles into the 3rd lap. The drain plug on the bottom of the rearend came out when we smashed it into the rocks, even with our skid plate on there. Here's some pics from that race.
