Dave

Awesome group of wheelers on that list :smokin:

I expect to see Derek's and Nicole's name off that list after PUSU. Who else is going to PUSU?

36 hr drive. we better make top 20. any idea how they are going to set up which of the 2 days we run?

Random draw

Sweet, thanks, I just need 32 people to not show up:flipoff2:

Matt Enochs should be on there as well. I'll get him to call ya.

50 + Teams, thats pretty good!:smokin: So, where are their Bio's?

I can't wait to watch the LCQ, its going to be awesome again, hopefully next year I have to run it!:D Good luck to all on the list, and we'll see 21 of ya in the main event!:smokin:

Rick.

A few Canadians in there too.......Can't wait :beer:

Derek's not coming to PUSU

I really expected more of these names to have signed up for PUSU :shaking: 2 chances are better than one :D

Good to all those running the LCQ

:grinpimp:

Big Rich we wont be at PUSU. Money is tight. If things don't turn around we will be staying close to home.

As of right now KOH is on the bubble for us.

Rick.

I sent in a couple page bio with my app, my 5yr old son even drew a picture in crayon :flipoff2: for the cover of it all :laughing:

I can't wait to race! The mini van is getting a much needed cubic inch increase :D

Aaron Beckstead

Can't wait for the LCQ.:D We have a lot to do between now and then. We'll be ready and plan on making the main race. See you guys on the lakebed!

Good luck to all the LCQ teams. Looks like a experienced field to me. This will be the best racing IMHO. :grinpimp:

Can't wait for this! I remember talking with Dave after last years main race and he said he wasn't sure if there would be a LCQ this year. I told him that the LCQ was actually the best race from a spectators point. It's going to be tough for the guys that run the first day having to wait till the end of the second day to see if they are in or not.

Clayton

Good luck, Thomas, Alan, and Tom W. in the LCQ,

I recognize like half the names on there. What are some of your guy's screen names to start. I know most of you from pirate, almost none of you from the real worlds

And i thought last years was intense! There's some heavy hitters in there, best of luck to all of you. It's ur one shot, make it count!

Awesome group of wheelers on that list :smokin:

Desertfab RAcing will be at PUSU!!

Todd McCullen

I am happy to be racing thanks Samota87 for signing me up for the LCQ


Larry Gipson #96

GiS = Joey Weber


:)

I cant go to pusu because I dont have the vehicle that I will be using for KOH (tubes are being bent for the new car now). If I could have taken a borrowed car, or if I had my new car I would be there. The timing for pusu has never worked for me because I am always in a build/rebuild phase. I hope to make next years though.

Shawn Fisher = Syko

I cannot wait to get to the lakebed!!
The above group has a shit-ton of talent among them. Wow, gonna be a great show for sure.

Getting rid of LCQ would be akin to using Rallycrapper again... I need say no more.

Go DesertFab!!! (Don't f'n roll it this year!)

Larry Gipson #96

:smokin:

I'm David Smiley team 609 Smiley Racing coming out from CT. Ryan Connor of VA is my co-dawg in all this madness. I've raced all the Rausch Creek races this year in my garage built pile but at the LCQ we're going to race something a bit nicer :) We didn't finish the RCQ but came in 6th and 10th in the fall races :smokin:

By way of a bio I'm just a local east coast wheeler but I can honestly say I beat Dave Cole racing in September :smokin: He shoulda ran my donkey rather than Zach's brama :D Having Eugene as his co-driver is probably what really did it in :flipoff2:

Tim from Liquid Iron Industries in NJ better get started with the shop full of parts he has on Monday or we'll be walking the LCQ :flipoff2:

Looking forward to freezing my butt off, being blown around by the wind like I'm in a tent rather than an RV and generally having the time of our lives!

-------> Loren Healy:flipoff2:

-----> Rob Klinger, Team ECORS

<----- Matt Enochs, Team Nasty

Becca not racing this year, already qualified, or got a pass?

I think I read a while back that Dustin is driving with Dallas co-driving.
If I remember correctly Dustin is Jeffs "wildcard" entry

:rainbow:-------> Loren Healy:flipoff2:

Fixed

That's funny coming from a guy who wants to sell his buggy for a TJ!:barf::D

I'm A.J. Condon.
My Co Driver is Stu Wilkinson.
#101 for Bottoms Up Rock Racing, out of Baltimore MD.

Ran in the RCQ, but had a plethora of mechanical failure that Thursday.
We didnt make it far in the race, at all.
Just say... I walked back to start/finish b4 the first guy came thru to finish their first lap. :flipoff2:

I'll be racing the New Rig, "TW2" by Tim at Liquid Iron for the 1st time at the LCQ. (Link in Sig)
I can't wait for this, I've been thinking about not much else.
Hopefully we'll have all the bugs worked out by then.

Seeya all there.
- A.J.

The LCQ should be a gnarly race with some of those names on that list....:smokin: FO SHO!

There are some fierce competitors on that list. With a shorter race and fewer spots.......ought to be some GREAT RACING to watch:beer:

I'd venture to guess that there will be some cats who get taken off X-mas card lists next year too! Friends are not friends during the LCQ!!!:evil:

This is correct. Becca will be there doing what she always does, smiling and having fun, but wont be in the car during the race.

Good luck to everyone in the LCQ. I'm really hoping I get a chance to watch some this year. Hopefully with 2 days of qualifying, and a jeep that isn't freshly built to work on I'll be able to cheer for some of you in person.

Looks like the LCQ list will get shorter after PUSU. There are atleast 3 people who will qualify there.:smokin: Really wish I would have had the cash to go.

With the odds it turned out to be, you probably could have pulled off a paying spot and gotten some fuel paid for LOL
See ya on the lakebed.

Viva Team Mexico. You guys put on a show last year!

LARRY CRUZ ON BY, LOOK FOR THE RV WITH THE MEXICAN FLAG OR LISTEN FOR BONGO AND FOLLOW IT! WE WILL HAVE SOME GOODIES THERE...

THE DRINK OF THE GODS
According to legend, a lightning bolt struck an agave plant and thus mezcal originated, which is why it is considered a drink from the heavens, an "Elixir of the gods". The word mezcal comes from the Nahuatl word mexcalli, which in English means "leaves of cooked Maguey"

$300 usd is the going rate for a bottle of good mezcal in the USA, Japan, Skandinavia, and Spain.

GET READY TO PARTY BONGO STYLE IN THE DESERT! 2 bottles have been snuk in thru homeland security for KOH! Oh yeah and a whole lots of TECATE REEBS!

Leave the Coronas and Tequila for the girls. :grinpimp:

Here are some funny videos of Tecate like the Bud commercials, videos are in spanish but you will understand

http://www.gtorocksracing.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/.pond/kohmap.jpg.w560h292.jpg

i will bring ya'll a few Cerveza's for sure after that ride...

From GTO, GTO MEXICO to KOH - about 3250 kms or almost the 2000 miles
Rig is traveling from Dearborn Heights Michigan to KOH - 2250 miles!

If you add up the miles on both trips it easily hits the 8500+ miles of bongo traveling.

Beer and food is always welcome. The more the merrier! :grinpimp:

Any chance of bringing some of that good ole Georgia Moonshine to keep us warm in the desert:)

Happy holidays!

i'm working on the "spirits" ...

Yes thank you. I knew I should have gotten a refund on my masters degree :)

My question came from this line in Dave's first post:
"Edit: I've already had a few confirmed MIA application. Let me know if you're name is missing."

So I'm reasonably sure the list in post one has not been updated with any additional applications/people who were on the borderline of getting in one time.

Perhaps I'm wrong and the final list of applicants is still at 57 teams. in the grand scheme is probably doesn't matter as several teams who signed up won't make it or crap will even happen on the way to JV or whatever. Since I'm one of the LCQ competitors I was curious to see what the total group has grown too. And a few people got in through PUSU that are on this list.

Theres a list in the very first post in this thread. :roxy:

whats the updated list i know of two teams who are not competing that are on that list

You can take Curtis Warner off the list too. We qualified at PUSU.
http://bc4x4.com/features/2009/pusu/

PONCE!
We'll have to run up the hill to see LCQ again. I'll be a LOT more relaxed now that we don't have to run it. i'm just wondering what Shannon's gonna do for a replacement transmission this time, LOL. I still can't believe your buddy just LIFTED that transmission from the belly of our rig last year!

See ya on the lakebed!
