Re: NORRA 1000 2014
My Baja racing dream... ....Now that it’s all over all I can say is it was everything I’d dreamed it would be. The highs we’re high and the lows we’re low but the fire in me still burns and I can’t wait for next year. I will be back one way or another, ready to race Baja again until I beat her or u...

Re: NORRA 1000 2014
Yikes, It was great to finally meet you--and a bunch of the GFB guys around the table at Estero Beach! Thanks for the little update. Knew the unfortunate news about #33, but have been trying to figure out why Rick and John's #15 has been limping along so slowly on the tracker for so long. Fingers, k...

I used to push the broom in a shop and was thrown into assembly disassembly and assisted in repair and prep of the race vehicles. So actual seat time and chasing in the desert I've never done. Whil...

A question from a newbie to newbies!
This is directed mostly to the newcomers to the desert off road racing community, but I'd love input from anybody: Is there a website that provides helpful, practical information about how to be physically involved in the sport if you are a newcomer? (If you want to participate in some way, not just...
