Ultra4 July 11-12 Glen Helen
I mentioned it in my build thread but thought I'd post it here too.
We are running our go fast bronco (class 3 desert racer) in the Ultra4 race this weekend at Glen Helen.
Camping in the pits, please stop by and introduce yourselves if you get a chance to make it out.
Should be fun!

I'm sorry I missed this, I would have really like to see this event. Just busy with work, not getting on GFB much lately. So how did it go?

It went fine until it didn't. Broke a front axle shaft in practice. Skipped quals. Replaced axle next morning and started heat race at the back. Broke another front axle shaft a couple laps in. Then was told we had moved up enough to make the main event, pretty cool. Then the left front corner tore off, exactly the same as it did at the 1000 last year. Here are some carnage pics. Upgrade details in my build thread. Ultra4 was cool and I'll run one of those again some time. Well run event and great people all around.
