Man what a great weekend. I rode with Don on Saturday and we had a clean run with no issues to take the win. Sunday Tom (BajaF250) was scheduled to ride but his freakishly long torso had his head rubbing the roof and his Navy training would not allow him to slouch down in the seat so Craig got the nod to ride and it was the ride of a life time. We have never had such an epic battle. It was close the whole way with a couple of lead changes and infact a little rubbing happened when Don tried to duck under the Jeep to retake the lead and the Jeep unknowingly cut down on them causing Don to drive over their left front tire, then fender, then the hood. The Bunch crew was right there the whole time and we managed to sweak out the win by 3 seconds. It dosen't get any closer than that. Can't wait for San Felipe.

Yes, rear suspension. Savage pulled them off after Day 1, iirc, and measured things.ChaseTruck754 wrote:DQed due to rear susp. or some other odd reason?

I agree! I would rather see this C3 race than TT's. Somebody must have something.Broncodawg wrote:Picked a fine race to miss darn it! 3 seconds! Bring some video!

We were across from the yellow class 3 bronco in the pits. (I think this is Dave or gunit from what I gather on here). I had a chance to go stick my head under it with the owners brothers permission and saw that one of the rear coil overs was zip tied up and out of the way leading me to believe he had a mechanical failure. This is all an assumption. Bummed I didn't get a chance to meet one of the bronco geeks in real life. The beams on that thing are pure sex. Wondering of theres a jig not being used for it ..... =)
