Vegas to Reno
V2R is in a few weeks, I'm planning on being out with my dad and brother and camping out somwhere by Reno and watching everyone going by. Anyone on here going to race, chase or spectate?
Be nice to me, I'm learning....and slow in the head...

We're pit bossing again at the Top Gun pit near Fallon and love some company. Will have the MH and a fire will be burning all night so stop by and say hey. Tall american flag will be above the MH.

Re: Vegas to Reno
Not much interest in V2R this year I guess?

Re: Vegas to Reno
Congrats on the class win!!
Great race and had a blast watching RJ come thru first on the road with 66 miles to the finish.
25 mph pit speed sucked, but changes are in the future if we wish to keep racing. Pit bossing is a kick even if you have to find a second wind to stay awake until the 8 am pit closing time. Packed up and drove home Sat as well for some serious nap time, but that's all part of what makes desert racing such a blast.
Video of Norman team changing out driveshaft with engine running!?!? Seemed like forever and bit them when one of the crew called for tranny in neutral to align the yokes and the tranny took off spinning and throwing bolts and wrenches, but the best part is our pit/camp clearly visible out in front of the truck at beginning and end of video.
