Baja 500
- Thread starter baja specialist
- Start date
Last year side bets were going on every race, this year there has been a different winner at each race so far. Wonder if that has changed the side bets
I can't wait for Baja. We aren't filming, sorry guys, but we will be there shooting photos and I will be drinking beer and having fun. Planning to watch the start at the canal then drive down and wait for all you slow asses to come through Erindira!! Viva Baja!

Just whatever SCORE is tracking. We will do our best for updates but without a full team chasing it makes it hard for us. You have access to more info stateside then we will down south.
Now we're talking!!!! I think George and Reid have been brainstorming together

Obviously cheering for Jagged, but I also think if Wayne Matlock get the bugs worked out of his Jimco RZR, he could be in the thick of things.
I was putting in massive hours before I left, and was beginning to gel w the new chassis. I don't think anyone is as intimate with the chassis as I was, so I expect more teething pains as a result. Although I wouldn't put marc as a favorite, it is baja, and if he has comparable downtime as his fompetitionx he will be very difficult to beat. If I were to bet, it would have to be on Moneybags, as the MB motorsports rzr has not proven to be reliable yet this season. I will say that passing him may prove to be rather difficult, and he knows lines that few others, if any in his class knows . He can pass you back without you physically seeing him do it. Moneybags is closing in on marcs level of driving, so it should be exciting to watch. I'm glad not to be there, because as anyone that followed my chronicles knows, I HATE MEXICO! Good luck to all class 1900 racers from BAM!
#1916 Is all prepped and ready for its first voyage to Baja!! Dan Fisher from LSR and I have teamed up to take on this years Baja 500! Although this is both of ours first experience with Baja we both feel confident that we have what it takes and the car to be a major competitor in this race. Cant wait to get the party started!!!

We went out testing with Fox on Wednesday and we are really excited about how well the car is working. Heading down Bright and early tomorrow morning for a fun filled week of pre running. Can't wait to get down there and start doing some homework.
To the contrary.....#1938 decided at the last minute to jump in and we couldn't be more unprepared or less confident. We haven't finished a race all year and we fully expect to extend that streak. Duct Tape and Zip Tie inc are our sponsors for this race. Ok it's not that bad but we are doing this race with people from both sides of the border who have never raced together. I'm excited about the unknown of doing this race with local racers from Ensenada. I think it will be a great experiment!
So anyone dare to venture a guess at what our odds of finishing are? Or better yet podium? C'mon someone make this interesting.....btw Johnny I have extra sphericals if u need one... Lol
Sure you want to race??? They arent starting us in the back this time. We are midpack now and those pesky jeeps are are one of the slower classes behind us......Just say'n
Well Jim we will start last or close to it but I think we'll take our chances. So what do you think our odds of finishing might be in your opinion? Now don't get all bashful on me.....jus sayn!Sure you want to race??? They arent starting us in the back this time.
