Re: Tracking International V2R LIVE!

Spoke with Lasher just after the driver change at Pit3. He says there problem is in the bottom end of the motor, it has no power up hills, down hill and flat is fine. He also is having a linkage problem and has to hold the shifter in place to keep it from popping out. They are thinking a possible motor swap tonight? Might need crowdogs motor afterall.

The 1903 is out of the race it appears and heading north on the highway.

The 1919 continues to haul ace and is plugging away. If the car holds up they should be ahead going into tommorow.

I have the 1902 at 0mph right now and word is they did a motor swap or needed to do one? He is sitting at RM106.

The TT's and Class1's are ripping by these guys so if you see them at 0mph it could be because they are pulled over so the bigger faster cars and trucks can go by!

More updates later!

Re: Tracking International V2R LIVE!

Spoke to lasher again, Motor is seized they are towing it into a small town and will use their free pass today. They will get it up to the start finish line and swap motors to be ready for tommorow. Bummer news but thats racing! Glad to see the other UTV's still hauling butt!

Re: Tracking International V2R LIVE!

bummer.. thank goodness for the free day! and it cant be used on the last day. so today is a good day to use it!!! be fresh and ready in the morning...

1903 is at the finish line... he made it safety...

jagged x gets passed by leading class1/tt at mile 290 around 35 mpg... not too bad.. jagged is 20 miles ahead of the game.. casey predicted the big guys would catch the UTV's at the last 60 miles.. good job to jagged and everyone out there. tomorrow should be nicer since it should be COOLER temps!

Re: Tracking International V2R LIVE!

So they are allowing motor swaps in this race? Or people are just doing them to say that they raced and finished?

Re: Tracking International V2R LIVE!

you can get a free pass for 1 day only where you do not have to finish... i know there are time penaltys and you can swap a motor or a tranny!

jagged is on the final stretch. 10 miles in the lead with just over 20 miles to the finish! with the bi-polar artic cat 1000 making tracks in second... hes been slowly closing the gap
