BOR racing

[MasterPull]

Do any of you guys ever do the BOR series of races? I went down last weekend and co-drove for RumbleGoat Racing out of Eastern Washington during the Wendover 300, they have a 2005 or so ford ranger 2wd.

Never done BOR, but love the Rumble-Goat guys. They're a great, dedicated bunch! Next year we're going to have a 7300 truck, and if I have to be beaten by a Ford, it wouldn't bother me a bit if it's them.

I posted up a link to the last BOR race and nobody was interested so I didn't even think about this time around.

I was driving/codriving the sabotage 72xx and I look forward to seeing you guys out there again.

By all means, please share! Feedback from actual participants and spectators will help drum up more interest. I'd love to attend some BOR events. They need to do a better job of promoting and more detailed info on their website regarding upcoming events, race stats from recent events and photos of the events, IMO.

The track was great, the racers for the most part are all very cool, Allen gerber( mr. Bor) is a good guy. I have not seen many pictures but here are a couple from after the race...

Holy crap, did the tread totally separate from the tire on that baja?

 

[GrimmJeeper]

looks like it blew and shredded. I had a similar thing happen to me on a FC2

notice the missing valve stem, I think it ripped out and deflated the tire. the other 3 were pretty cracked up and in poor shape. check your valve stems where they go through the rim every once in awhile, I do now

 

[slcpunk74]

Valve stems were in good shape... When we lost the tires we had to keep driving to get off the course for a safe repair. The stuff we had to drive through was dry rough and I know at least one of the tires went from a sidewall puncture but the major portion of the damage was due to driving on a flat tire through rocks.

I tried to make it to the one you posted slcpunk. Just to watch but couldn't make it bcuz of work. Please keep posting em! I agree w xjeeper, they need to promote more. It would help me (and probably others) remember about this awesome set of events we have here.

 

[slcpunk74]

I will post it up next year. Expect another wendover race sometime around april

I think they have the wendover 300 in april, and the rewound in august?
