On our way to Parker for the 425!

Very cool.
 
Hey there 1701.. 1773 here.. Is was great racing against you at Parker. Sorry to hear about your misfortune! That course sure is know for creating issues for all racers.. It looked like a bone yard out there during the 2 lap.

Get the bugs worked out and get her ready for the Mint! From what I hear it is going to be a fun one and no TT or class 1's running us over!!!

I have my doubts about that.

As I understand it, the TT's and such will start at Noon, while the other classes start at 6am. If the starts take an hour, we'll be toward the back of that, so we might hit the course around 7am. 5 hours between them and us. They'll still catch up and lap us I bet.

Sounds like the course will be rough like Henderson, if that ends up being the case you will definitely see traffic.
 
If the Mint this year is similar to the race course last year, honeslty I can only remember the rock garden being to worst. If we start at 6am, chances it will be a side by side start, 30 second intervals, we should be at least half way or more before they start.

Remember, the slower classes.. We do not have much in this field. So it shouldnt take very long to get going on race!
 
Here's a cellphone based video I put together. We'll have the good one coming soon.

I shot this while at the start and during the first lap while I was on the pit crew and before I was in the car. I shoot it mostly for my local enthusiasts.

What! you couldn't wait until we (1786) started the race - :D
 
No Worries, just giving you a hard time :D
I searched youtube last night and found a few pieces of our Jeep on different sections of the course
 
FYI. ....We are told that the Mint this year is out of Jean. Two 200 mile races. Slower half of the field goes at sun-up and the faster half go at midday. So there should not be any problems of Jeepspeed cars getting lapped.

Two 85 mile laps, the Mint 170. Wish it was longer.
