Baja racing trip

[Crusty old shellback]

So I broke down and went back to Baja for the Baja 400.
1600 mile round trip from Reno to Baja.
Had some fun. But we DNFed the race at RM 180 where I was to pit the truck. Cooling component cracked and failed. JB weld didn't hold, so we were out.

On a side note. Filled with Reno gas and got 16.7 MPG on the way to Bishop. From there I used Cali gas and MPG dropped to 13.
Total trip mpg was 13.4

The new race truck for this year. Jimco AWD Trophy Truck.

Yea, he's been kicking butt in a AWD with Luke at the 1000.
Hopefully they get the bugs worked out on this one. It's a Jimco designed/built truck. Owners of Jimco are super cool. Got to meet the 3 of them at the race.
