I believe were coming in this weekend for the offroad festivities. As long as my Daughter in Law doesn't decide to pop out my 8th grandchild this week.....

I drove the 170 course today. Going to take my son back tomorrow and have him run a few laps. 44 cars in his class on a 2.5 mile course is going to be nuts. Should be some good action.

We burned laps this weekend on the big course. Me and my daughter will be racing in the Pro turbo desert race Saturday. It’s definitely going to be a tight technical course. Probably a 35-40 mph average. To bad they couldn’t have the festivities in town instead of out at the start line, a lot of crap had to be change due to Covid it sounds like.

My 8 year old did 5 laps on the 170 course today. Pretty rough, but he said he likes it. I’m going to switch to larger tires and gear it to top out around 40-45 mph. Putting the 170 on my buddy’s chassis dyno tomorrow to do some tuning. Pretty funny seeing the little thing make 10 or so horsepower to the rear tires.

Unless you know someone racing, it takes a lot of endurance to watch SXS's go around.

If by endurance you mean beer, well I can fit a lot in the bed of my truck..

With enough friends and beer pretty much anything becomes a decent spectator sport. ;) :)

Any time. You know how to reach me. You’re kids are welcome to drive my son’s car to feel it out. Or bring that new rv to one of our races and check it out. We’re in havasu this weekend, and I’m taking my rv to Blythe next weekend for a WORCS race. After that we don’t race until Halloween in page, then on the island in havasu november 7 and 8.

Making power on the dyno. Not much, but power none the less.
