Baja Auto Cross Race 2 July. 20, 2008
This was a whole different monster, These are Off-Road models that are trying to run on pavement yet retain the off-road suspension for the obsitcles set on the track. I ran a FG Baja 2wd I forgot my Hurricane On-road gearing at the shop and had a 7 1/2 hour drive there was no way to i could race the Hurricane. But it worked out well, This was the finishing order.

Milestone MX series race 3 2008.
This was a very exciting race and every driver is getting more competitive. I grab TQ with the 4wd Hurricane C5 with a 10 second lead over the competition.
In A main I grab a quick lead above the rest the only driver that was the closest was Rodney ketchum. As time drew on I gained a nice size lead. With nothing in front of me but lapped traffic I started to move forward on the leading gap, but to my amazement one of the drivers that i had three laps on decided to horse whip my car full throttle and shatter my servo saver. This knocked me out of the race for a few minutes, althought I was able to repair my rig I had lost to much time to grab a podium spot but that did not stop me from lapping the entire field a few times before the race was over.
But you know what they say rubbing is racing!
Thanks to all participants in the race and a special thanks to all the people that turnmarshalled the race!
