San Felipe 250 Video - Big Drops Into A Wash At Race Mile 100

I was pitting with Mag7 last weekend at the San Felipe 250 and got some fun footage. About a quarter mile south of our pit there was a 15 foot drop off into a really silty wash that made for some exiting moments. Enjoy!

That drop off looked wicked!:o
I hope the drivers had a decent breathing system.

Unfortunately I was a half mile north of here when the bikes and quads came through. I got some good footage of them going through a long chain of whoops, but it just did not compare to the footage of the cars going through the wash.

Yes, the race course doesn't double back on itself... too dangerous.

Geoff was at Race Mile 100... here is the southern half of the course:
