who?
why would it be interesting?
never thought any car racer was interesting... just saying,.. car racing is Boring except those brief moments when the cars crash (or if driver is a
woman that does justice to a bikini)willardguy - 5-22-2012 at 02:19 PM
If I were you when I saw something posted on the baja off road forum I'd just skip down! msteve1014 - 5-22-2012 at 04:43 PM
I think it will be great to see him here. Maybe some CAR guys will come over some day for the goat. He can pedal down to tell them how wrong they are
living their lives.chuckie - 5-22-2012 at 07:05 PM
Just sayingGoat, if you aint interested , skip it...Several big time rally guys have been in Baja in the past, had fun, cant remember how they
performed...I have never understoood why The World Rally people dont promote something here? The NORRA 1000 was really a Rally with Vintage Iron..and
a true blast...We are thinking about putting one of our 5-16 cars back together and doing it next year..old guys in old cars, going fast...bufeo - 5-23-2012 at 10:25 AM
We met Marc several years ago when Andy and Chris were riding the rally bikes for KTM as well. He had come over to participate in the BITD Nevada
1000. He was impressed with the difficulty of that race (organized similar to a rally-raid) and the terrain, and had lots of compliments for the
competitors on bikes. It'll be good to see him in the '500'. He's a great competitor.

I think it's great for him to race in it. I like to see competition between teams and manufactures. I wonder however if Honda is backing away like
Kawasaki did in the 90s after Danny Hamel was killed. For now it still looks like a good race with KTM, Honda and Kawasaki in it.bufeo - 5-23-2012 at 06:52 PM

I think it's good to see Marc in the race as well. Kawi's reasons for 'backing away' I think are quite different from Honda's, but I'm only a
spectator. I do think, from any standpoint, having those three manufacturers involved can be nothing but good for the series and the sport.
Marc will bring some coverage that wasn't there before.

okay race fans, heres the deal. marc will be filling in for injured quinn cody on the 7X bike of caselli, brown and ivan ramirez. hows that for a KTM
team?bufeo - 5-30-2012 at 06:56 PM
That's a good team. I guess if you can't have a 'Q'C an 'M'C will work.
