It is being reported and confirmed that Kurt Caselli hit a boobie trap and died of head trauma near the end of the race, RM 796.
What a drag if this turns out to be true.BornFisher - 11-16-2013 at 12:02 AM
OMG, just horrible. An accident is one thing, a boobie trap another. Prayers to Kurt`s family.

I can't believe I just heard the live Score announcer talk all about the 1x winning the race after describing the race-long dice with Caselli. They
have to know that Kurt is dead and SCORE doesn't seem to have the nuts to cope and deal with reality. They just ignored the fact that the guy who
would obviously have been in 2nd. place just sorta didn't show up.

I listened to a delayed broadcast of a live feed from Weatherman on Picacho Diablo as he reported 1X through checkpoint 7, it was ten minutes til 2:00
this morning when someone had already radioed-in wondering where the 2X was. Many minutes passed and just when the news of Kurt's accident should have
been getting back to Weatherman, SCORE shut off the audio feed.David K - 11-16-2013 at 10:08 AM
Sad news on Caselli, specially if it was the locals' booby trap causing the accident. Best to have confirmed news before pointing fingers...BajaNomad - 11-16-2013 at 10:16 AM
