WONDERFUL NEWS!!! A Baja Nomad Wins The Baja 500!

TMW - 6-8-2014 at 06:20 PM

Tunaeater races really fast especially when he has a Trophy Truck on his backside. Ask him about Robby Gordon and their race to the finsh line sometime. Paul won and he had a flat front tire.

Tom
Thank you for all the support over the last 10 years. You are always there to take me prerunning and/or going to the middle of baja to do a pit. Looking forward to hooking up again in November at the B1K.
This years Baja 500 was a great race for us. Zero problems, gas and 2 air filter changes and we were good. Appreciate all your help last week. Glad you liked the machaca burritos and cucumber water in Valley T.

David K - 6-14-2014 at 10:28 AM

Elizabeth and I are so happy for your win Paul! I remember when you were just getting started in SCORE races!

You and your pit crew in 2005... full moon rising...

The second I stop doing pits for Kawasaki, they win 2 races in a row! I'm bad luck I guess. :lol::lol::lol:

Stoked for all the racers and the winners. Hate to be a downer, but I was pretty peeed at the chase vehicle that almost ended my vacation before it had even begun. Just south of Manadero, about 0700 near the La Canadas campground, passing uphill, into oncoming traffic. I almost had to drive off the road. I watched him continue to pass recklessly until he was out of site. Really wish I would have gotten his teams number. I'd have been giving them a call. Kids with more testosterone than brains. Hopefully one day they will learn that no race truck is more valuable than their lives.
