I took 3 of the kids yesterday for opening day here in San Diego.
It was excellent. All of the critical reviews I saw said "blah blah this" or "blah blah missing that" ... yada yada. I couldn't disagree more. Good
story lines, following a motorcycle rider having a go at it solo (loco), Robby Gordon & his trophy truck, the McMillan's class 1 vehicles, class
11, and a female team in a challenger (? - number BC-10) entry.
Four thumbs-up... way-up.

an unreal film - the editting alone is easy oscar stuff, if it isn't nominated i will be surprized. i don't expect it to be huge at box office though
as it is kind of a specialized market. can't wait to show it on DVD in my home theater.
but the best sport film i have ever seen and extremely well done - pleasure to sit next to Bufeo who is Dad in law to Andy Grider who is a featured
player in the movie - he's all over it!
thx Bufeo!!

After spending 3 days on the trail with Baja Explorer, we got to see him on the big screen shaking hands with Coco! What a great thing to see. This
film had a 1st class feel start to finish - you could feel how this was a labor of love for all of those involved.
right on Ken!

that was a great shot! the two of them standing together each with a peg leg, sort of looking like a couple of misplaced piratas! as soon as i can get
a DVD i'm going to save a still image of that moment, then send it to a commercial color plotter and create a poster 2x3.
