Baja 500 Start


We are going to Ensenada to watch the starting line of the Trophy Trucks and Bugs. All kinds of interesting people are to be seen; Rednecks, Gabachos and some truly in tune to Baja souls.

I have to admit I am particularly looking forward to seeing the Tecate and Cocacola girls; one of the joys of late spring.

How many people kinda hope Robby Gordon's private helicopter won't take off as he makes his getaway? Can you say"psychotic outburst"?:lol::lol::lol:

Okay Weatherman has confirmation that it is not the military, just lots of traffic on a single lane.

We're still at it...anybody still listening to us on the live internet audio feed from our truck or is it just us and the lonely racers/chasers out here in beautiful Baja? The moon rose about an hour and a half ago but it's only 37% illuminated so it's a dark, dark race course tonight.
