RIDE IN A CLASS 1 CAR


If you ever wanted to get a ride in a race car, well here's your chance, sort of.

Rob and crew had a great showing in their class 1 unlimited buggy #116 at the 500. Finishing 8th in class, stopping for a just overturned competitor, showing patience, preparedness, skill, great logistics, overcame a breakdown and they filmed most of the race in car for us.

So go to this link and scroll down through the 4 pages of posts and watch the youtube videos they have put up. At speeds up to 118mph, it almost looks easy.

Enjoy, I know I sure did!

Depends on whether you have a co-driver or not.

More video posted on thread.
"pistol" Pete Sohren up on the rocks, not down the cliff as we heard. He needs to listen to his co-dog.
