Posted by Jim that the Balls out 250 is going to start by Slash X and will be a 33 mi. loop.
More info to come.
Can't wait!! 990 should have a slightly newer look to it thanks to Trailglow lighting. Hopefully the bling will make the driver smarter!

We will see!! I just ordered pretty much the last parts we will need to get the car together. Now its just a matter of getting it together. I doubt we will be racing, although its a possibility. Hopefully it will at least be done so we can take it out to test! Either way Ill be out there, and If Im not racing, Ill definitely be pitting for you guys if you need it!
Any ideas for colors and graphics on our car??

Not a bad idea! If we bring it out and arent racing in March, and you happen to break, we can just put some 990 stickers on it and keep you going!
Ok! Sounds good, Ill definitely be there and able to help out! Even if we are racing, I doubt it, but who knows, we can pit together, and we'll have some people out there to set up other pits.

We had a rough ride this time. Broke upper ball joint twice, ripped off the rear shock mount and re welded twice, finally a third time the shock and re-weld mount came off, 3 rear flats cutting the rims at the beads each time all 3 wheels. Finally finished on 3 shocks, no upper ball joint and I even managed to break the seat in half too.
Special Thanks to the Acme and the Davidsons/OMA MM5 for your help and to my race buddies Ron and Paul who put in the extra effort for me.

Seemed like the 9's were doing battle til the end. Kwood congrats on longer day, looked like you all had a good time and that is what counts. Thanks again everyone, I wish I personally was making the May race but Matt and Gary will be putting the 990 out there as a force of contention.....congrats to all on a great race.

Definitely a really fun day, it was awesome racing with you guys on the fourth lap, especially when you shot past us like a rocket over that hill! Too bad we both had problems towards the end of that lap though. Congrats again on another strong finish.

I dont even know where to begin, I exploded a rear drum and at the same time I fractured my left wrist trying to keep the car on the course and on four wheels and then 20 miles later had to call it a day after an axle end casting broke. Congrats to Nate and Chris on their win and to everyone who finished, although the course was very fast many cars ended up on a tow rope so a finish is definetly worth something.

I dont even know where to begin, I exploded a rear drum and at the same time I fractured my left wrist trying to keep the car on the course and on four wheels and then 20 miles later had to call it a day after an axle end casting broke. Congrats to Nate and Chris on their win and to everyone who finished, although the course was very fast many cars ended up on a tow rope so a finish is definetly worth something.
Damn Bud, that sucks!!! At least you can start dating your other hand now for awhile. Every cloud has a silver lining.

Hey bud sorry to hear about your problems, it must have been a hand full (no pun intended) keeping it rubber side down. I know you were hauling when you passed me around race mile 2 or 3. Hope your not hurt that bad and can make it for the race in May.

Cody is going in today to see if he has a broken thumb. He hit a dead car in the wash at full speed in the dust. Corey brought the wounded duck around for third place.

Thanks everyone for letting come down from Sacramento and racing with you guys. It was last minute so I didn't have much pit help. Thanks Chris Haney for your help, and the Davidsons there for any help I needed. I had my engine builder from Las Vegas help me out and he drove the first 2 plus laps, his first desert racing driving ever so it was great from him to get the car to me. We had a blinking oil light the whole day and he got a flat on the second lap. I got in halfway through the third lap and had to play catch up the rest of the day. I have to hand it to you guys that was one rough course, but I'll take a second place for my first ever trip to barstow. Hey Bud I hope your wrist recovers. Next time to barstow I'll study more. Great Job to #987 for consistent winning laps. I was just happy to load it on the trailer and not tow it out of those mountains. Peace Forest Creasy Team Mach 5.

Talked with rash after the race, they got driven over not sure of the details but it caused some damage on the right side, then later they lost the left side and snapped an axle...rough day for them. I ma sure they will post the details though.

Sorry to hear about the Rash car that sucks. We were also taken for a ride by a 1400 truck on lap 5 going down the hill into the sand wash before the first hodge road crossing. It was our first race ever in a 9 car and I drove the whole way. Our plan was just to try and finish and not run upfront. By the 5th lap I was getting pretty tired and didnt want to get in any of the fast guys way so I was driving way of the race line. Then with no warning, no tap we were taken for a ride.

Thats not cool...it seemed like horn use was pretty minimal this race, we had a big problem with bikes/quads on the course, we had on close coming out of start finish that I could have reached out and smacked the guy and another real close one with a bike coming up a hill on the course as we were coming down. Did you get the number on the truck? Hope there was no damage for you.

Hope it heals up well Bud! As always it was good to see you. We did end up breaking a ball joint after you and I talked. Quite a bummer:mad: I should have just changed it in the pits rather than take a risk. Oh well, live and learn.
It was nice meeting you Forest! Hope you can make the Big race in May!
Congrats to all!! It was not the nicest course but it was fun!

First congrats to Nate & Chris they were movin all day. Cody was hit by a 1400 truck that took out the right spindle and some body panel damage. We still have to talk to them in person. It is the desert.:(Then on the last lap I broke the right spindle and while trying to get to our next pit with the broken spindle I broke an axle. Big Thanks to Grandma & Mom, Dad for the great prep, my wife & son, Gary Seagroves for the car and pit support;), brothers and the Durston and Lemaster clan.

Well, first off congrats to Nate and Chris. I don't know who drove the first half, but that was some fun racing. Here are some pictures. The 1400 truck hit me from the side and ran over the hood of the car. The rearend of the truck grabbed the front tire and bent the arms and spindle. First time I have ever had a 35 in. tire on my hood in a race. I think he wanted me to check his air pressure? I guess that is offroad racing or is it???????????????

I wonder if the 1400 that got into you guys was the same one that got DQ'd at the Oraf 500 last year for excessive nerfing. Apparently he was banned but maybe he got it lifted? It's a white Ranger...the owner refers to it as a "Trophy Ranger"

thats just wrong--I would be hunting down those "FLATBILLERS"--

Car was hooked up until then, looked really good-

The "Trophy Ranger" wasn't at this race so it couldn't have been him, but I did read somewhere that he plans to be at the 500 this year.

Different guy. That was John Vaughan. By the way he was absolved of all wrongdoing by Jim. He was DQ'd before even talking to him about the incident
