Congrats on winning the Parker 425! Another close race with the top 5 all within minutes of each other! Oh yeah, loved the podium speech! You always give a great post race interview and have entertaining stickers. You guys finally are off to a good start and have a chance to string a few good finishes together! Good luck on the rest of the year! 1) Bozzano ( BMS ) 2) Sean Backus ( Mason )...
Just got the news, whats its going on for the 2012 CODE Offroad Championship, with only a month and half to go for the first race, the start of the season looks very promising. along with some prizes and new categories for 2012 season, heres what i know. The schedule, new for this year is were racing 5 point events instead of 6, all 5 races count towards the year end points, on 2011 it was...
I would like to thank all the pit teams (especially Chris from RPM) for all the help saving a fellow racer's life. If it were not for all the other support coming over to assist, it would have been a different result. From providing extra 02 bottles to helping land the helicopter, you all were a God send. I want to thank all of you for your help! RES4CUE
Took well over 2400 photos. Any team wanting their truck photo just let me know. I'm sure I have it. What a race and a few close calls over on riverside dr. I had a blast! Can't wait till October.

So far the entry shows 24 7200's at Parker.......This race is gunna be fun!.......Maybe will have a couple of late entries to increase the list. By the way....The sun will shine on us!!! Good luck to all the 7200 teams!
Am I reading this right? Probably old info to the RDC addicted, but I was just checking out the Parker entry list and Robby Gordon is driver of record for 1537 the RPM Geiser, that is surprising! Rob Mac and RG both in Geisers, everyone better hope they have problems! Now all they're missing is Roesler and it's game, set, match.
Boise Idaho news stations are reporting that Steve Appleton died in a plane crash this morning. Very sad. http://www.forbes.com/sites/ericsavitz/2012/02/03/micron-ceo-steve-appleton-dies-in-small-plane-accident/
Who ended up with the wins in 10, 11, 1600? I think there was almost 30 in 10. Good showing.
Team's reached all it's personal goals at the end of the 2011 season with BITD in CL 10, so its time to prepare for the next challenge! CL 1 is the logical, but are we missing something with CL 7200 besides the initial cost difference?
Video from the transition from Asphalt to Dirt. One Car spins out and one car brakes glow/spark from the heat ... Next their was five of us dirt bike riding near the race corse and a car stopped for help with a flat tire change/pit stop.
Was wondering how many 10's finished Parker did not look like a big percentage. Some were haulin arse faster than I have ever seen but I was busy. Where is the big group going next. Can we get more than 32 the next race that was awesome to see. We personally wont be ready for BAP and our car is a desert car not a short course car 3000 lbs. Nothing against SNORE Please dont take it that way!!! I...
While on the way to staging from the Blue Water, the Ashcraft Trick Truck was following the Swift/Olliges Trick Truck and they noticed something on the #28 that concerned them. Adam and his codriver made a point to get our attention and let us know, and as a result we were able to avert what could have been not only a problem for us but possibly for the spectators. We just wanted to thank them...
Well first off, it's Parker colld!
If anyone finds a Gold colored jack please give me a PM ( should have Western Motorports sticker on it ). It was knocked off our truck by Mr. Souropus in the Corona truck. Thanks Steve !......
Make a sticker or write your blood type on your helmet. Also list if you have any allergic reactions to pain killers / meds, any medical conditions (diabetes, blood disorders, ect). The five minutes it takes may save your life.
Here is a Preview for the great race yesterday. Most cars I have seen in a while!
This is just a friendly reminder to everyone in the racing world. No one ever wants to think that thier car could be the one to catch fire.. but as we all know it happens. After the race in Parker this weekend I wanted to post information regarding the dangers of smoke. Someone with smoke inhalation can get worse quickly. Be prepared to transport quickly If such a person were transported by...
Some shots from Thursday and Saturday.
A few of my favorites from the weekend

Over all it was a great time and a good turn out .Thanks for a great time. Federico Montes you did a great job again this year . Thank You !!!
As I sit here reading all the reports of HDRA looking like the second coming of Jesus, the savior the sport has been "missing" I can't help but think how does anyone think having this many promoters and series is benefiting the sport? This sport has a hard enough time attracting outside sponsors and TV packages with one premier sanctioning body let alone 3,4 or 5 more. As motorsports...
Heard it was on display at the Laughlin race, in Strobel's pit. Anyone check it out? What did you think? Pros/cons?
Congrats to Troy and Gary Messer for putting on a clinic for Trophy Lites. You have the best group of guys. Bear and Rodney your prep and fab second to none. I am always honored to be part of your race and help. Thanks for everything you do. Also Tony, and Walt thanks for helping me
Hey guys just chasing any results, photos, videos etc of the two Aussie cars racing Parker TT13 and the old Ebberts car. Thanks in advance.
Just Wanted to say Congrats To Mikey Childress for a great run and a Third Place. Robbys a tough one to beat. Justin Davis with his Fourth especially starting 41st that's a lot of cars to get through. Don and Travis Chase it seems like we finally got that car working well, I know its taken a little more work then you expected but it seems like its paying off. Brad Etter with the tenth makes 4 of...
