    I didnt think either of those teams would run BFG pits...solely for the few minutes lost if that happens and money isnt as much an option it is for low budget non TT teams

    Just bad timing for Bryce I guess. That's racing!

    I would have been going nuts!

    When we have run multiple trucks though a group pit organization pits 1 and 2 had multiple towers and big crews.

    I passed Bryce and Herbst while they pit, sorry I had to chuckle a bit at my teammate B-rice, then they passed me while we pit but we got them right back on the track....PAB sneaky....one of the green and black ones was inverted but the drivers were out and okay.

    ya we battled with the TSCO TT (& chase crew) and multiple bikes and quads, while the 13 pitted at some of the Baja-pit locations........... i even question some of the pit locations too ... sketchy entrances and exits for the big trucks ---
    not just a "spectator" .....

    If it is bfg, they aren't all that fast. We clowned em while they were pitting Herbst @ the 500 a couple years ago, while we were pitting for Herder in the pine forest @ mm90 or so.. Good times! I just couldn't take sitting in line like that.

    Jason McNeil #50TT was the first Truck to go by in the video.

    THey all (Norman, Steele, Herbst Menzies) got by us a few miles after the silt beds when we pulled over for an exploded wheel.
    AMERICA BLESS GOD!

    You have had your one and only chance with the siren. Jack rabbits get the iron horn next time around.

    I was happy with the sped up pace but did enjoy the exploded wheel.....just a little.
