Hi my name is Troy Robinson, I've been around off-road racing my entire life (34 1/2 years now) in all aspects: promoting, organizing, racing (driving and codriving), crewing, pre-running, spectating, photography, journalism, fabrication--you name it, i've done it. I currently drive a Total Chaos fitted Toyota 4Runner and have a top notch street legal class 5 baja bug (currently for sale in the classifieds). Being a LocosMocos.com crew I know about race-dezert.com and check here everyday for the latest. Out of everything I've done in my life nothing has been as hard as getting to be able to post on here. Not bashing, I guess it's just my computer skills.

I work full time as a dockworker and part-time building stuff from steel, i.e., fencing, bumpers, cages, etc. I bump around town in a 97 ranger, I've got a lot of parts for it, but no time to put it all together. nice to meet ya [img]http://www.race-dezert.com/vb3/attachments/old/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
Hello! I think I'm doing this backward because I signed up a few weeks ago and just learned about this place to introduce myself- please accept my apologies!
Anyhow- I am Meybel (May-Bell) but you can call me Mey. 24 yr. old Latina, short 5'3/4"... that's where LBGIrl comes from: Little Brown Girl- silly I know!
I have a Black Beauty: 1999 Toyota Tacoma, 2wd and it's nice and loud! VRRRM! I would tell you more details but I'm honestly not sure- so I'll get back to you on that one!
I am a newbie to the desert racing world. Introduced to it a couple of years ago through my X-boy and loved it! But haven't had a chance to go out to it unless my friends invite/take me. But that's a reason why I got a truck! I never ever thought about getting one until I discovered the desert!
I am a Human Resource Administrator and hope to one day become a HR Director (yayy!), I LOVE to dance just about to any kind of music as long as I can either A. dance to it or B. Learn it! I do lean towards Salsa more than anything though- I love it, the flavor just runs through my veins I guess! *giggle*
Oh and yeah I love to hang out! Even though I'm a girly-girl at times I usually prefer to hang out with a bunch of guy-friends and do what guys do... drink some beer, watch tv and an occassional burp hehe! [img]http://www.race-dezert.com/vb3/attachments/old/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
Hello,
My name is James 'Harpo' Walker I'm 35 yrs. old have a great family and have lived in Barstow most all of my life. I've been involved in off-road racing for over 30 yrs. My father, Johnny Walker, along with several other businessmen, started off-road racing in Barstow in the early seventies. He also was the owner of several successful unlimited race cars all known as "The Spirit of Barstow" from 1971-1979. The first was a 1971 Funco SS1 and the last three were all Sandwinders. "The Spirit of Barstow" has had several well known drivers such as, Don Roundtree, Dub Smith, Bob Maynard, and Brian Skipper. The car won several big races and was very competitive. After my father retired (when I was getting old enough to drive) I began racing with J.D. Ward/Terry Jeffers in class 10 and 1/2-1600. We were always competitive and did fairly well for the budget we had to race on. During that time I also raced a Quad in the La Rana Desert Series winning the class championship in 1994. I'm now with the Rick Johnson/Rob Rinertson Protruck team. This is a great team with a great bunch of guys. So if you see one of us in our red T-shirts at the races, come say hi. I love to meet new people with the same passion that I have for this great & exciting sport of off-road racing.
