This week is one that will be remembered for a while. SCORE set out to enforce its rules to the fullest by analyzing every tracking device issued prior to the Baja 500. Penalties where swift and completely changed the official results from the preliminary unofficial results published last week. This has never happened in Desert Racing history and RDC became a hub of news as they developed.

  • Last weekend the SCORE Baja 500 held place and just like after any other large off-road race there are lots of things to report from. This one is no exception. Our forum is buzzing with photos, videos, good and bad Baja stories, complaints and praises and then some.
  • The last race brought up some thoughts on cheating and one of our staff writers put his thoughts on the subject. Read “Baja 500 Official results…”  http://race-dezert.com/home/?p=1800
  • Today a new thread started asking the question, should you be able to race a trophy truck just because you have one? This thread actually has quite a few trophy truck drivers themselves posting in it. It brings up a few questions such as, should you have to get a license to race a trophy truck? Should there be qualifying at SCORE races for trophy truck and class 1? It even brought some people out of the wood work who have not posted for quite some time. Check it out here: http://www.race-dezert.com/forum/showthread.php?t=65033
  • Robby Gordon came under fire after the SCORE San Felipe 250 race for alleged course cutting and now there is a new thread showing video of him re-fueling on the highway. RDC forum members have a variety of opinions on the incident. http://www.race-dezert.com/forum/showthread.php?t=65009
  • The May edition of RDC Video of the month is online now. This time we feature the DRIVE RDC 250 race! Yes, we where the host of an off-road race. Imagine that. http://race-dezert.com/vom/2009/

  • A thread has started about which high dollar prerunner in existence is the “baddest” one out there.

Let us know which one you think is the best out there: http://www.race-dezert.com/forum/showthread.php?t=64423

They started an update thread on their journey which can be seen here: http://www.race-dezert.com/forum/showthread.php?t=64016
