I was out at Llano Colorado
Were you with Householders crew? Me and a two team mates walked over to the chase truck and was chatting with two of the crew members.
Putting a prerunner on the course to carry parts is plain selfish. No other way around it. Your putting your guy and your race ahead of everyone that gets held up by your prerunner with no consideration for the other guys investment in the race what-so-ever.
If you can't come up with 1 more chase truck to follow down the pacific then you should be up in Cali doing the lap race thing until you're team is ready for Baja.
The cool thing about baja is that if your guy has a problem it's okay to go in and help. That does not make it okay to throw a chase vehicle out there just in case.....
Of course that's the easiest way to do it but that don't make it right and your still being incredibly self centered by ruining other peoples race just to make it easier on yourself......
If that's really how you wanna roll then you need to enter the car in sportsman and deal with waiting for it to get there!

I had one of Baldwin's prerunner (Josh) jump in front of me at the Baja 250. It was right after the meadows and I was catching one of the LVDC cars. They seemed like every time I would get close they would push harder. They dove out of the way as I went to hit them. If you want a chase vehicle to be behind your vehicle then you should enter them in the race. If your car breaks get on course and pull off at first sign of anyone coming.
Do those that have a problem with this have the same issue when teams enter a prerunner in the race at US races?
