I dont know cut off on a point to point?

I hate to see anyone DNF on such a long race, so much time and commitment is involved sucks for sure. I ran a few Baja races and fortunatly I always finished, but lots dont!

My buddy Victor is about 60 miles from winning class 7, I bet his nerves are shot just praying the truck goes a few more miles.

I'm showing #1806 in the lead, followed by #1805, and #1803. All in motion!

Are 1805/1806 on the same team? It always seems that the guys that keep the cars basically stock and run in pairs finish the race. Just like the AC guys a couple years ago. Looks like they will finish strong again.

What class is a Segway!!!

Im sure all the teams are stressed...My friend in class 7 was leading up to the last 60 miles and lost a wheel bearing ended up 2nd.

I never did a point to point 1000, thats way longer than the normal loop, I hope the guys who are close will make it! there about 150-300 miles out! They got to keep moving at a good pace.

Supposibly the Hawk Teryx is leading, but lost its transponder back at mile 400, I wonder what the rule is for a lost or malfunctioning trandsponder, there must be one or some of the local racers would rip em off and cut the corse through ranches

The 1802 has a 1000cc Apex engine in it. FWIW. Pro UTV is going to be awesome.


RM420ish. Not sure who, think it was the Mexican team. Bummer.
I was looking your pics from the cars at the starting line and none of them look like this car. Did you not take a photo of every car at the start?

Jason pointed it out. RZR bolt in cage mounts, play or chase car.

Cody & I have been watching this and talking, he said if he didnt crash the 570 would make it no problem. He definitely believes in that little car...
hmmm..
