I am listening to Weatherman right now: www.race-dezert.com/radio/Then click on the gray WM box. Dave, you know where I can find a list of start times for classes? I have a friend running Class 3 (302) and IRC Tracking shows them no where near the starting line... the other Class 3s are much closer... I am guessing they start much later today. irctracking.com/2008/Baja1000/John

Just heard that TT12 just left the starting line. The first 4 wheel vehicle off the line. j

Sorry John.. I got slammed here at work and never made it back to our/this site....
We blew this one... Oh well next year I guess.. Brian had a h*ll of a lead , then took the mud line got stuck , then dropped the Timing chain , that popped the motor...... done and out of race.
Next race for us ( All Ways racing ) will be the henderson race Dec 5-7th, there will also be trackers but no weatherman.

Sweet ! thanks for posting that link.
Well we had a bad year! We also lost the championship for the best in the desert racing series also.... Chuck had it in the bag till the last 10 miles. We were only 4 points ahead of 2 in class for this years championship, Chuck and Charley Mcdowell (sp?) started side by side and they battled all day till the 3rd lap when Chuck got a nice lead and pulled away.... lap 4 with only 10miles to go Chuck got a flat and before he could stop to change it , the wheel sheered off the studs...... we lost ........... Ended up 2nd in points for the year.. OH well ..
