Default San Felipe 250 Trophy truck 57

Wish us luck

We will be racing the san felipe 250 this week. Truck 57 "Mike Palmer"

We drew starting position 11 which is great because the first ten were locked in from the BAJA 1000

Score-International - Starting Positions For San Felipe 250

Hopefully I'll have internet access so I can update our trip and add pics.

Leaving in 4 hours

Good luck. I was in Calexico Yesterday and saw the Mcmillions heading down. I was wondering what was going on. Have fun, and be safe.

Spent most the day yesterday shock testing with Jesse James over at King shocks. He's a pretty good dude and I told him anything our crew can do for him let us know and he said the same for us as well. That's a good alliance for us since we're kinda some outlaws ourselves.

Looking over our data from testing we found the tranny was getting hot ( 260 ) so hopefully we have no problems. We called Shannon and our getting another one just in case! With the rear motor design it will hurt us bad to try and swap it out.

Got to run for now hopefully pics and videos by tonight
