2017 NORRA Mexican 1000

[manxvair]

Your entry is going to be one of the most "original" looking for sure.

Looks great, and will be neat to meet you down in Ensenada.

Changing to hotels....does everyone have something locked in for Loreto? We have 1 room as it seems NORRA or the guy they are using has everything under their control.

Try contacting Winnie Meyers she made all of reservations for hotels and such.

Hey guys, I thought I'd reach out and see how everyone's Manx are coming along?

I had given up on my super sexy Jamar pedals when I thought I could actually get it built in time for the event but now that I'm not I have spent a bunch of time trying to get them to work......I've got the clutch pedal and reservoir mounted!

I was thinking the other day.....I couldn't remember how all the teams are coming together.......for my Bronco team, I am going to be driving one of our Chase vehicles when my buddy Andrew is driving the race bronco. He does 50% of the driving.....I was wondering if any of the teams had an open "navigator spot" and then one one day when Andrew is not racing, if I could "pay to play" as a passenger/rider.....(if anyone had a spot open).... I would be very interested in talking to any of you.

Just something I was thinking about and wanted to throw out there as we get closer and my "Baja Fever" increases

Hope all projects are coming along well -- Eric

NORRA Training went well for Paul Mabin and I last week-end. Thanks to our captain Mark and his wife Donna for hosting us at the Bullhead Inn training grounds.

A few videos of our testing last week in AZ:

Mark mentioned he was going to get the blue tiger wrap, looks great. That is an awesome Tow'd.

The Inchworm, (el Gusano), is just about ready to go.

Looking super oldskool! Super excited to see it in person later this week.

Hope everyone has safe travels down later this week.

My wonderful husband left this morning for his dream. To be sure he will be fully ready for the race, he changed a shock on my Mazda yesterday and I tried to time him and he did pretty well. Go Team Subi Tow'd #166. Get back home in one piece. Love you xxx

I'm hoping everyone has a great time and that they come home safe. I'm looking forward to November...

#302 is gonna bring home the trophy.. we were lucky enough to see this fine machine out in the Mojave desert.. was told this is a 50th anniversary body owned by the Darios.. coil overs all around, subi powered, and. looks so fun..I had to control my carjacking urges.. there are some long straight aways and huge washes over yonder.. that car looked great with a cloud of dust behind it.. lots of luck to all! We will be watching the live feed from home and work

I saw and put my hands on Juan's buggy today at contingency and he has SO many awesome "racers tricks" on it. If that team doesn't make it to the end it's not because they were unprepared or don't know what they are doing...looks great.

Inchworm in person also looks OG. Everyone was scurrying around doing belts and whatnot so I just stayed out of the way and will take a closer look tomorrow or later in the week.
