Scott probably forgot to turn the dumb thing on in all the excitement. It hasn't been on since last Monday. I wish I could call, and holler at the pit guys to turn it on when he comes in, but I don't have anyone's number.


Chuck's moving S L O W... (8mph)

He's not too terribly far from the first BFG pit.

The Trophy trucks, and the Pro Motorcycles are probably halfway by now, a lot of those guys are averaging over 60 mph.

I saw Chuck go down from 8, to 6 and is currently running at 4mph.

Edit:
Just watched Chuck go up to 11 mph, then back down to 9.

Yep, that jeepspeed has put some distance between them. I hope everything is alright, but it seems something isn't running right.

it's going to be a long day for the boys & the chase crews. let's hope scott got around the bottlenecks and silt and is motoring along seeing the sights. his tracker isn't turned on. bummer
chuck must be having issues. he's either not moving or he's creeped along for the last few hours.

not much good live info this year. sux

Argh! Looks like Chuck has issues, He seems to have made it to the highway and pulled over for some repairs.
Any other thoughts?


Rick Johnson is currently running 78 mph and well ahead of our guys.

He's (Chuck) been stopped again from what I can see. I hope it's nothing major.

From dirtnewz...."Accident reported on HWY 5 south of San Felipe between chase truck and quad. 1 fatality and 3 serious injuries. No further details."

Horrible news for those involved.

Does anyone know if this is one of us???

Not one of "us". They are in F/S Bronco, but a very well built truck. They always do very well....bastards.
