It's Baja 1000 time again! (and the debut of 2010 4Runner)

[EDIT!!]As reflected in post #11, I am unable to attend this time around because of the pending baby's due date less than three weeks out. As last year, if anyone would please do us all a favor and if going pull some press coverage or duties and get info and coverage. If you need asistance getting a press pass, you can get help from me or hopefully the staff from this site. *So basically, I wish I could be able to attend again this year, but I like my alternative plans, the wife and princess come first and foremost. :thumbup:

Nov.19-22, 2009...right w/i due date time..me not geta go like me want to. Oh well..

Here's all I got so far:

Joe Bacal (might) be campaigning either the vehicle from the 500, or possibly a different vehicle.(?)

Ivan Stewart might take a passenger seat, or even better, again put the hammer down himself.(?)

No spy pics yet, this year's been so busy for me around here, I have honestly fallen off to the way side.

As soon as I feel some pressure from friends and colleagues I will either leak whatever I can , or who knows, maybe figure out how to pull a spin as a chase tech again.

If you know something, throw it in here. If you got pics, even better! High res as possible. :thumbup:

;) But he's driving a "Foreign Vehicle Now!"

Oddly enough I saw him this past week..he's pretty sure of things and I can;t wait to watch things unfold.

Here's the McNeil Ford (3 wheel motion baby! :laugh: ) and I'm curious about Jesse's setup. That and what Sal's going to do to try to get the racers some protection while keeping them in line w/i speed limit zones.

that 3-wheelin is pretty bad ass... i want to drive a trophy truck, would be so much fun...

:wrenchin: Ohh yeah, this is looking nice! Serious possibilities for some serious fun ya think? :hillbill:

Not sure, I was surprised to have been sent just that in and of itself. I'll try pm'ing him via YouTube later on.

Heck, if I trusted my motor mounts more I might just try to send him a reply of my doing something similar in the 4Runner. :angel:

Ha, knew I'd seen the TC Taco before, it's the T-Ten Project, running the 4 liter. :D

Dang, I wish the T-Pat Program at UTI would do something like that!!!

Interesting. I just looked at this years map, they are really staying in the northern reaches of Baja, barely passing San Felipe!? I remember when they'd go into BCS.

The pacific leg, south of Santo Tomas... Been on that road 100s of times. Surprised they would run there. There are quite a few small towns/villages on that road that could be wiped out with one wrong turn!
