  • Bound for Ensenada

    Roxanne here again. I set the alarm, ready to take over for Shawn, who’s gone to bed long ago, since 1102 is officially “done” as they say on Weatherman channel. I let the news sink in, cried some and then texted Jim, who surprised me by texting back. I thought they’d be snoring, but they’re headed to basecamp in Ensenada where they’ll catch some zzzzzzz’s and meet up with the RV.

    Let’s take a quick look at irtrax.net to see how the other Class 11 cars are faring.

    1100 is at RM450, wowow
    1102 @ RM430
    1149 just passed Checkpoint 2 and RM350
    1103 is totally off course @ zero mph. They were standing still when I went to bed, so I’m thinking they’re done too. Sorry about that.

    Will let y’all know when the team safely arrives in Ensenada.

  • Changing of the Guard

    I chatted with crew; transmission is traveling to Baja Pit 4 where they’ll do best to change it out.

    Meanwhile, i’m going to take a catnap. For the next few hours, Shawn will be your tour guide.

  • Not out of the race yet!

    1102 being towed to Baja Pit 4, updates as they occur.

  • Good news, bad news

    Everybody is ok.
    Transmission may be shot.
    They made it further than last year.

  • Twitter is flaky

    Chase truck with 1102.
    Weatherman broadcasting 8 more vehicles out. 1102 not called. Still zero mph.
