Desert Dingo Racing

Exposed – the truth about off road racing (there’s a lot of standing around not doing a whole lot)

Roxanne put together this video of us at the KC Hilites Midnight Special outside Ridgecrest, Calif. this past weekend. A seven hour drive to get there. A day of standing around watching the team prep the car. A night in a hotel. More daytime standing around and then nine hours of sucking dust while flagging a road crossing before packing up at 3 a.m. and driving seven hours home.

Honestly, life doesn’t get any better.

Consensus, without tearing the car apart, is that we fried the ignition system, which is a lot cheaper to fix than a blown No. 3 cylinder.

Next up, the South Point 250 in Vegas in October. But first pretty much everyone takes a break for Burning Man.
