Neither Seth nor Scott look like they spent a freezing night in the Mexico desert.
This should be the last set of photos, taken by Kristy, Jeff and Scott from this years race. Check ’em out.

I think this was about an hour before we headed for the start line. (I’m joking.)
Travis was a picture-taking machine. He even captured the only evidence of vandalism on the car. Here’s a gallery of his photos.

Richard chats with Gustavo Garayzar of 1149.
The extraction team and Scott and Seth just arrived here at Jeff and Robin’s place after spending a good chunk of the morning in a technical section in a ravine where our second (and last) tranny blew. The plan is to spend a couple of hours here, then pack up and head back to Estero Beach.
Here are my photos of our Friday morning prep and some work on the car when the first tranny blew.
Crusty and Richard under the car, finishing engine installation.
A full day of running around for parts, working on the car and getting our secret weapon configured. We’re close to getting the car buttoned up. Contingency and Tech are tomorrow. Still need to get the IRC unit. Finish configuring the secret weapon, secure fuel, get registered. Typical day.
Almost time to hit the jacuzzi.
Some shots from today’s work (I just heard them fire up the engine.)
