UPDATE : After a well-deserved break were back. We will be racing in the Pro Am Desert challenge December 7/8 in Barstow Ca. The 45 is next to the shop getting prepped with a few new Surprises. I want to Thank Bradley wheels and 4X4 Engineering for offering to sponsor our wheels and tires ( TOYO Tires ) for our 2025 season and AMSOIL will be our new motor and drivetrain Sponsor. Barstow will be our shakedown race before 2025 King of the Hammers. Terrain Tamer has also stepped to help us. We wouldn't be here without Valley Hybrids, Cruiser Outfitters, Kortias tire, Summit Steel, Bowfin Cruisers, REDLINE Land Cruisers and the support of this community and the Rusty Nail racing family

Race prep is going well. Made a trip to PRP to get some new window nets made. Its crazy its been two years and our window nets and seat harness have expired ( there only good for 2 years ) Chris stopped by and we have the seats in and out in no time. I wasn't happy with the overflow bottle bouncing around so I added a bracket to keep it secure. Everything has been re torqued and painted with torque paint, fluids checked and ended up having the lower alternator rebuilt. We received notice that our new TOYO tires have been ordered and should be here before our Barstow race Dec 7/8. Have a Great weekend
One way to sell parts is make them expire “after 2 years”. Seatbelt guy is on the safety board it seems.

I will have some exciting news later today. This weekend is our Barstow ProAm Desert Championship. I have been prepping the truck all week and added a few things I was concerned about. Adding a support bracket to the fuel lines from the cell to the fuel pumps to eliminate extreme vibration. We expect some great weather this weekend. With Garrett and Georg Esterer @orangefj45 stepping up as my co drivers this year.

They are Amazing. A bit wider than our Mickey Thompson tires. We're taking some taller rear bump stops if we need to make adjustments
