Josh is the best there is, plain and simple!
He has won the last three in a row for a reason, he is one of the best drivers out there and knows the limitations of his truck
He is also a supernice guy and will offer advice even to his competitors!
I look forward to meeting him at the drivers meeting

The famous "sign mangler" during his aussie rent a car days
He lost a front control arm bolt, and they couldnt find another the right size, chassis end, might be worth logging that in the memory bank
Wrong Nick Le. He was living in California at the time, the truck was his and some folks I worked with ran the race with him and shot a documentary before during and after the race. What failed on his truck was the custom shock mounts. I forget how far they made it, but the H1s had many mechanical issues and they would swap out parts constantly from the numerous support vehicles.
One day I'll get a hold of the footage.
When did you get your TT? Ill have to keep my eyes peeled for it.
Sorry to see this colossal waste of money. Sumotoy, has already decreed that an 80 series probably won't finish a Baja 1000. BTDT.

No brainer on picking the 80 Series. Can't wait, I wish I could go.
Today! It was just a teaser though. Next time they'll have more pics testing the rig.
Racing against Hummers in an 80 eh, well then
congrats on your class win.

XBox has an offroad game that includes the 80 series Land Cruiser (older Xbox). I was playing at a friends house and they have it rated as not handling well, poor acceleration, and low top speed. I haven't been able to win a single race. Here's to hoping the game creators didn't know what they were doing and you are a better racer than I am!
The nice thing is that when you roll it on an Xbox it just gets up and keeps going!
Congrats!
