    you have your lingo mixed up. metrosexuals are straight dudes who spend alot of time primping and pruning and dress like their gay. you've seen me, do i look metrosexual in my carharts, camo hat and nasty beard?

    no, you can, cause you are just a member. but i hold the mods to a higher standard (although i'm not sure why since bob always seems to promote from teh bottom of the barrel....)

    no no no, she's from NJ. she's not golden, she's orange.

    6 passes per race vehicle and there's no chase or pre-running at Primm. Takes a lot of the fun out of it but keeps things manageable for a clown like me with a truck that just wants to try racing.

    The main pit is right next to the stadium. They route the race through the stadium so the spectators have something to see from the bleachers. Even better is watching along the fence behind Buffalo Bill's. We were watching the Trophy Trucks and Class 1 buggies go through there after I was done racing. Derek managed to snap a picture from that area and got it published!

    nice, have you ever done it before? its the perfect one to do on a dirtbike, it not as rough as the 250 and obviously not nearly as demanding as the 1000. the 08 250 was the toughest race i have ever been in. i grew up in motocross and that was my first desert race, had a new found respect for offroad guys after that. but i also fell in live with it and havent raced motocross since then and have had the op to do 5 baja's
