High Tech Rednecks

Postby OldGreen » Fri Feb 12, 2010 4:05 pm

The RumbleGoat Racing Branch of the Peak Putters is going racing again.

Follow all the action on www.twitter/rumblegoat. We will be tweeting the race LIVE.

This time it is all Putters, all the Time.

Jose is driving with Tim in the right seat on 2/20 and I am driving with Jafo co-dogging on 2/21.

The race is the SNORE BATTLE at PRIMM down Vegas way. It is basically a desert short course (4 12 mile laps each day). There are 10 trucks in our class. I am really looking forward to getting back to my roots as far as driving style AND giving a couple of our MOST dedicated volunteers the chance to be in the race truck during a race.

Look us up, support us, cheer for us. . .

I was gonna ask about this a couple weeks ago but never got around to it, but are there any baja styled races close by? We keep looking at Jeepspeed stuff and Class 5 buggies but dont want to really build one if we have to drive 17 hours to race for a weekend.

There are two races per year in Goldendale and this year there is a 400 mile race in Southern Oregon.

The drive is worth it. Totally worth it. In fact, the drive is always one of the best parts of the trip.
