[TXNRZRS]

Two more races out at Texana Ranch! Registration is up...rules will be up shortly but, they will be the same as most other organizations. Stock UTV, Pro UTV and Formula Desert Lights.

Baja Racing of Texas - the Texas Premiere Off-Road Racing Experience!

Is this the same as EDR series?

 

[JoeyD23]

No this is different......

 

[The Governor]

Do they have Safety spec. and UTV rules made up yet?

 

[JoeyD23]

I think they go by BITD rules but I would have to look again? They have 2 classes a UTV Pro and a UTV Stock

Check out either EDR or BTR website for the rules, oddly enough the BTR rules look just like the EDR rules

Standardization is a WONDERFUL thing

Actually...I'll be working at this race so not in any vehicle for this one. I have someone else that can co-dawg for you if needed...let me know.

As far as the UTV race goes...starts at 7am and will run for 2 hours...most laps/best time wins. I think they are finalizing the course soon but, I heard it's a 3.5 mile loop.

Also, talking with Tech guys and we may actually simplify the Stock rules. May only require window nets and 4-point belts to allow more people to race without having to spend too much extra to 'race-prep' their UTVs. I'll know more by the end of the week.

Great, now I can get my a$$ hannded to me by a stock 900XP I have to get me one of those! If it's a short track I will probly pull the second seat and set up for short track.

 

[TXNRZRS]

All right...time for an update.

The course will be a 3.5 mile course with a wide varity of terrain and conditions. The race will start on Saturday morning at 7am and will run for 2 hours. Most laps/best time will win. We will be starting everyone two at a time with 30 second staggers.

I have confirmed that due to the short course, we will be slacking off on the rules for the stock guys.

Required:
Firesuit (prefer one-piece but will allow two-piece)
at least 4-point harness
window nets or approved arm restraints
solid roof
rear amber light

Allowed:
stock fuel tank/system
stock seats
stock rollcage
stock net type doors (would prefer solid doors though)
motorcyle type helmet with goggles

We hope this will allow more participation for those people just starting to see what racing is all about.

Online registration is now available via the website:

Baja Racing of Texas - the Texas Premiere Off-Road Racing Experience!

FYI...the 40 entry restriction is for the Cars/Trucks. There is plenty of room for all of the UTVs so, get your entries submitted soon.

We look forward to seeing you out there

The "Gang" will be there representing the UTVUG.

 

[TXNRZRS]

Where is everybody??? At this point, we only have one UTV and a couple of Formula Desert Lites. Hard to get promoters to add a UTV class when nobody will show up

 

[bajaleo]

They are frighten by the "Black Rhino"

 

[TXNRZRS]

That's why we also offer a "Stock" class

 

[bajaleo]

They really shouldn't be!
