I am trying to make it our for Media. I submitted my application but I have not heard back from anyone.

 

[acme]

3 entered and 1 more supposedly showing. Great opportunity to race in Barstow on a course...

 

[staggs]

All done with tech , going to be a hot one and a rough one lol I Preran this morning

 

[acme]

Congrats Mr Staggs on the win! Gema said you were hauling tail and the car looked great when we saw you. Hopefully one day I'll get to race ours and we can play. Thanks for the clutch tool, get it back to you this week.

Thanks to the guys at Suspended Fab for a great car! Sparks Racing for your help, clutching was awesome 170/180 avg belt temp in 100 degrees, roughest crap you'll ever see racing. Kurt at DC, VLSLLP.com, PCI for great support trackside and thanks to all our pit homies!

PS you guys should give MORE a shot. Wife said this course was rough and technical and way fun until we went out... "San Felipe/Mike's Sky Rancho/Urapahn/Parker 425 kinda rough and technical and we'll marked" is what her and her codog Nate both said. Not the same old Barstow...

Thank you, it was a good time. A rough and challenging course, sorry about your luck and I hope you get that thing dialed soon. Hopefully rusty write up about the race on here will get some more people to come out to these races. Next time I'm going for that 9 car purse, I am just happy that we finally seem to have this car where is needs to be. If you can race and finish in Barstow , you can race anywhere right haha

 

[cocojoe]

Congrats to Staggs and his Yamaha, cars is getting dialed. more cars should definitely come out and have fun on a real desert race course

 

[cocojoe]

ACME, sorry about your engine problems, you know I always got your back. You and Gema always put in a solid effort when it comes to racing, according to Dean, Gema was moving, of course until she was not.

 

[acme]

Thanks Coco. She said the car was perfect and then it wasn't... I was looking forward to getting back in the seat and playing.

A little more tweaking and that Yammie is going to be a true contender. Jeremiah can drive and he showed awesome patience and restraint by not overdriving it out there. As both he and Gema said: "It wasn't a Blade In The Desert course"...

Hopefully a few others join the fray in MORE. Great course and markings and technical/quick per the wife. It was a bummer to have the other two not show but that's racing.

Viva Suspended Fab!

 

[Rusty5150]

The course was crazy. I ran it Saturday around 3:30ish and I was blown away. This was a true desert course. MORE does a great job and I would love to see the UTV guys support it. The staff was great.

 

[Bajaxp]

I was out there pitting for my buddy racing Class 10. Great event and great course. I think once MORE consistently gets 6-8 entries per race, it will take off and could soon have 20 entries.

 

[XPirate]

I'm looking at getting back into desert racing. The MORE series looks to be convenient, fun, and slightly more affordable than the big 2...I really like powder puff event as so does the wife With that being said, I can't pull the trigger on a car, turbo, non turbo, Polaris, maybe Yamaha??? Seems like some dealers act like they have good deals, and then the "fees" come into play and I'm so pissed I leave the dealership...I was actually picking up a new trailer and Turbo RZR until the trailer didn't measure up. Boy am I glad I took the tape measure out... I was so bummed, I didn't even stop by the RZR, called them and said it's on the back burner for now...Trying to be patient is hard, family priorities are hard to justify the $$$ too, but I'm still trying to work it out.

 

[suspended fabrication]

Suspended Fabrication couldn't be more happy with how the race turned out. Staggs did and awesome job behind the wheel of his SF built YXZ1000. we went out there with one purpose and that was to test the car and make it to the finish, we did just that. I was lucky enough to be able to get back in the passenger seat with Staggs, that course was awesome it was exactly what we needed to test the car and put a beating on it. we ran a flawless race no flats no issues at all only had to take fuel and the team of Staggs Racing killed it on the pit stop. I would have to say I believe the car is exactly where we want it to be.

when can we start seeing some more people come out and race this series? Cody Jeffers and that rest of the M.O.R.E crew do an amazing job putting on these races I have been racing with them in multiple different classes over the years and they are yet to disappoint with the course lay out.

Also want to say thank you to ACME Racing for allowing us at Suspended Fabrication to be apart of your racing program we will get the bugs worked out of that car and go have some fun in the near future. I have two words Sparks Racing!!!!

 

[cocojoe]

Fun racing, super rough course, what more could you ask for!!!!

 

[acme]

Been running MORE since the second race Jim put on way back when and it's come a long way. Having raced BITD, SCORE and Record the last few years I was hesitant to come back to Barstow as we'd been around the place so many times over the years racing it was like watching a toilet flush. Gema said Cody (MORE) laid out a course with stuff she'd never seen and it was perfect for the UTV and the markings were awesome. We wouldn't hesitate to come back as long as the car count is there.

A lot of people get caught up on racing a series and we were the same. Lots of good races out there that are fun if you look beyond racing for points or are hung up on following Polaris... Our favs, bucket list and great races to consider are: RECORD Ensenada to San Felipe, CODE Mexicali to San Felipe, MORE split loop December race, SNORE Caliente, anything in Parker, and of course the Baja 500, SF 250, B1k or anything in Baja for that matter and our bucket list event, the Norra 1000. Two others that would be killer UTV events similar to the UTVWC would be BAP and Rage at the River.
