    That is funny. Not doing that again. That got really close to costing me some money.

    From what I know the baja track will be open, not sure about what else. Also Baja Racing of Texas will have 5 rigs out there so it should be pretty cool and there is plenty of room in the lodge which cost's $25 per person per night. Should be an awesome time. Here is a link to the lodge: http://thetexanaranch.com/Texana/Lodging.html

    As of right now I guess I'm the only one taking a vehicle and Sam and Tommy are Riding?

    I'm going to my beach house instead. If I could come next month I probably would.

    Tommy and I went out to the Texana Ranch to work out the recovery details with Chris and Greg from Baja Racing Texas (http://www.bajaracingtexas.com/) and what an awesome trip this turned out to be. The Texana ranch and BRT are definitely bringing off-roading, not just racing, to a new level in Texas. Gramps and Carl, the ranch owners, have made a paradise for all types of off-roading out there, Matt, the ranch foreman, does a great job at keeping the hunting side of the ranch and off-roading side operating smoothly and the guys with BRT definitively know how to promote racing. I'll be starting a new thread with new recovery and race info soon.

    We had a sweet stay in the 15 person hunting lodge which was lacking nothing as far as comforts go. The Ross Creek Trail riders have a killer headquarters set-up with about 60 RV hook-ups and a awesome dining area which included an in-ground swimming pool. Here is an early morning shot from the lodge:



    We started off Saturday with a tour of the ranch that quickly turned into us chasing the pro-truck in the 4 seater razer. I was thoroughly impressed with how fast a razer with 4 people and Carl's driving the blue truck was.
    Big jump:


    Through the gate:


    In the Razer


    We spent the rest of the trip either riding around in the Dodge or some type of UTV and finished off every night with great food, cool people and plenty of cold beer.

    This is coming up and I need confirmations ASAP. I've got a nearby room that has 2 or 3 beds and floor space if need be, the beds are taken but will be open for people wanting to shower or sleep on the floor. Also Sunday wheeling will be allowed.

    Things you'll get
    - Recovery T-shirt with reflective ink
    - Hand held radio to communicate
    - GPS file of race track and ranch
    - A Trail Guide

    Requirements for recovery vehicles and participants
    - Front and rear tow points
    - Additional lighting (not just head lights)
    - Sober (during the race)
    - Must have attended at least 1 TAMOR off-road trip or made other arrangements with me to demonstrate common Safety knowledge

    Recovery Teams

    Travis with the Dodge, probably towing Tommy
    -one open seat
    -Hopefully leaving Thursday

    Matt ?
    Sam ?
    Adam ?

    I might have a school conflict with this event so i might have to leave a day early.
