oops, forgot the important shit


Everything is designed, built, raced and broken by us and only us. Except the motor, tranny and steering rack, its all hands on.

the baja goes 40 mph offroad, through mud, ponds, jumps, forest and desert. They throw everything at us. We have 100 mile endurance races, drag races, log pulls, uphill and rock climbing with manuverability.

the formula is 140 mph capable, but we gear it down to around 90 for our tracks we race on.


we also have to do design reports, cost reports, business meeting type reports at every race. so its not all racing.
