Team Suave

Offroad VW based vehicles have problems/insights all their own. Not to mention the knowledge gained in VW durability.

This is great news. NORRA sounds like the place to be this year!

Any crew openings? I would pay my own way.

I guess the cat is out of the bag! I was going to make a post today about our latest entry, but GDRBO beat me to it!

We did the 2014 race for Gary's 50th Birthday, and we are doing this one for my 30th! Can't wait!

Just saw this, I'd be interested as well. In addition to normal chasing and support, I could handle video management, radio stuff (including spare 5 and 50W units), possibly live streaming based upon how much you guys want to do. I have good, cheap internet access throughout Baja wherever there's cell reception. Obviously I'd pay my own way.

I'll talk to Tim over this coming week and then we can all get together after.

Good question!

No, we didn't end up racing NORRA, and unfortunately we had already paid our full entry fee :roll: . They ended up keeping out money, and said we can use the entry next year. Right now, that may be our next race...

We might try to do one of the AZOP races later this year. Unless someone wants to put down some sponsorship money :mrgreen:

Ouch! Didn't know you had already paid.

I found my Suave Racing t-shirt a few days ago and added it to my to be worn stack.

Well, long story short, read the fine print when you give your credit card to pay a deposit :roll: We didn't realize that paying the deposit meant automatically paying the balance on January 1...

But now we have some incentive to get the car up and and race ready for sure next year! :lol:
