    It's chaos right now. These guys looking for Oscar and/or Jaime have been walking on people ALL day. They keep speaking Spanish and ignore Weathermex and keep transmitting.


    Not you? There's been an HBJeff in the Weatherman chat all day.

    It's... got a pro grill... He's Toyota's only one running with the big boys. It's really a Toyota only because it has Toyota badge and grill on it.

    Sounds like he's broke though. Nothing new, BJ has been falling on his face a lot lately.

    Andy McMillin's truck flipped with Bryce driving it. It's flipped back over, but the theory is that the antennae are destroyed.

    Andy and Bryce are DNF. Sounds like they couldn't get it going after it was flipped back over.

    Man, being on the East Coast sucks with these events. So, I guess TT31 Andy McMillin/Bryce Menzies got going again last night and FINISHED. Last I heard, Bryce flipped it over by Mike's. Flipping anything anywhere near Mike's makes for a tough job flipping it back over.

    Brandon Walsh is racing number 700F for Toyota. It's an open production (class 7f) Tacoma. The finish line closes at like 11pm I believe. Around that time. Not looking too good for him right now.

    Got home about an hour ago. I've had about 2 hours sleep since 7am yesterday. This course was crazy brutal because of the rain.Race go pushed back an entire day because of it.

    This was the wash where the bikes/cars are supposed to hit the dirt first. Where that black F150 is is where the course leaves the pavement and goes into the wash. A boat would have been better.

    I did get to meet Jenson Button, so that was pretty ef'ing cool.

    One of the many reasons for the 24 hour delay. With the bikes starting at 3am this could have been extremely dangerous.

    Unfortunately both our cars DNF'ed. I was pitting at RM 372 and we saw less than half the field come by when we got that at 5pm yesterday and left there after recovering our car at 5am this morning.

    Where the P-D has averted danger, SCORE continues to maintain adventure. Thanks for the update Mike-you met a LEGEND in racing!?

    Never know who's gonna show up.....that's why I go...

    Good to see you got back. Hope you didn't get turned around at the border for a muddy rig. There's been a lot of people getting turned back it seems.

    Sounds like Vince Munoz's truck is still in down a ravine. They rolled last night. Looking like heavy equipment is needed to recover the vehicle.

    If there's anyone still down there willing to help with a heavy winch, they are at RM 290.

    I left the San Felipe side this morning. I had all my gear so there was no need to go back to Ensenada. Most of the crew did and by the time they got back to the hotel they had already gotten word to wash off the cars. I just had my truck and 2 friends. Went through Mexicali east and it took about 30 min.

    Mexicali is the best crossing. TJ is stupid.

    I only cross TJ when we're going into Baja. Coming back it's Tecate or Mexicali.

    Leaving US is fine through TJ. Coming back in is the issue. You gonna jump on Weatherman Relay chat or you tired of that mess already?

    He breaks all the time, but he puts on a show before he's broken.
