Yea I watch both of them. The live feed is so good I will be watching in my leather chair all week. Did the guy on the motorcycle have 2 wheel drive. And where did the cowboy striped come from?
And the waterfall was kicking a lot of ass today.

Yea, it was one of those 2wd bikes, a Christini I think. Not sure what the cobwoy thing was about either.... lol

They have wifi you can buy. AT&T generally doesn't work that well out there.

Bummed I couldn't make it out there, but my 46" tv is a great second choice. Worked last night, got home right before race start and am still awake watching right now. Luckily, I don't have a busy night tonight at work.

Anybody that did not watched the backdoor shoot out missed a super show, cold as heck, but it was beyond awesome

By the way, another team loaned Kevin Sacalas a car to race today. They cut up the Big Ugly panels to fit the loaner car. Not sure how they are doing. I left after Tony Pellegrino finished third. There was a lot of carnage today. Will be interesting to see how many actually finish by 10 tonight.

It was an awesome time watching the race online! I didn't get ANYTHING done at work today on account of the live feed. haha!

Man, now I'm pumped up to take my TJ to the hammers. Anyone willing to drag my jeep through a few trails in JV!?

Wanna drag it up Sledge sometime? It will be a battle and you will be hooked

Here is a video of my friend Avery Genosi (nick name Cracker) at the Backdoor Challenge:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPTvZ...ature=youtu.be

His buggy has a 4.3 Chevy and runs on IROK 42 stickies. He ran the tires at 3 psi. Call it the Marshmallo Slingshot. He was the only one to run the high left line for the second climb. He has run Backdoor 100s of times.

Forgot to mention that he got 8th.
