I’ve been to Baja, have been a Paris Dakar fan for decades, think WRC drivers are awesome, Lucas Oil Off Road Racing rules, and know that most all of the drivers at any of these, or countless other crazy off-road races, have balls the size of church bells. They clank when the walk. Seriously. I want mine to clank too. I want to race at Baja, Paris Dakar, Lucas Oil Off Road, some WRC course, the Breslau, and wherever I can go fast through crap no sane people would drive through. Sign me up. But what if someone said you could only race in one? But it could be any one you wanted? Any off-road race in the world, all expenses paid, competitive vehicle, and unlimited budget. Which one do you choose? I’d run…no….well….damn it! I can’t decide.
So, if you had unlimited funds, and the skills and clanking balls to pull it off, what off-road race would you most want to compete in?
King of the Hammers.
Hands down. Rocks, fire roads, balls out desert running.
I would do the Lucas Oil Off Road series,tear off body panels while racing.
dont care, roll the dice and whatever will be will be. As long as it allows me to go balls out in a trophy tuck…sweet mother of baby jesus…I could die a happy man.
Do I get a time machine?

The biggest off road race in Aus. today
I think the baja 1000 is kind of overrated. Vegas to Reno is where it’s at!
