Zorros Racing taking on the Tecate Score Baja 500, 2014

[El Mamito USMC]

So

What if we only added one more rider (total of 4)?? That would give us all more race miles. Just a thought...

 

I don't mind but then the cost will go up.. and ill probably would be 1500 per rider to cover all 6K we need. It needs to be discussed and voted by all riders..

I like it the cost would go up a little as well but I'm ok with that. I am going to be bringing a 8x21 foot enclosed trailer with a ramp door so we can keep all our stuff locked up in that if its cool with you guys.

that's great man, because mine is 16X8 but open.

 

And that way we can leave the stuff in the trailer inside the hotel and just load the bikes that are prerunning on the chase trucks.. if we get early in the morning everyday we can work it ...ill post the brake down now

 

Sunday

Monday

Tuesday

Wends

 

So if we only do one rider a day, we can concentrate better on the course and dedicate more time to each rider and their section..

I am cool with you bringing your enclosed trailer. Anything to keep our stuff safe. Even with 4 riders I think we can keep the cost around $1200 per person. Of course, it's always safe to think higher than lower. Mamito, you definitely know better than us.

Just my thoughts...what do you guys think?

Entry $1700

Pits $600

Trans $100

Hotel $800-900

Food $800

Gas $300

Miscellaneous $500

------------------------

= $4900/4 riders = $1250

------------------------

= $4900/4 riders = $1250

the entry its about correct,

the pits its 500,

the TRANS went up to 300 since they are using a new better company(ill check the price during this 1000),

hotel 8 nigths so close to 900(to play safe)

food=????

gas= 500 since were running the trucks and the bikes..

micellaneous= 500, maybe a lil less.

 

so i prefer to put 1500 per rider and at the end any left overs we split it in 4...

 

 

opinions on this??

 

 

and if we do only 4 riders , its very duable and a lot easier for prerunning purposes...

[mawest]

I think that looks good. Doing this with 4 riders seems to be the better route. Plus, I think I am just ready for June to be here!! I have not done a race since June and it's killing me.

so 1.5k its fair to be on the safe side? and if your friend comes in he'll just have to go with the flow..

 

 

ooh your not the only one... i havent ride since march. fix the bike for the Rosarito 200 in july and prerunning was great.. and dnf thanks the a faulty lever... and still broke..

It will be an epic adventure you'll be able to tell people about for the rest of our lives.and I think we will have friendships that will last a lifetime and it will all be thanks to baja. Hell I haven't even met you guys in person and I already like all of you. It's the things in common that bring an Internet team together. And an awesome sense of adventure. You only live once. I want to go out with my boots ON

You are correct on the friendship and the great adventure part. I still keep in touch with all the Baja guys from 2011 and they are ripping it on the midwest area.. I wish one of the guys, Jake Yates, would join us. He's a great kid and because of him I was able to join and help the team..

 

And if we do good, we could do the Baja 1000 in 2015 since ill be a loop course, and we could do the 1000 one year yes, and one. No. Pretty much every loop course...

 

And here's you new background pic for fb..

[El Mamito USMC]

Going to the moto track tomorrow rippin motos.

otos have been ripped my arms are shot. Went for a ride on their scramble track 8 miles or gnarly woods , the new shocks are amazing. They are not so amazing on the moto track. I had to slow down or bury the bike in the ground, suspension is a little soft for the track. Fun fun fun

[Vasilios]

You mean the new Axxis Shocks?

Yeah the axis shocks. They just weren't set up for dropping bombs on the track. Unreal in the woods though.

Judging from most of the posts you put up about your Mechanic and the questions that you are asking because he cant answer.... You're better off with out him.

[El Mamito USMC]

Hes mostly a yzf guy. But I guess time will tell. Cant wait to go riding on my quad again.

 

He Baily why dont u join us for the Baja 500?

[stinky93071]

After talking with the family, well looks like I am in..

background: started racing XC 3 yrs ago. first in over 30c group the last two yrs over 4b. I am not a "b" rider but they do not have a over 40c group. I am on a 05 450r, with stock motor, pipe, air box top off, +4 front and back, with elkas 3 stage shocks. I am no where "fast" for my group, but i always finish. after 6 races this yr i am sitting on 4th spot. my bike hampers me more then anything i think due to the +4 at some points in the track I am rubbing tires to trees get through so it takes me a little longer.

 

I think I have our last guy. He is the points leader for my group, and a crazy fast sob. I judge my race by how many times he laps me. If he only passes me once, i am doing good!! I think he is out of town racing this weekend, but did tell me that he wanted in.

[El Mamito USMC]

I know that we have talked about which stage of the race we will all be racing. Mamito, since you know the area better than all of us I think it's only far that you arrange our race order. All of us should end up with around 125ish miles. I'll post a link to the type of terrain that I am used to racing. If everyone else does the same maybe that would help you out.

Welcome to the team Chris!! Hope to hear from and get to know you. This is once in a life time and June can't get here soon enough.

 

Here is the link that shows the terrain:

 

This of course is not me. I tried to get this guy to join our team. He has one race left in this season and when it's over he will be crowned the 2013 NHHA champion. If you want FLEXX handle bars for your quad he is the guy to talk to.
