We drove all 3 car's in that picture all the from San Diego to Cabo and then back. That shot is in Los Barillos, the fishing resort.  We did sort of build them to do some pre running. The other baja has a 2.0 16v engine in it, radiator in front, coolant lines in the tunnel.  Both cars worked realy good in the dirt , the 2nd day down, we went about 150 miles in the dirt, from a crawl to 3rd gear taped out. THE most fun i have had in years.

Right on, RACEHEAD. Two bad-assed Baja Bugs. Well set up, too. Baja Mexico used to be so much fun. I miss camping, surfing, skating, and fishing down there. I got getta get back down... if I ever get my finances back in order. Thanks for the inspiration.

We worked on the red Baja last night at the shop - got some new Fox 2.5's for the rear's - getting ready for the next desert race here in 2 weeks - the last pictures were shot just after the last desert race - did 2 laps on the race course - 100 miles - car worked bad ass - getting to use it for what is was built for has been a lot of fun - as we all know we spend a lot of time on our cars and it's nice to be able to put them to work - and get us back home .
