Great Story to Read!
June 11, 2006

I just got an email from Jessica Mccreary from McCreary Racing. She has a inspirational story about her preparing, training and competing in the Baja 1000. I encourage you to read her story and become a "10 Buck Sponser". We did! You can find her story at www.mccrearyracing.com

Race Bike Update

June 7, 2006

Gary has been working hard on getting our race bike ready the past few months. He is upgrading a 2001 Honda XR650R to be ready for the rugged terrain of the Baja 1000. He is also getting ready a pre-run bike so we can run the course before the race to get in some practice. Here is a short list of all the upgrades he has been doing and will be doing to the bike to get it race ready.

  • GPR Pro V2 triple tree/streering damper
  • TrailTech Lynks Enduro Speedometer
  • Baja Designs Dual 8" HID headlights
  • Highoutput stator and rectifier
  • Michelin Desert Tires
  • Baja Designs style skid plate
  • High speed heavy duty cam chain, gears, sliders, and tensioner
  • Heavy duty clutch springs
  • 11:1 Forged Piston w/ antifriction coating
  • HCR cam
  • Front forks springs and revalved
  • Rear shock heavy duty spring and revalved
  • DID X-ring ERV3 High Tensile strength chain
  • IMS Pro Pegs

We all want to give thanks to Gary and his dedication without him and his mechanical skills we would not be doing this race. Here are a few pictures of the bikes being built right now.
