Personally, I think the whale tale is an especially nice touch. Nothing more clearly indicates off-road prowess than a whale tale.

This is proof that having 60% of your weight on the rear end can be very beneficial!

there is also a real live honest to gawd off road racey 911SC(i think sc) that is lime green that ran the NORRA 1000. do not know if he finished or DNF'd. looked to be very well sorted out. w/tail.


for those of you that dont know what the NORRA 1000 iz, its the venue for retired OLD SKOOL OFF ROAD RACEY CARS TRUCKS BUGGIES!


NORRA was the 1st venue wayy before SCORE to hold the 1st BAJA 1000 offroad races back in the 60's all the way down the peninsula.


james garner steve mcqueen and others, a real cast of characters.


the reason for NORRA is because techno advances in HP/SUSPENSION have leap frogged light years ahead of these OLD SKOOLERS.


the ruts created by present day TROPHY TRUCKS and CLASS 1 UNLIMITED cars with insane suspension travel and insane HP, create whoop de doos that old skool vehicles cannot handle but at a snails pace.


hence.............the NORRA 1000. just picture james garners oldsmobile ,walker evans dodge truck, mickey thompsons buggies etc. malcom smith on his HUSKY 500XC etc etc.


its run what cha brung kind of racing. if ya show up with a full race wing'd gawd dam'it..............they WILL HAVE A CLASS FOR YOU! ANYTHING! ANY MAKE MODEL as long as it passes safety tech.(read the tech it IS INVOLVED)


3 days of hammering the hell out of yerself and yer codawg and yer vehicle ALL THE WAY TO LA PAZ THE HARD WAY!



and WEZ GOING with my 1976 SCORE LEGAL CLASS 8 CHEBBIE C-10 2wd GEISER BUILT TRUCK..............this is NUMERO UNO #1 , NUMBA 1 ON MY BUCKET LIST! hopefully we will be ready by april 2013...............if all systems including my wallet are NOT A GO WITH THROTTLE UP, than we will defer until 2014.


stay tuned.


SPONSORS ACT NOW! contact me if interested. we will PLASTER THE VEHICLE/HELMETS/RACE SUITS/UNDIES with YOUR CORP. LOGO!

CO-DAWGS INTERESTED THAT CAN READ A FREEKING GPS @ a "HUNDERT+" MPH with very good wrenching skills-WANTED.................APPLY NOW! MUST SPEAK FLUENT SPANISH! YES you will be able to drive when i am too beat to hell to hold onto the steering wheel. its 1000+ miles there will be plenty of action trust me.

P.S. NO wammbee pambee mommas boys, if ya dont like tacos, or dirt packed up yer azz, YOU NEED NOT APPLY!

i already have a gauntlet.................MONEY!

today i was (GET THIS POO) invited to go pre-run and pit for an individual i know for their trophy truck entry in this years SCORE BAJA 1000 in november POINT TO POINT! all the way DOWN THE PENINSULA!

and we will be flying down in a jet. yeah a freeking JET! i'll say that again............A FREEKING JET! LIKE CORPORATE JET!

i am not making this poo up. i guess it pays off doing this off road crap for 35+ years(too many races to remember, honestly a blur) , pitting team honda twice under bruce olgivie with campbell/hengveld at the helm, and working at an airport and knowing something about planes(not much-joea is the pilot, but i can kick some mean tires tho and wave my arms around and carry a clipboard). thinking about this real hard and gonna talk it over with geiser bros. as its a geiser built trophy truck.


so heres a pic of the old skool racey truck..........because i'm OLD! 2013 if all goes well or 2014 NORRA 1000 here we come...........cue in solemn prayer muzak here.


p.s. a lil build info: all toob(tube) werk(engine cage/cab cage/bed cage) done by geiserbros.com since its birth 12 years ago. 383 stroker, alum radiator w/ dual electric fans, hughs performance 400 w/deep pan and tranny cooler, b&m shifter, 2 -bilsteins with nitrogen bottles per wheel, dunbar spring mega springs in rear, new detroit trutrac diffy,with new 3.73 gears yukon ring and pinon,with yukon mega zoomy axles bearings seals blah blah, brand new 44 gallon fuel safe alum fuel cell, hella lights, hella horns, RJS 5-points, fire system(big ass bottle) beards racing seats, parker pumper, lowrance GPS, hellas, 4 wheel disc brakes, has been built to the letter of SCORE RULE BOOK. its a CLASS 8 STOCK. and yes it still has A/C...........because i live on the surface of the sun here.

to do still: tear apart entire front end, rebuild according to mickey thompsons(remember him?) specs and a brand new ZZ383 CHEVY CRATE MOTOR (425HP out of the box)with MSD FUEL INJECTION. will also have dual MSD black boxes, with dual ignitions and switch in cab, custom "D" ported doug thorley headers, install radio/intercom. right now we are complete with everything at the rear end, the cab and only the front end and engine remain and some cosmetic crap. and wez ready!

stay tuned. i'll get some more pics after it comes out of geiser brothers next week.


laugh all ya want. it was scarey fast with the holley 800 double pumper, and we got crap mileage, so we de-tuned to a edelbrock 600. it will still scare the living poo out of ya and make ya pee yer pants as i melt the bfg's in ALL 3 GEARS on the pavement. in the dirt.............get in, hold on, and STFU!
