Mark Post... Have not seen him in the TT forever. Same with Pflueger and Gaughan, interesting seeing some names that have not been there in a long time. No Jesse James..... running out of money? As for trading places or buying better starting spots. Most of those people in front of Robby are one of two things, hired drivers that have no say or have more money than Robby and could give a crap about a bribe! Plus Arciero is dring the Herbst mobile so that a big negative on giving up the spot.

Looking at the starting grid, I think it is cool to see Gaughan back in Baja. Also, where is Jesse James? He has been atleast competitive lately.

Who is "We" and how is Brendan going to be educated? I assume you dont know much about Brendon Gaughan? Are you are implying that RG is going to school him in Baja and in a TT? Brendan's roots are in off-road racing and Brendon's off-road history goes something like this. He has won 3 off-road championships in class 10. He has won 1 or 2 Short Course Championships racing for Walker Evens and finished 2nd and 3rd in points several times. He has raced in a few Walker Evens class 8 and TT's but nothing full time. When he moved to stock car racing he put off-road racing on the back burner a bit, but in the past 4 or 5 years he has been back dabbling in off-road again. He was racing a Krager class 1 car in the BITD & Snore series and in the last year or so he has been renting one of the Collins SPD TT's. At this years Score Laughlin he raced the TT and finished 6th on Saturday and on Sunday he finished 4th.

When it comes to offroad I believe school is out for Brendan his family has a long history in the desert. If I'm not mistaken isn't his dad driving Walkers old Ramcharger prerunner in the NORRA 1000?

Yeah Michael Gaughan is driving the Ramcharger with South Point sponsoring both the truck and race as well . For those who think Brendan is just NASCRAP THINK AGAIN ! Brendan is LEGIT when it comes to offroad even Walker Evans himself mentored him for a while
