Too bad i didn't turn the camera on until after we climbed "the wall" after we got stuck. And too bad the tape ran out just before the huge silt bed. And too bad the camera doesn't show much of the course. But it's better than nothing

Re: in-cab video of desert race in the '71
I almost forgot i posted this here, Thanks guys.
It was a blast for sure. Next race will be 10x better because we should be hauling the mail instead of crawling like in the video
We figured that because we were going so slow, we were just bouncing through every little hole and if we were to have gone faster, we would of been skipping over a majority of it. Plus all the other goodies we will have on the truck next race... sooo excited.

Ryan,
Nice video, although I don't know how you ever got the camera to stay there! My back started hurting 10 seconds into the video! Sure hope you've got 5 point harnesses in the truck.
