After having to
sit out the Baja 500, the long awaited axles arrived. With false courage, I
accepted the final ride of the day. This is a brutal machine that generates
landscape-blurring views from the pilots cabin & jars internal organs loose!
Fortunately, John eased my fears with valuable tidbits of advice over
the helmet intercom, little things like "breathe" & "relax"... things I was
forgetting to do while experiencing a sensory attack of the first magnitude.
Understandably, John gets a kick out of showing of his car & skills, the
combo is among the quickest in the sport, with reliability as the only real
demon in the way of an overall victory! |
