This year’s Mint 400 was the first race for the DWT Bomb Squad RZR. We were wide open to get the car done in time for the race. We did a shakedown on the Wednesday before in Barstow. The RZR felt great. This is hands down the best UTV that I have ever driven. We could have used a little more time to test and dial some things in. But overall, we felt ready and confident in our set up.

We did a photoshoot and pre-tech on Thursday. Tech and contingency went smooth on Friday and we were done early and ready to go.

The morning of the race, we got up early, headed to the main pit, and got ready to stage. There were over 50 Pro Turbo UTV’s and somewhere around 110 UTV’s total. Starting positions were done by drawing and we started in the back at 47th. We were off to a good start and maintaining a fast, but controlled pace. We worked through the pack quickly and I believe had passed about half of the field in the first 25 miles. According to split times, we were running in the top 5 to that point with the lead group only seconds apart. We were having to work through a lot of slower traffic, so I’m confident we would have been even faster with an open course.

Just before Pit A, we started having some issues that slowed us. Those problems persisted and we ended up loosing quite a bit of time. By the time we got back to the main pit, we were a lap down and decided to put it on the trailer and not risk damaging the car or being stuck on course all day.

We learned a lot and will take all of the data from the Mint to improve for the San Felipe 250. We showed that we have the speed to compete. We now need to fine tune our program to get it to the finish.

I really appreciate all of the support from everyone involved and I can’t thank you enough.
