Last year Revenge Racing entered a car - A whole bunch of us went on down there to lend a hand (emptying the ice chest anyways) and it was a great time.

This event is in Rocky Point Mexico and is a great time. Cant wait for this years race!!!

Justin or Chuck - you guys get a car done for this event this year? Ill have my car down for sure this year and we can carry some goods on it as well if needed.

rocky point used to be a lot of fun.

How about some details Rob. How many miles, classes etc. Maybe a chance to race the 11 car in Mexico.

We will have to see how things go. One thing for sure, you guys were a great help, and it always good to have family around for any event!

I alway`s think about doing these and Pete`s camp run`s but I`ve alway`s been afraid of taking my car down there and not coming back with it! Is there any info or advice you can give about taking a car down there and not getting hassled!

Sounds like fun keep us posted.

Rob, I doubt we will race it. We had the new race car all done and it just sold last week. A good customer of ours really really wanted it so we finally let him buy it. Our third race car chassis and suspension is done, we start assembly on that probably today or tomorrow. Chuck said something about the Nevada 1000 this summer...

Rob, we will be in the race this year. Call me at the shop for the details and we will make it a good time just like last year. See ya, Justin

We may make it down there.. if not a race car maybe just to prerun or maybe sportsman class in the race... in any case playin around Rocky Point and havin a bit of fun.

Our goal this year is the nevada 1000 JULY 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 2005 and entering one or maybe 2 prerunners.. this is gonna be a fun one! Here is the schedule.

We were just talking about last years trip about a week ago, had a blast down there! Be awesome to go back down there, hopefully with better results this time. Oh yea, rubber boots

The race is part of the whiplash racing series called Rock to Rock.

Just talked to my pops and looks like my whole family is heading down south for that weekend also!! I know Socaldmax is in also.. Madweazel should do it again also..
Its a great time for sure and the weather is usually perfect for some time on the beach and in some local bars!!! JJs here we come!!!

Been heading down to Mexico for all my life and never had problems. They can happen just as they do here in the US. Keep it clean and remember - your in their back yard so act like a guest and all will be great.

Petes Camp Poker run is a MUST.. Its in October and is a great time..

Looks like the monkey family is in if we got somewhere to stay.

Deb and I are definitely going, we will try and stay at the same place as last yr.

Gonna be a GREAT time!

How much are the hotels?

Looks like we may be able to make it based on the date, I have WTI through all of April but might actually be home in time to go. We had a blast last year! The area was great, we were a bit skurd going down there as well but I tell you what, I never worried one second about our things once we were there. Just good times

We might have the kids that weekend which means we are

Doh! Drag those lil effers down with ya, make KG be the DD

I'll think I'll have to run down for this one. I can't let all you effers have a blast w/o me.

here is a number for reservations where we stayed last year.
La Princessa
Im in Building E room 501.

Number is 1-888-262-4508

There are several places that are cheaper in town etc - These places are real nice with full Kitchens so you can cook your own breakfast etc.. They are on the beach as well on the N. side of town 1/2 way to JJs..

There's gonna be a whole pit crew down there. You mean to tell me they can't handle 3 kids?

It'll be no problemo, bring 'em!

gotta talk to the wife, this sounds like fun........

Desert Oasis is the RV Park where all the racers stay and is also where the race starts. Very cool place with a bar/restaurant on site and full hook ups!!
I just made reservations and they are only about 1/2 full now, but they will fill up very quick!

Phone # is 011526383852566.

How do you get there? huh, better yet where is Rocky Point?

Here is a good site with lots of info. http://www.rockypointonline.com/ Can't post much right now because of effin work, but we have been going down for years. There is also a campground with full hookups right down the beach from the Princessa resort. I think it is called Sandy Beach campground? That is probably where we are going to stay a few times this year.

The Oasis is to damn far away from town, I cant remember the name of it now but the one over by the Princesca was a very clean RV park. Its not a long drive out to the Oasis (if you even want to be up there) from there (20 mins).

We stayed at another close to JJs last year that was very cheap to camp at (11 bucks or something like that) that was clean, safe, and had nice showers (cost 50 cents or something like that) right on the beach. Probably stay there again this year.

I think that one is called Sandy Beach or the Reef.

This event is TOPS.. Fri afternoon (lunch) on the patio at JJs is the life..
Its in Mexico - its about 6-7 hr drive from San Diego and about 4 from Phx.
I8(E) to Gila Bend - South on the 85(I think) - Across border and head on down. Please do yourself a favor and get insurance. Make sure you dont have any weapons or ammo in your vehicles etc..

Rumors have it, you can cross the border in Yuma and take the #2 to Lukeville (bordertown in AZ) and then head S from there shaving like 2 hrs off your trip - In the past 10+ years ago - those roads used to be nasty so I never tried.

The Reef campground is right on Sandy Beach and is very nice. Full hookups and everything for a campground.

get your reservations early at the reef campground it is right on the beach and very nice. Or we usually just stay right on the beach on the other side of the reef, its like 5bux a day, just put your trailers/rvs in a half moon facing the ocean. I like camping in the sand better than the rv hook up deal, more like the dunes. Last trip we took the turkey frier and beer battered and deep fried 10 lbs of shrimp and grouper, fed almost 20 people,mmmmmmmmm We are going the 2nd weekend in Apr.

I could bring the trailer down and this way I could transport the rail...

let's camp on the beach, I'm in for that! I got plenty of water, solar power and fuel.

Got the big condo this year.. The Reef is right up the road also so thats cool and its alot cheaper. cant wait for this trip.. Lots of fun for sure..

sheet - I need to find me a set of rear rims and tires now.. DOH..

Reminder - get your reservations in ASAP - Gonna be a BLAST.. cant wait..

Madweazl, we made reservations at the Reef RV park for Fri thru Sun.


Here's the website, The Reef looks like a great place. Hurry up and make your res.!

Can anybody tell me about driving directions from San Diego?

I'm interested in trying out the route that crosses over from Yuma to San Luis and then to Sonoyta to Puerto Penasco. I heard it saves quite a bit of time.

Can you give me directions, approx. time and road condition?

Thanks!

Even from San Diego it is quickest and safest to go through Gila Bend then on to Ajo through the border and right on down. RP is 75 minutes towing from the border. The REEF is an incredible place.

Here is a view of the water from a spot one row in at The Reef RV Park.

Sea View Picture The REEF RV Park - Rocky Pt. Mexico

I've heard taking the 2 can shave off time, but I prefer to drive in US as long as possible.

We are leaving 4-5 am Thurs morning. Staying at the Princessa (sp).

Here are some new tools for Mex.. Should be mounted and ready to run tomorrow..

whats up with the Weazles on this trip??

He said he'll prolly be out of town. He'll know more as it gets closer.

What's going on with DB.come and Revenge? Who all is going, racing, etc? Is there a general plan or sked?

The Revenge gang is heading down Thursday afternoon.
Our customers Garrin and Ron of G&R Racing have entered their 2 cars in Class 1.
I am going to enter my car into the Sportsman class just for some cruising fun and to help support G&R if they need it out on the track.
Friday is tech/signup and then open pre-running, finding the pits, campground bar, etc.
Saturday is the race...buggies/trucks start @ 9:30 after the bikes.
Saturday night we get our groove on at the local establishments.
Sunday, hang by the beach and leave for home.

Should be a blast!

I have talked to a few of the DB.com guys and sounds like they will all be there w/Chuck to do some pre-running, etc.

Sounds like a blast! We'll get there as early as possible Fri AM.

Scott,
