My ex bro in law and I used to go to SODA races here in Michigan when they held them not far from where we lived. Weekend long gig. It was great. But, sadly enough, they quit holding them in the lower peninsula.  We had it one time though, went back to the pit area and got to talk to Walker Evans for a little bit. When he found out I had my 86 RC there he wanted to go see it. I was more than happy to oblige. He gave it a thumbs up. (this was back in 93 or so, I had only had the truck not even a year and it came from Texas so it was really clean) He's a very nice, genuine person to talk with. You knew he was busy and had lots to do but he seemed to always take time for his fans and didn't just sign something then brush you off. He'd talk as long as there was time. Still have the hat I bought and he signed. (and he had a 91 or so RC there painted in the team colors)

Yeah, Walker and Robby Gordon had a little thing going for a while. (more on Gordons part than Walkers) Robby was way young and would get torqued cuz Walker was older and could still out drive him. (at least that's my view on it) Robby was kind of a schmuck for driving like he did but, off road is a very aggressive race whether it's stadium, short course or desert...

Walker isn't racing desert or anything anymore BUT, he is doing rock crawling. He hasn't given up driving. Just slower and more technical now. 

Once dodge dropped the off road racing program I quit watching it on TV. Nobody to root for then.

I feel the same way about the Dallas Cowboys when Roger Staubach retired.

Like pulling for Buddy Arrington in the '80's.

The much awaited 2nd part of the JK experience is in.  If you didn't watch the first one, shame on you. No sweat just back up a post.  The ultimate road IMO. Definitely a must see.

Offroading in Ukraine.  These guys wheel for a week through some serious shit.  Chainsawing through trees, tree limbs sticking out of the tires, riding off the sides to counter balance the vehicles.  Awesome stuff but cant understand a word they say as they laugh their way along some treacherous terrain.  Good stuff.

Not a Mopar but a lot of fun regardless.
