Final Race Truck Prep Underway

New light bar is nearing completion and other final prep activities are well underway with the Strobel Motorsports #94 race truck.  The team's plans are continuing to be fine-tuned to insure the team is in the best position for an optimal finish in the 2010 Baja Mil.

First Half of Prerun Completed

Owner/driver Steve Strobel and co-driver John Tondro completed prerunning the top half of the Baja 1000 course and have returned to Southern California.  Both daytime and night prerunning objectives for the pre-run were all met.

Second driver Dale Ebberts and co-driver Nathan Ellis will begin their bottom half course coverage later this week. 

Mexico Prerun Work Has Started!

The Strobel "advanced team" is in Mexico and the new prerunner performed absolutely FLAWLESSLY all day today!  Things are looking good for an oustanding session of course marking and race prep activities.

Team Leaves for Early Baja Prerunning Tomorrow!

Here is a shot of the finished Prerunner just before being loaded onto the trailer to head down to Mexico.  It will be asked to do a lot of course prep work over the next week in order to give the team the best opportunity to finish well in the 43rd running of the Baja 1000.

Prerunner Getting Final Touches

The rocker panels got some good looking and practical Rhino lining which also tied the truck together very nicely.  Time to go tear up the Baja peninsula starting October 21st to prepare for the Baja 1000 race which happens on November 18th.  Check back to the blog during race week for updates and live tracking links.

Prerunner Test Video

A little Nebraska testing of the beautiful new Strobel Motorsports customized Prerunner truck.  What an unbelievable machine and a great asset for the team's assault of the 2010 Baja 1000.
