Unfortunately Team Pendejo Engineering will not be able to make it afterall... despite MANY late nights working on the Jaguar over the past weeks we've just run into too many complications and simply can't get the car ready in time. Best of luck to everyone and stay dry!

Sorry guys, Blanco Basura Racing is out too. We've been twiddling our thumbs here waiting for a window in the weather, but it's remained shitball from Santa Cruz to Phoenix for too long now and we're out of time.
Good luck out there, sorry we can't join you.

Hey guys, just thought I'd post some photos of a few of the teams I saw at the race this weekend - If you don't see a photo of your car consider it a reflection of my lacking photo skills rather than anything else (though your welcome to ask; there are definitely more).

Great seeing you all there!

Re: Phoenix Gavel-Trap, Who's in? Jan 23-24

Z's finished 3rd and 4th!!! We finished 4th and our buddys got 3rd in their Z. We only had 3rd gear for 70% of yesterday and 90% of today in out auto tranny and it sucked big time!! Also our stock brakes are crap and pads lasted 1/2 the race each day lol.

The Z's are moving up and we are throwing on some Brembo's and a 5speed and we will be ready to WIN Infenion!!

Here are the final standings sorry the pic is upside down:

And Dan our team captain personally won the "I Got Screwed" award for braking his leg Friday night and not even being able to make it to the track till late today:

No one got crushed.  There were only random moments of douchebaggery.  For the most part it was a pretty clean race...and the weather today was amazing.  Great fun had by all!
