I received the following email this week:
Dear Sir,
Our concern occurs on many levels.
-The lack of race dates
-The lack of identified course
The fact that there are no racing sanctions associated with this race.
The fact that I may receive no Winston Cup points toward my participation
-The fact we are thinking of buying a 1964 Ford Falcon stationwagon to kick your collective asses

Y el coche? No lo puede verlo.
Yesterday, Driver 2.19 took possession of three desert racers. Two 1996 2WD Jeep Cherokees and a 1997 4WD Chevy Blazer. More to come.
Driver 2.19 has been working on a new engine program.

These guys made it coast to coast in 32 hours and 7 minutes. Check out the website at 32hours7minutes.com.
“The Iditarod is the famous long-distance race in which yelping dogs tow a sled across Alaska. Our Idiotarod is pretty much the same thing, except that instead of dogs, it’s people, instead of sleds, it’s shopping carts, and instead of Alaska it’s New York City.”
It’s like the $1000 Race, but with shopping carts.
Data from possible desert race test facility in Whimberley, Texas. Data collection by Team 2.19.
Ideas for documenting the First Annual $1000 Race…we can all learn something from the Beastie Boys.
Here’s the driver I’m trying to get to join the $1000 Race:
Dad Proctor and his custom Xterra. He’d need to scale things down a bit, but one thing’s for sure: He’s not afraid to roll.
The team logo of Carrera del Señor. We are like the mighty el Chupacabra. We will suck the blood from your racing vehicles. Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Check back often for updates. We’ll be adding photos, video and mind control soon.

Don’t tread on Team 2.19

What could possibly go wrong with $15 tires?
