2021 NORRA Mexican 1000
Bio:
91 vehicles started the race, only 64 finished.
The GoWesty van finished 51st overall, first in class (RV)
We were driving a very slow race car, but a very fast house: and beat nearly half the competition!
Zero mechanical issues of any kind, except for two bent wheels (due to navigator error...)
All while handing out ice-cold drinks to the hot and thirsty course workers.
Not just because we are nice guys, but also because it is required of any RV class entries.
Vehicle:
The GoWesty “Trainer” vehicle is a 1987 Syncro outfitted with a bevy of GoWesty proprietary upgrades: 2.7 waterboxer engines, Fox shocks, lifting springs, lengthened trailing arms, steel skid plates, decoupler, front and rear lockers, posi-traction, and lots more. The “Trainer” is one of the most off-road capable Vanagons on the planet.
