Looking to crew for desert racing
Posted: Mon Apr 30, 2018 10:28 am
I would be happy to crew for any VW-based race effort. Class 11, Class 5 or buggy. I have zero experience in desert racing, but have wanted to do this for a very long time.
My first car was a 1963 Bug that I turned into a Baja, and I am currently building a dry-sumped, fuel-injected hill-climb car from the ground up, based on a 1976 standard Beetle. My daily driver is a 1970 Karmann Ghia. I know VW engines and suspension, and can weld decently.
I would be willing to pay my own way to get to the event, in time for pre-running. But since I live in Virginia, I wouldn't be able to have much involvement during development of the car. Of course I would be stoked to have a stint as co-driver, but my offer isn't contingent on that.
The SNORE Caliente 250 is coming up in June. Anyone need a hand?

P.S. Here is a picture of the hill-climb car. Just trust me on this.
