Andy, you're welcome. Hope you all had fun. You guys drove the wheels off that TC4 and did an awesome job over-all. FYI, when we pulled Moe's car off the track at the end, we too had lost front wheel drive. With the two open cars included, that means over half the field finished with two wheel drive only

Shout out to Will for putting together the "dream team" and providing the car to win the coveted and premier Open class title for 2013.

Man what a fantastic race!!! Big thanks to all the drivers, hope you all had fun!! Lots of really good racing and whole lot of excitement. For this years race, we had 16 of 34 drivers who had never run an enduro before! Hope you all had fun, learned a lot and are ready for the next one!

Congrats to the "How's it Taste" Team on the overall win and the "4 Amigos" Team for their Trans Am class victory. Both teams posting dominating 30+ lap margins of victory.

Here's the finishing order and drivers list:

1) How's it Taste - Will Brinton, Alex Sturgeon, Brian Bernt, Scott Riggs
2) Team SKI - Tim Ski, Steve Javorsky, Nolan Waak, Kerry Burns
3) 4 Amigos - Jason Hall, Ken McKinney, Dustin Gochanour, Paul Dailey
4) Inner Circle - Jim Allmon, Derek Grapler, Brett Nelson, Dale Nichols
5) Shake-N-Bake - Moe Barraza, Joe Cook, Josh Chase, Cliff Darnell
6) Road Block - Josh Havens, Zeke Pullen, AJ Shaw
7) TFI Racing - Josh Todd, Gordon Todd, Josh Prososki
8) RC101 - Marvin Henriksen, Cole Henriksen, Andy Lachance, Calvin Viernes
9) Ram Rod - Travis Reitz, Travis Hizer, Dustin Hosick, Chad Hartshorn

Some interesting numbers from the race:

13081 laps - Most laps run by all teams (2011 - 13008)
755.62 miles - All cars combined (Winners ran 109.5 miles)
32 lap margin of victory - 3rd largest (2011 SKI - 191 laps, 2004 CMM - 52 laps)
9 teams - Tied for the most (2011)
Our 9th Annual race and 23rd overall enduro

Thanks to Steve Javorsky for providing the sodas and for the pics. Huge thanks to Tom"TQ" Quedensley for going solo on the mike this year. He got a few well deserved breaks and put in the full eight hours. I'll have some more help for you next time.

The wheels are already rolling for next years enduro. It'll be 10 hours, maybe more! Going to have 4 or 6 hour enduro sometime over the summer as well as a few Wednesday night enduros. Also going to talk to Z about running one at the MRO track in Lincoln, stay tuned!!

Results are here at the bottom of the page Enduro Results

Again, THANKS to all the racers!!

Thumbs up Team SKI!!!

I'd also like to thank my Team SKI drivers Steve Javorsky, Nolan Waak and Kerry Burns. I'll have the car prepared better next year and try not to put it in the wall so many times. With our bearing, axle and bumper problems and as out horse-powered as we were, to be in contention that close to the end, I'm extremely happy with our finish.

Put it on your calendar for next year guys, redemption!

Looks like it was a good race. Team Z, B, and FK will be back next year.


I am working on the MRO schedule right now. I am sure we can fit an enduro in.

I love this race and the challenges it presents, it's all about going just fast enough and keeping the car alive. My car still is not built prof; but its alot better then last year. This race was the only reason I started racing carpet. But I would also like to thank Scott, Brian, Alex, Tim, Andy, Cliff, Kenny, Jason, Dustin,Nolan and Tom for being the greatest friends I could ever ask for; and making one of the most fun races of the year that much more enjoyable

My team was all offroad drivers
