:28:01
It'll be a long day. We'll get a finish
out of it, that's for sure.
:28:05
And off the line in Scott McMillin's
buggy was a rookie driver.
:28:08
His 16-year-old son Andy.
:28:10
Ever since like I was two or three years old,
I used to go pre-running with my dad.
:28:14
I started driving a clutch when I was
probably six or seven years old.
:28:17
I had a lot of trust in him as we, you know,
developed our relationship driving
:28:22
and just taught him
what I learned from my dad.
:28:24
At first Andy had
a little problem staying on course.
:28:29
Watch it. Remember. There's
a hole here. Remember? Stop.
:28:33
Here. Go this way. Stop!
:28:36
I think about it,
and I think when I have a kid,
:28:39
I'm never gonna have like
the trust that he has in me.
:28:41
Now take your time.
Take your time doing it.
:28:43
But he settled down.
:28:47
Go. You're running
with the big dogs. Boy.
:28:51
The trust that Scott had in his son
was well deserved.
:28:54
After a couple of wild rides early.
Andy had gotten it together
:28:57
and was in first place in his class
when he turned it over to his father.
:29:04
Probably hit him a little too hard. Bud.
:29:06
You got it. You got it.
Make some dust. Good man.
:29:13
While the McMillins have fun
on the cutting edge of technology.
:29:15
There are those who enjoy something
slightly more antiquated.
:29:24
This is Class 11, which gives a whole
new definition to the word "underdog. "
:29:28
You really get the satisfaction of talking
to someone that races a trophy truck,
:29:32
a Class 1 motorcycle,
looking at you and saying,
:29:35
"Oh, you race Class 11.
:29:36
Guy, you must be crazy. "
:29:39
Hey, those guys are
the toughest guys out there.
:29:41
You know, they've got
little support, you know,
:29:44
vehicles that are extremely challenged,
and they go for it.
:29:47
That's the hardcore
Baja racer right there.
:29:52
These are unmodified
Volkswagen Beetles.
:29:54
Not the New Beetle.
But the old Beetle. Pre-1982.
:29:58
No modification of the suspension
or engine is allowed.
