#11 had issues two days in a row. We know one day was some sort of accident that required some repairs. They have made up massive time.
Problems can happen to the best of them. The harder you push, the more risk you take. My friend says "It’s like being in a car wreck that keeps going for hours...
So at the end of day one, the Bronco was only 12 minutes behind #11 Boot, and at close today, is 31 minutes ahead. Tomorrow should be interesting...
Day 1
Day 4 results are in. The Bronco has indeed moved into 2nd place by a slim margin. #11 Boot made up some serious time today! Looks like #1300 has 1st place locked up as long as nothing goes wrong.
Tomorrow is the last leg of the race. It has some fast sections. I saw the Bronco hit 100mph on...
I got nervous when I saw the Bronco bypassing this section. My friend confirmed they altered the route due to complaints of it being too soft and rough. i.e. perfect bronco terrain.

The vintage Broncos are doing fantastic too! They seem to be mostly in their own classes though. So many classes! Apparently solid axle broncos can go fast too!
