JeepSpeed

A couple of guys from church and I are starting an off-road racing team. We are going to be in a class/division called JeepSpeed which uses Jeeps with minimal modifications to keep costs low. We already purchased our base vehicle, a 1994 Jeep Cherokee with 4WD and manual transmission. We decided that we would get a stock car and build ourselves instead of buying a race-ready car so we can learn how to fix it if/when we break something during races. It will probably take another year and ~$10k to complete the build. One of the goals is to eventually enter the SCORE Baja 500 or Baja 1000 race down in Mexico.

Some YouTube videos... Randy is on our team. I wonder how fast I can drive my stock 4x2 4Runner on dirt.
