I Race in Japan

[RobertVL]

- How you got into desert racing.

I have never raced in the desert. I keep getting invitations from the Yokohama Geolander team during Baha. But as of yet I havent been.
I race in Japan in the Offroad Short Course Circuit known as JFWDA .
- How you have found this website.

I have been checking out this site for about 3 years now.
Mostly for information on building and repairing race trucks.

- What vehicle you play with.

I have been racing in the production class with engines under 1500cc
But moved up to a tube frame 4wd this month


- Your future plans in respect to desert racing.
Will be running this new truck competing against the top Japanese teams with a beer budget.
I might be coming to Baha this year to help out Hanawa-san(Team Geolander) and his team.
- What keeps you busy during the day? Job, School

I own a couple of businesses and I teach at University.

Thanks
