Jim — Good stuff. Keep me informed on the process. I’ll let you know what we learn from Dakar and the 500 in the spring that might be useful.

Jason,
I think the appeal of bringing tech to off road racing, particularly in Baja California, is the challenge. No cell service, so everything relies on low bandwidth satellite networks, like Iridium or Globalstar, unless you have some Ku-band you’re not telling us about.

I have one word for you when it comes to Desert Dingo and Baja 2008: Milstar.

Jim,

Kudos to you and Desert Dingo. Great minds think alike, I guess. We’re exploring similar things for future Baja events and for Robby’s run in Dakar in January. Would love to stay in touch and share ideas.

Sorry for not tipping a cap to your efforts earlier. We were in different classes (for the benefit of our readers, you know that) and therefore don’t focus on one another. But thanks for bringing it to our attention. I’m looking forward to exploring ways to make the off-road experience better!
