LONG NIGHT FOR TRUCK #61 BUT LOOKING GOOD AS THE SUN RISES

It has been a long night for the Rod Hall Team but things are looking brighter as the sun starts to rise. Trophy Truck #61 has removed its 4 Wheel Drive and was stuck in a silk bed for about an hour at 3:00AM. The truck is moving smoothly now after great support with Josh Hall is the driver's seat.

Rod Hall Racing and BFGoodrich Celebrate the Career of Off-Road Legend Rod Hall

As the 43rd Tecate SCORE Baja 1000 quickly approaches, Rod Hall Racing and BFGoodrich will celebrate the history of off-road racing legend Rod Hall through a photo and story tribute during the month of October. 



To date, Hall is the most winning driver in Baja, has raced every Baja 1000 since it’s inception in 1967 – winning it 21 times in his class.  His records are impressive and span the globe.  Hall is known for more than the Baja – for his consistency, an impressive finish record and the longest unbroken string of wins – at 35.  To date, he has captured over 220 wins, and two years ago at the age of 71 he took home the SCORE Championships, the BITD Championships and the Toyota Milestone Award. 



With the help of photographer and journalist David Vowell, the Off-Road Motorsports Hall of Fame and BFGoodrich, we are able to present an impressive collection of historical photos from his entire racing career highlighted with his tales unique only to the colorful world of off-road.  Throughout October, we invite you to www.rodhallracing.com where a new photo will be posted daily, along with facts and stories.
