So This could not be any cooler or closer to home for me
Frank Kelson 84 starts the Baja 1000 with his son Wade Kelson 57 for Kelson MotorSports which was started by Frank in the 1960's
Such Great people go get'em Frank.

Wow, even his son at 57 is an achievement.
The only truck with its blinker on all the way to La Paz.

Just to get in that truck at that age is an accomplishment.

***NORRA 1000, aka Mexico Rally 1000, not the Baja 1000.
Norra is multiple sections over multiple days both traveling and racing down the peninsula. Baja 1k is 1 day and winners are finishing around the 20hour mark.

i hope i’m doing that at 84 GO FRANK!!
