Heck ya he has.
In my top 3 movies of all time.
I was just noticing that. 962.7 now…
That’s my dream. Imagine flipping with the g’s at that speed.
That was a few years ago in Laughlin
Saw that last night very damn impressive. This guy gets my respect big time don’t think many could do what he did alone.
Holy fuck I’m on 3 hours of sleep in 48 hours and about 15 of those hours was in a car ripping across the desert from La Paz to Ensenada. Waiting to see how we finished, might be first place. Had a slight issue in the final mile or two.
Nearly killed us in race mile 330-335 in the silt beds. It was fucking carnage of dead trophy trucks, class 1’s and Trophy Spec classes. Then the San Felipe whoops earlier today. My driver and I did 100 miles of the gnarliest whoops I’ve ever seen after all the trophy trucks turned them into absolute monsters that swallowed our UTV.
So many wild stories and jumping in and out of the race car at all hours of the night and day and then filthy as fuck jumping in the chase truck and racing across the desert to make the next driver/co-driver swap. I haven’t taken my race suit off since yesterday at 6am
Fucking memories I’ll never duplicate but instead replicate. Absolutely grueling but rewarding.
I need a shower, a beer and a bed to start the party tomorrow when I’m not so delirious.
More later…
He is through Baja Pits 25. We got him off the bike, fluids, electrolytes, and nutrition. He is off and moving to the goat trail. — at San Matías.

Hear he’s getting closer. I wanna pay this guys beer tab when he finishes I’m never into races as much but ones like this make me follow.741x that’s how you do it.
This right here is the story of the race so far. This Ironman 741x flew to America, bought this bike in San Diego, rode it to La Paz and after being told he had to find a ton of parts and tires cause his were bald from the ride down and safety stuff to race he did and he passed tech! He is currently in second place with never riding a single day in Baja before and no prerunning. He just stopped at someone’s random pit and they feed him tacos! Check out his quote lmao!!! This is BAJA!!! Go Wouter!!! #fishgistics #baja1000 #score

Congrats!!!!!
Congratulations! Quite the accomplishment!
Congratulations! Did you lose the hood? What are your thoughts on the Honda? Did you require any repairs? Is it built by Race-Co?
When racing offshore Bob Teague used to tell us “to finish first you must first finish. That probably applies even more to the 1000. Thanks for answering my questions, much appreciated and congratulations.
Incredible. WELL DONE. What next?Your phone gonna start ringing next week, factories & builders.
That is one hell of an accomplishment, Cheers Mate.
