Pit B: ORC's Pit B mobile satellite crew got rousted by the desert's finest law dogs, the BLM Rangers. After over an hour of broadcasting from this location minding our own business, we met Mr. Personality from the BLM. The crew was forced to move from the Knight Ranch Road location to behind the Pit B even though we have every SCORE access decal available for this race. This caused the satellite to be down for over an hour.

However, the race between Meyers and Ickler is raging in the Nevada desert. It's down to the wire. Stay tuned.
