DU gearheads/docu. fans/motocross fans/VW fans... it's finally here!
"From the creators of "Step Into Liquid", "Dust to Glory is an all-out action-adventure documenting the most notorious and dangerous race in the world, the Tecate/SCORE Baja 1000."


This documentary is going to seriously KICK ASS.

Appearances by Jimmy Vasser, Mario Andretti, Mouse McCoy, and archival footage of previous Baja 100s featuring Steve McQueen and many more...

It's an IFC production, and a few crew members are from the IMAX extreme documentary crew (Fires of Kuwait, Everest, etc)...

The cinematography is going to be awesome, so see it on the big screen if you can!

2. They just might.
I know they're going to feature the Type II slot, which is strictly VW Beetles...


The 96 was the old two-stroke V-4, right? Kooky design!

4. Ahh....
I owned a Saab (a 1978 99GL), and I hate to say it, but it was the worst car I've ever had. It was such a bad experience that a few years later friends of mine wanted to give me their old 900S because they were moving to Asia, and I turned it down.
