Do you remember Glen Harris and the California Gold-Team Mazda off road racing team? They raced some desert races, but mostly the Mickey Thompson MTEG stadium races. They were a force to be reckoned with! Do you have any photos you would like to post?
Hi, I glad to see some old photos of the good old days. I was part of the Glen Harris / California Gold Race Team. Prior to that i was employed at North American Racing “RACECO” with David Kreisler & Marty Letner.
I was a fabricator on the team for the first couple of years after Glen took over the program from Walker Evans. I worked with Nye Franks shop along with George, Marty, Phill and a few others to build/test the Mazda race trucks and we raced on the Mickey Thompson Stadium Racing circut at that time.
I miss to days. Wow how time flys ! Im alway looking back from time to time and didn’t know how good i had it and how lucky i was to be a part of off-road racing and how much we changed it.
I will bookmark your site and sometime down the road see if i can add some pic’s of to the site.
Best Regards
