Christy’s Racing enjoyed a flawless weekend
in Baja. The team rolled into town a week
ahead of race day so they would have ample
time to pre-run the course and formulate an
effective strategy. This years team included
Los Angeles natives Craig Christy and Steve
Abrego as well as Dave Scott from Belen, New
Mexico and Andy Lagdzins from Baltimore, Maryland.
The four rider squadron was strengthened by
four chase crews equipped with spare parts,
fresh fuel and necessary tools to facilitate
a smooth race. Once Andy got onboard the Duncan
450R it did not take him long to overtake
104a, thus putting the team physically in
1st place. Andy stopped briefly at RM167 for
fuel and some good news; he had created a
4 minute lead over second place. Even though
the chase crew advised him to relax and maintain
the gap Lagdzins stretched the lead another
4 minutes by the time he passed the quad to
team principal and rider of record; Craig
Christy. Read
