NO. 46 TOBY PRICE | CO-DRIVER FOR PAUL WEEL | QUALIFIED 7TH: "First me being on this course, it's been a bit of a mission, but the truck is in good shape and no flats. I enjoy coming down here even if I'm just watching, but it is a lot be er being in a race truck. [This is Paul's] first me down here in Baja. It is cool to share that experience with him." NO. 1 ROB MACCACHREN | QUALIFIED 9TH: "It was good. My son Cayden rode with me. He qualified earlier in the Trophy Truck Spec with Steve Sourapas' truck. We have a pre y good run– as good as we could do with this two-wheel drive truck. Ul mately, you don't have to start first to win. We are leading the points championship right now. We want to extend the points lead. It's what we are here for." NO. 41 JUSTIN LOFTON |QUALIFIED 10TH: "I wish I could say qualifying went good, but I think we lost a gear and unfortunately didn't get the run we wanted. It is part of driving these things. So many things can and do go wrong. Hopefully, we are mid- pack and we can hold our own during the race." NO. 10 ALAN AMPUDIA | QUALIFIED 15TH: "Even if we are outside the top ten, that's fine. The race that counts is Saturday. There were a lot of rocks and some off- camber sec ons. I almost hit a big rock. These two-wheel drive vehicles like to slide. My co-driver killed it with the notes. The game plan for Saturday is to play it smart in the first half, then try to go for the win. It's the qualifica on for the SCORE Baja 1000, so you can't go too fast and hurt the truck and end up in the back." NO. 43 LARRY ROESELER | QUALIFIED 17TH: "You know, that was a lot of fun. We have qualified here in the past. I think it was fair for everyone– whether you go out first or last. It is bermed up nice– some big ditches, some big jumps. We had a good me. We had a good run." NO. 31 ANDY MCMILLIN | QUALIFIED 30TH: "Things did not go as good as I planned. Somehow, I got a flat re so we have to start in the back. It is unfortunate– and almost in the same spot as last year. Some mes you can't do anything right and some mes you can't do anything wrong. We have done a lot of pre- running. The good thing is with all the rain hopefully the dust will be down."
