March 10, 2008 – Riviera Racing arrived to San Felipe, Baja, California over the weekend preparing for the upcoming 22nd Annual SCORE San Felipe 250. No time was wasted as the jet black FORD F-150 prerunner piloted by Mark Post, who was accompanied by his son, Max Post, and longtime navigator, Kelly Courie.

The reigning Baja 1000 Overall Champion and his crew started prerunning at the Arches and never had a problem on the course. In fact, the Riviera Racing prerunner had the new motor installed only hours prior to the crew leaving Southern California for San Felipe. Mark Post commented, “Once again the prerunner has been perfectly prepped and we’re going to need it as we prepare all week long for this race. San Felipe is one of my favorite races of all time and I’m really looking forward to Saturday’s race.”

Rob MacCachren was delayed for one day after receiving the DIRTsports Magazine – Driver of the Year Award, which was presented to him at the Off Road Impact Show in Anaheim, California. MacCachren arrived late Saturday night and has been well underway dissecting the desert sand washes that make up this difficult race. For over 20 years, San Felipe has hosted desert racing events and Riviera Racing is always well-received staying at the El Cortez in south San Felipe.

Riviera Racing’s entire crew is here in San Felipe supporting all the prerunning activities for Mark Post, Rob MacCachren and Mark’s son, Max Post. The Baja Fools are slated to provide their pit support services to both Riviera Racing race trucks on race day.

The younger Post will race the #233 Riviera Racing Pro-Truck on Saturday morning in the first race as “driver of record.” Max has extensive time behind the wheel of the jet black Pro Truck over the past year while prerunning with his dad at the SCORE Baja 1000.

Prerunning was concluded on the beach resort at Laguna Percebu where Riviera Racing discovered two race team fans had just become engaged on the beach as the team pulled up to the beach front resort. The happy couple was smiling and announced they had met at the 2006 SCORE San Felipe because they were both Riviera Racing fans watching the #3 SCORE Trophy Truck.

Greeted by Mark Post on the beach, the couple smiled all afternoon as she showed off her engagement ring. Riviera Racing continues there march towards the finish line at the 2008 SCORE San Felipe 250. PARTY LIKE A ROCKSTAR!
