Menzies, who started the race in 3rd place, battled all day with off-road champions Rob MacCachren, BJ Baldwin, Jesse Jones and Mark Weyrich, and a field of over seventy Unlimited vehicles. The overall lead changed multiple times during the epic 400-mile battle, making the race a thrilling event for the competitors, and the more than thirty thousand fans who showed up to spectate “ The Great American Off-Road Race”!
