LMR in Doha Qatar!!

Just thought I would post up some pics from over seas. Josh and I just arrived in Doha Qatar. The car has been sitting here since the end of October. We are doing basic maintence on it and getting it ready for a race this week in Behrain. These pics are from the brand new(only) track in Qatar. We are going to do some testing here before we leave for Behrain. I will try and keep you updated with our progress.

I did a tour with the Air Force in Qatar around five years ago. Man that place gets hot and humid in the summer! Really kills the HP....lol. Probably pretty nice now in Jan. Made it to Doha once, nice town and people! Have fun over there.

That is so awesome that you would get to fly across the world to work on race cars. That would be like a dream come true to me.

I like how it became instantly dusty. I don't see how you could keep anything clean over there.

LMFAO

That is exactly what I was thinking... just a tad bit dusty. But then again, I am sure it is hard to keep dust away there. Looks good. What is the DA there?
