What is this all about

[DRIVE]

All of us own a business or work at someone else's business. Most of us work so that we can pay to do what we love, off Road Race or just go off roading with our family and friends. Either way it cost $$ and there are a lot of people that are staying home instead of going to the desert because of it.

ALL the people involved in off road need to start supporting each other. We need a place to go when we are looking for a product or service that we know will put money back into an off road enthusiest pocket so when we show up in the desert it isn't empty or TAKEN AWAY / CLOSED.

DRIVE exist because my brother and I are a licensed contractor in San Diego and El Centro and my wife is a school teacher. Thats how we pay to keep DRIVE going and I want to make sure that I am using businesses that supports off roading when we contract a job.

Example 1: Just from running the DRIVE Series I have meet three HVAC contractors that I can call for projects that we have going. Calling anyone else for services would be ridiculous. Two of them race with DRIVE and one of them runs a D-38 Club.

Example 2: Just from running the DRIVE Series and meeting people I know two companies that sell construction and farm equipment. Both of them race with DRIVE and support off roading.

I know doctors, lawyers, brick layers, teachers, scientist, trucking companies, etc...

I could go on and on with examples but I think you get the point.

The purpose of this thread is to get the word out that we need to start supporting off roaders by spending our hard earned money where they work, whether they own the business or not. Stop spending money at businesses that have no clue what off roading is about.

This board is meant for off roaders to post their business contact info and what services they provide. It will be screened daily. If you choose to post your info here you need to include your involvement with off roading. ie. what you ride or drive and where you ride or drive. You need to include your name.

Post Example: My name is Doug Wasser. I run the DRIVE series and am part owner in Wasser Construction. My wife an I got married in the imperial sand dunes and I would like to see the dunes stay open for genrations to come. If you are in need of residential or commercial construction please call us at 760-791-7663.
