THE MXRRA® STORY...
Everyone asks "How did you crazy guys end up rock racing?" Well, it all started with the first FREE Jeep® Jamboree
ever to be held in Mexico back in March of 2002 which attracted offroaders from the states of Aguascalientes, San Luis Potosi,
Jalisco, Michoacan, DF, Queretaro, Tampico, Tamaulipas, Guanajuato, and South Texas. We began to hold these trail runs
to meet new people and wheel! 2002 also brought birth to various top truck challenge style events that popped up all over
Mexico. We attended, placed in some, and had a blast! But something was missing. That something was Extreme Rock Crawling
and Rock Racing! We continued the Free Jeep Jamboree tradition in June of 2003 but decided to end the trail runs and go more
extreme. In 2003, we decided to make our dream come true so we began exploring and building trails at PLANET GTOROCKS®, which
is currently the largest and most extreme offroad park for this rock motorsport in Mexico. This place is a paradise with transvolcanic
rock that offers great traction, inclines and competition gates for all levels! Plus the views and action pics up there are
priceless! Many describe our offroad park "Like being on another Planet".

| PROMOTING EXTREME ROCK CRAWLING IN TEXAS |
In 2005, we met Ranch Pratt, founder of UROC® and Rock Crawling Motorsports, at an event in Phoenix, Arizona and after telling
him about our offroad park in Mexico we were offered to promote the first ever UROC® Professional Rock Crawling competition
in Mexico. Labor day weekend (Sept 2-3) was the judgement day for many and the fans were amazed at this new extreme rock motor
sport that arrived to Mexico for the first time. We had all the incline verticals and magic that were required by UROC®. We
still recall when we began promoting and no one believed us. Well we would like to thank the faithful 3900 fans, friends and
family that were present to witness the carnage!

After the last Super Crawl championship held in Phoenix December 2006, we needed some more adrenaline rushing
Bongo®, that is when we discovered a new faster extreme rock motorsport called "ROCK RACING". ROCK RACING was founded by Mike
& Jodi Weaver and their XRRA® crew. ROCK RACING is one of the fastest growing motorsports in the world since 2005!
The FIA WORLD RALLY spoiled the guanajuato natives and now we are ready to show them that rock crawlers can jump and go fast
as well! This only keeps getting better! RACE YOU FOR PINKS!
