Alex Haase (above)won 7 Bandolero races at the Bullring, his car broke down in the final race for points and Joey
Mogar took the championship.
Alex update: Alex has moved up to Legends, and he has impressed all his peers and fans with steady
runs in the top ten, several top five runs, and some hard knock crashes. He has posted also a third and a second place finish,
and has won a race. He also finished 12th in the Asphalt nationals In Dodge City...Alex you rule.

Josh Gross#8 bandolero (first win 9/30/01) Josh will make a switch to the Legends in 2003 after he turns 12 years
old.

Joey Mogar, 2001 champ at the Bullring. The points fight between him and Alex Haase came down to the final race. Alex
gave his all but then he had to retire with engine trouble.Joey will move up to Legends.
Joey update: Joey move to the legends has not been without a struggle. After winning the championship
in the Bandos, he has had lots of mechanical problems with the Legend that has traumatized his points race. He seems to be
quite comfortable on the track, specially when hooking up with team mate Dennis Lovelady.

Hurricane Andrew Murphy drives the 70 Bandolero, he is from California.He bought Alex Haase #66 Bando.
Andrew took the Bullring by storm, winning many of the races, and taking the Bullring Championship for 2002.

#57 is David Ross from California.
David sold his car to the Murphy's, Austin drives it now. David Ross drives the 57 Luca oil Legend
at the Bullring.
Hayli Rochelle and Shelby Bailey are the best of Friends, and the two girl drivers in the Bandos.
Unfortunately Hayli and Shelby are a no show in the 2002 Bando season line up. Hope to see you in
2003.
Justin Johnson now drives the 8J Legend, but he started out in Bandos and visited Victory lane often.
Justin Update: Justin is one of the top Legend drivers in the field always up front and charging
for the lead. He has won once, and has several second place finishes.
