Luck Beats Good More Baja Tales With Pete Springer

81-year-old Pete Springer has been a frequent visitor to Baja for over 60 years. He watched the 1969 Baja 1000 and raced a home built-single-seat buggy in 1970. He continued building and running his designs until 1973 when he teamed up with Four Wheeler Magazine Editor Bill Sanders in a Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40. The duo won Class 3 in the stout Toyota that Springer had built in one month with a scant budget of $300. "Luck beats good!" has been his mantra ever since. In today's show, he shares some of the stories that illustrate his unique philosophy. I am indebted to Pete Springer as he was one of the two podcasts I recorded on my first day of podcasting in 2020. I love his stories and hope we get to talk again soon.
