JAMES SEJD
James Sejd love for racing got planted deep in his soul whilst flying on top and through large bodies of water, earning various national championships in Off Shore Power Boat racing.
Having spent a fair amount of time in baja desert driving through 7 day desert expeditions, James finally decided to trade breaking waves for overcoming silt in 2022 by racing both in Southern Baja, where he decided to throw himself in the deep end by attacking the Trophy Truck Class, and NORRA in a Prerunner Class 1988 Ford Bronco.
And once smitten… the rest in history!
