Racer Profiles: Jeff Harmonson’s Journey into the Desert...Started in the Forest

Jeff Harmonson's journey into the world of racing is a testament to the transformative power of passion and the unwavering support of a tenacious crew. Unlike many who start their dirt expeditions in their youth, Jeff's story began in high school, where he and his buddies would venture into the mountains, exploring the trails. From those early days of hiking around the forest to riding dirt bikes and side-by-sides, his experience evolved over the years, gradually immersing him deeper into the vibrant off-road community.

Racer Profiles: Gritty Determination...Shawn Runyon's Desert Dream Takes Flight at the Mint 400

At 58 years old, Shawn Runyon isn't your typical off-road racer. This TrophyLite competitor from Hilliard, Ohio, isn't fueled by youthful exuberance, but by a lifelong passion for the sport that finally roared into his life in the unforgiving desert. Unlike many racers whose stories begin with family outings on dirt bikes, Runyon's journey started with dog-eared off-road magazines, their pages filled with tales of Baja adventures. These magazines planted a seed in young Shawn, and a yearning for the thrill of desert racing that wouldn't be silenced.
