Legendary Excursions announces Ocala Baja Challenge
Legendary Excursions announces Ocala Baja Challenge
Legendary Excursions

Baja-style racing is usually reserved for desert locations in the American Southwest and Mexico. But Legendary Excursions is recreating the Baja Challenge experience in Ocala. Legendary Excursions allows thrill-seekers to drive the same Baja Challenge race cars that compete in the Baja 500 and the Baja 1000 on several Baja-style tracks with varying degrees of difficulty complete with jumps, banked turns, steep inclines and more. Or for those who prefer a more relaxed approach to an off road experience, the company also offer 4x4 experiences and training.

Details: www.legendaryexcursions.com or call 888-522-9918.

 Scanon’s ScanStik

    Gear + Gadgets

    Double take

    Scanon’s ScanStik looks like a big long pen. What it is is the smallest full-page scanner. Though it’s loaded with useful features, it’s surprisingly user-friendly. Just press the “on” button and roll it down the page you want to scan (or multiple pages), then connect to a computer with the included USB cable, which also recharges the scanner’s battery. A directory will open. Click on file transfer or view the files with your default viewer, and you’ve got it. The scanner’s LCD display shows battery level and free memory and lets you choose between 300 and 600 dpi resolution and jpegs in 24-bit color or black and white. The ScanStik is 8.9 inches long (just right for standard paper widths) and about .5 inches in diameter. It has a built-in micro SD slot (but you must supply an SD card) and comes with an installation CD. You get free firmware upgrades, but, alas it only works with Windows platforms. Hopefully Mac access will follow.
