Bill Savage Joins NORRA as Technical Director

Bill Savage brings his decades of experience to NORRA as the new Technical Director for the off road racing series. As the Director, he will be overseeing the familiar NORRA inspection crew of James Tiglio, Greg Garber, Mark Growe and Ray Files. This dedicated team is committed to safety and fairness for all competitors.

Bill Savage has over 50 years experience as a car builder and has worked with nearly every major off road racing organization Including the Mickey Thompson Entertainment Group (MTEG), The High Desert Racing Association (HDRA), SCORE International, Lucas Oil and others. He brings a wealth of knowledge to NORRA.

“Safety is number one for me,” says Bill. “Safety and providing a level playing field for everyone. I want to make sure the classic vehicles stay vintage and will try to keep the high costs of racing confined to the more technologically advanced unlimited classes as much as possible. We will always adopt the latest safety advances for everyone, but as long as the older cars and trucks stick to the same parts and configurations they had when built, their rules will remain consistent.”

Bill and his crew will be at the upcoming NORRA 500 October 11th through the 13th in Ensenada, Baja Mexico. The NORRA 500 is a fun and challenging event that is great for seasoned competitors as well as those who are new to racing in Baja. Easy logistics and incredible terrain are just some of the many aspects of this 2 day stage racing event that make it so popular. The fun, the competition, the comradery, the food and the culture in Baja make the NORRA 500 unlike any other event.
