LAKE TAHOE, CA MAY 28, 2014 Twelve years ago Nico Pecht was diagnosed with MS (Multiple Sclerosis) at the
age of 24. MS is an incurable and debilitating disease that effects more than 2.5 million people world-wide. Over
time it has become more and more difficult for Nico to enjoy his time four-wheeling, but with the help of Rory
Romero and friends, he has spent the last 7 years dedicated to building his dream machine that is now being raced
in the Ultra4 series under driver of record Rory Romero. “Our intention is to raise awareness about this incurable
disease so we can find the cure,” said Nico. “I want to make a footprint on this earth. I want to let people know
what happens so they can get involved and help. I don’t want to just sit here.”
