  • 2017 marked the 50th anniversary of arguably the toughest off-road race in the World! Stretching from Ensenada to La Paz, racers travel across some of the most intense terrain this planet has to offer along the Mexican Peninsula.
    No matter the obstacles that lie ahead, all of the racers have one thing on their mind... WINNING!

    Congrats on Trophy Truck #1, a non-sponsored team beating the big name factory sponsored team with big name drivers and bigger budgets. Talk about being the underdog.

      They love wheelies down in Baja, if you guys are referring to the accident with the Honda team. The guy pulled a wheelie at the finished line and the road was slippery he slid out and I think someone broke their leg or something like that. It’s a bummer, but it’s a great example of never celebrating to early.

    I raced the Ocala, FL Enduro, row 3, on my line was Larry Roeseler and Ty Davis, late 1990's! Larry amazed me at every check, he stranded on his pegs as if he was talking to someone, almost at a dead stop, in line waiting to get scored. After a grueling 80 plus miles he never sat on his seat even one time in that deep sand whoops. I won my class that day, trying to keep up with those amazing athletes.

    I wish I had the money to do this kind of racing. It's impressive what the drivers and crews do in order to finish the race let alone do well enough for top positions. I agree with what the trophy truck drivers say when it comes to the guys on bikes racing. I wouldn't want to be one of them on the course with trucks flying by me. I think the guys on the bikes are the most hardcore racers.

    • @Supperdude9

      It is the "purist" route though. The Baja was initiated by Honda to prove their bikes could handle offroad terrain. The original Baja race was just two Honda motorcycles driving the peninsula to prove that those bikes were tough enough, and it grew from there. So, sure, it's crazy, but it's the original Baja.

      Amero I agree, the ultimate for me is changing the settings for the trophy truck, first I go to options then go to driver physics and turn the traction off, second I go to the garage and change the suspension to the highest ride height as possible with the grippiest tires as possible change it to manual transmission and make the shocks donkey kick on the rear end, and put on the worst Cooling, the weakest breaks, then I go race the Baja 1000 on time trial with vehicle damage on full and tree collisions on all, then start the race with first person view and no GPS then just try to not wreck, overheat, or wear out your brakes the entire Thousand Miles. It's a steep learning curve but it makes you drive your f****** ass off.

      Brock Larrick yes and many others. I must comment. Guy I went to HS with. His son is in a wheel chair now bc of Baja. Dennis and Rita Law's. Jerome. Jerome just about died there. His father managed d to save his life. Is it worth it? Everybody has an opinion. I say it's not
