Baja 1000 Race Course 2014 Map?


Hi,
Has anyone seen a map link for the Baja 1000 race Course 2014.
I've seen dates of 11/12-16 ? Though prerunning and transport back would extend that.

Knowing this helps to plan to avoid areas affected by the race.

Thanks,
Jay

You can go to http://www.rlhcomm.com/ and click the upper right corner and see previous race maps to get an ideal of where it might go, 2010 and 2012 went to La Paz. We don't know if it will run on the Pacific side or the Cortez side from the start. The race course goes to La Paz so unless Roger Norman gets radical it will go to LA Bay, San Ignacio then either inland by El Cuarenta or coastal by El Datil, by San Juanico, La Purisima, out near hwy 1 but not on it then turn toward San Javier, west to hwy 53 then south using any number of routes but usually near the Pacific ocean. Rumor has it that it will go to Cabo then La Paz. The SCORE web site says it will be 1130 miles and if so it won't go to Cabo. However a press release the other day said it will be over 1200 miles in which case it could go to Cabo. We'll know at the expo.

Offroad Expo is the "official" release date.. Roger is always looking to change things up, but the course will finish in La Paz.. Hope they can find a way to run the North section along the Pacific side.. There have been some great runs down the west coast...
