OFF ROAD EXPO, Pomona Oct. 6-7


A great show... lots for the Baja dirt road traveler or racer!







The nationally renowned Off-Road Expo presented by Toyota is back to Southern California!

As the biggest off-road extravaganza in the country it is the best place to see all things off-road.

Baja 40th Anniversary display
Band Schedule
M.O.B. FMX — Freestyle Motocross
Bully Dog Diesel Dyno Shootout






Baja 40th Anniversary display
For the first time ever, the expo is home to an area dedicated to the history and future of the world famous Baja 1000 race, which takes place every November in Baja, Mexico.

This year marks the 1000 mile race’s 40th anniversary and to celebrate its rich history, race producer SCORE has created a display showcasing numerous historical vehicles, as well as pictures, videos and trophy cases from all 40 years! SCORE radio will also be broadcasting from the display with special appearances by Baja 1000 racers.

This year’s race festivities kick off November 10, in Tijuana and culminate November 16, in Cabo San Lucas and as a special surprise to all in attendance, SCORE will be announcing this year’s race route live at the expo – a can’t miss feature for desert racing fans!

Plus come for the social atmosphere with thousands of other off-road lovers to share your passion and have fun with the added features.

LOWEST TICKETS AVAILABLE ONLINE!






M.O.B. FMX — Freestyle Motocross
Sponsored by 96.7 KCAL
King among Extreme Sports fans, Freestyle Motocross features riders launching 70 feet through the air while performing an arsenal of insane aeriel tricks that can only be described as "amazing".

The M.O.B. FMX have established themselves as the new force in FMX as they have taken the show tour to a whole new level. The show format affords spectators high energy entertainment as the riders are consistently stepping it up for the crowds.
Where - Broadway


RC Races and Crawlers
For the RC enthusiasts there are two places to go. On Redwood, Cen Racing demonstrates the traditional style RC racing with professional drivers taking their scale models of the vehicles they drive in real life through all the turns of the RC course. In Building 8, RCP Crawlers brings you RC vehicles racing and crawling up, around and over the rock course just like the big buggies outside. It's a true test of one's ability to delicately yet quickly work the controls to victory. Both places will be a thrill of RC fun and action.
Where - Redwood and in Building 8

UROC Racing
The United Rockcrawling and Off-Road Challenge (UROC) Skyjacker Pro RockCross Nation race is the second stop in a new breed of off-road motorsport that combines technical rock crawling with head-to-head racing. Over two dozen racers will compete throughout the weekend allowing thousands of fans to get an up-close view of all the action.
Where– The infield of the race track adjacent to the Toyota FJ Cruiser Ride and Drive.

Pro Comp Tires Military Build - Sponsored by 97.1 KLSX
Pro Comp Tires, working with Pro Comp Suspension and 4 Wheel Parts want to say thank you to two deserving soldier’s stationed at Camp Pendleton. The soldier’s personal vehicles will be rebuilt and decked out into the ultimate off-road driving machines for everyone to see during show hours. Stop by and see the excitement and say thank you to the soldiers as they come Sunday evening to receive their new rides.
Where– Off-Road Expo Launch’d presented by Dirt Alliance Dirt Tour

Bully Dog Diesel Dyno Shootout

MotoKids/Cycle News Kids Zone
Courtesy of MotoKids and Cycle News, the Kids Zone is a special area just for kids of all ages. This will be the place for kids to have fun with the balloon artist, an inflatable obstacle course, register for some great prizes and enter the MotoKids coloring contest for a chance to win a brand new FMF bicycle.

Ken - and other Nomads - I sure wish I could be there, but it's too far from New Mexico where I'll be till early Nov. Planning to see you when you come to San Felipe later in Nov.

Maybe you could meet us at the 5 and 3 Interchange north of San Felipe, or at the turnoff to Laguna Diablo for our day hike??? That would be awesome! I will talk to Mike about strapping the tires (or a tire) to the roof rack of his Unlimited Rubicon. We will dump these off at your house on our way to El Colorado Restaurant that night!

Ken that's great. I plan on meeting you on the trip to Diablo or at Diablo parking - depends on what I have to drive then. Need some repair on the rail so?? But great if you could drop of the tire(s). I'll for sure be at El Colorado.

I looked at the exhibit list and the Checkers are not on it. I've emailed a friend to find out if they are going to be there. I suggest we have a backup plan. Baja Designs is at booth 9609 just east of the Toyota Motor Sales booth. If there is no Checkers booth we could meet at the Baja Designs booth at Noon. Or I'm open to meeting somewhere else, what say yee.

See you there... remember cell phone... Will have on Baja Nomad shirt and blue 'got baja?' hat...

We were at Baja Pits meeting today (Carlos' wheel shop) and it was mentioned the cost of a booth was $$$$ (a lot)... Probably why no Checkers booth this year...

The Baja 1000 history display and SCORE booth is where we will be some of the time there!

Hope to see you all in a few hours!
