Thanks Paul. I noticed on Pato Rojo that they don't show entries for Bikes. Do you know why?

We will be watching Norra in San Ignacio.

Pato Rojo is the U-Pro series and Dos Mares is the Pro-Baja series. The Pro-Baja web site is http://www.probajaonline.com/ I believe the bikes are running.

The plan so far is I'll be doing a pit at El Datil on Friday the 30th then I'm free to do whatever I want. If things go as planned I'll head south and watch the NORRA race at the hwy crossing below Ciudad Constitucion. I see that NORRA has changed the starting times from 9am to 7am. That would allow the NORRA racers to cross the hwy well ahead of the Dos Mares racers. I'll probably just stick around for the night.

I am going to prerun this weekend. I expect we will cross the highway around dark on race day, but I will know better after this weekend.

I'm heading down this week to pre-run the highway - pacific side - la paz section. Any other nomads want to caravan the trail. We will be in a grand cherokee.

As of today there are 143 entries for the Dos Mares --11 Trophy Trucks and 10 Class 1's. We will prerun the Pacific side Friday -- Then race on Saturday. Start is at 4:00 PM so we will be in the dark for most of the race.
