The 1000, and Trip Timing

Am planning a drive down to LTO and Lopez Mateos. Would be in LM on Nov 6-8, the Lto on the 9-10. Will it be a zoo that far ahead of the race? Thanks

The Zoo will be on race the race day. Normal Baja before and after. Some pre running before the race, but the highway is no more dangerous, than it is any other time. That's my opinion, stay tuned for others! Have a fun trip

Not a zoo, but I've been headed north in that time frame the last 7-8 years and do see some prerunners zipping right along. Just be alert which isn't a bad thing at any time.

I don't want to pee on your corn flakes, but if you don't have Loreto hotel reservations by now, you're likely not getting any. But once the race passes thru town, there will be rooms to rent. Have fun down there!

If you do have a reservation, call and confirm it when you are a half day or so ahead of your arrival.
