I wonder if the final course has been determined and approved yet, and when it will be posted for the public?
I have been thinking of a second trip down the peninsula this season at about that time. I had planned on exploring more of BCN, but a trip to
Lorreto for the finish could work out!
If you are not living on the edge, you are taking up too much space!
"Could do better if he tried!" Report card comments from most of my grade school teachers. Sadly, still true!

SCORE's course should run up to La Paz.. down the big arroyo for spectators (sim to Baja 2000).. then pick-up the Baja 1000 course up to Loreto.. Hope
to see the official course out in the next month...

It's going to be interesting to see how many entries show up to race. Logistically, this is going to be a nightmare x10 - only the teams with lots of
time and money will be able to pull this off, especially if you include prerunning. Will the Mom and Pop racing teams have the resources to
participate? Not so sure.
Of course, if you're a La Paz or Loreto or Cabo local, this will be an attractive race.

I couldn't agree more StuckSucks. It's going to cost a lot of money just to get to the start line....

Seems Roger Norman is trying to get in front of other races... like how he moved the San Felipe 250 up to January this year?
