Interesting and entertaining Baja 1000 Report

(tried posting text, ran into some special character bugs/technical glitches)







\"Probably the airplanes will bring week-enders from Los Angeles before long, and the beautiful poor bedraggled old town will bloom with a Floridian ugliness.\" (John Steinbeck, 1940, discussing the future of La Paz, BCS, Mexico)

Thanks... Class 11 is very cool. Baja Angel wanted to race a Class 11 (Seeing Dust to Glory may have helped that).

You do know about the suspension in a class 11. It's not for older guys racing 1000 miles. You need a Trophy Truck for that.
