They are only forty percent (40%) refundable up to 45 days prior to the race event start date. The earlier you rent from Baja Huskys, the earlier we can start preparing your Husqvarna race bike to win.

The 250 lists for $5,999. Then you add all the upgrades - tank etc and it becomes a bit pricier. Teh 510 is $6,998 list.

I wonder how many, if any, will do it.

For under $10,000 you can buy a new Honda and do any upgrades needed and buy their pits for the race and still have a few dollars left.

Wide Open Baja has a limited number of their BC race cars that you can reserve for the Baja 1000 but I don't know what it would cost.

Lots of car and truck racers will rent you seat time but I don't think the top racers do it. By top racers I mean the guys looking for the OA or need a win for a class championship.

I believe a BC car runs about 50K. Then if you break something you can add that on too.

A neighbor's kids are doing a BC car. Forget the cost for the 1000, but they have to set up a guarantee for 70K for damage/destruction of the car.

actually i think the total out of pocket for a BC ride is about $12K per entry and they put 2 to a rig. Please someone correct me if i am wrong.

not a bad deal if you think about what rreal owners must pay. sort of "leasing a race opp"

and with a guarantee in place you just get a side insurance policy.
i hope to do it sometime. i think it would be a fantastic way to blow $6K!!

We've had several BC cars broken down in our pits over the years. Drug Scott Hammel (sp) aka Luke Skywalker out of the arroyo next to our pit for the 1000 2 years ago with a broken transaxel in a BC car. He yacked it up with us untill the chase crew showed up. He said it was 65K which I have heard before and they had 6 people on the car. The chase trucks were there, 10 miles up course from Cohobuzo junction within 30 minutes from them making the sat phone call. 2 trucks, 2 mechanics, 2 comfort personel. The wrenches worked on the car for a bit and declared it DOA and the comfort guys loaded up Luke and the co-dog and disappeared into the dark. The other 2 guys sat around the fire for a few hours, flipped a coin to see who got to eat dirt for 45 miles to the pavement, hooked up the BC car to a strap and took off. Seemed like a total first class deal to us. The cars are pretty serious too, 16" or so of suspension travel, navigation system, souped up Porche power.

12k x 6. 72k total. That sounds about right.
