Robby seems to have left the course just 20 miles from the finish and came down Hwy. 3 and is south of Ensenada now... ??
Roger Norman is next coming into Ensenada, followed by Tim Herbst.
Well, and interesting ending to the Trophy Truck leadership...
Meanwhile, Class 11 is still out there, north of San Felipe... just halfway done in today'srace.
Fun stuff...

Hi Keri,
Sorry... I just now saw this (have family over here visiting tonight)...
The bikes start their race way ahead of the full size four wheeled vehicles (3 hours between the last bike and first Trophy Truck).
The top finishing bikes will never see a Trophy Truck... the slower ones will!
