    The 2012 Baja 1000 is coming up fast this Wednesday & Thursday in Ensenada Baja California, Mexico

    Who is planning on going??
    Who would like to go down to watch an awesome desert race??

    This year the race will be a Penninsula run which is perfect for anyone that is not very comfortable being in Mexico because we can go to Ensenada wed morning after breakfast, attend tech inspection / contingency then go to a spot on the race course where we can spend one night and watch the racers go by in the morning then head on back Thursday afternoon and prob be in time for dinner! Haha I've spent a lot of time in Mexico and know where to and where not to go!

    Been going to the races since I was in dipers and I've never been bothered!

    Oh and just to reassure all those worriers this is the biggest event in Baja and the authorities do prepare accordingly.. they double up officers and even go out patrolling popular spectator spots in the middle of nowhere! Oh yeah and if you're worried about your "NICE Tacoma" lets be real as nice as our trucks are a piece of crap compared to the 200k+ prerunner a and race cars / trucks down there
