    Apparently that is against SCORE rules too

    The people who turned the video into SCORE are trying to get him DQ'd

    per SCORE rules the vehicle needs to be at a complete stop for a crew member to work on it and there is no pitting on the highways

    Robbie Gordon was penalized 1 hour for pitting on the highway a few years back, looks like bj may get the victory if they uphold the rules either way guy is crazy leaning out of the truck trying to fix/adjust that.

    lolz continue.

    "This is from Tavo Vildosola.....I am posting on his behalf as he is not able to post for some reason.....

    We have been monitoring this situation all morning long...The simple truth behind this video is that we have no reason to pit on the highway, risk our chances of winning our second Baja 1000 & defrauding the fans by doing something like this. This truck was not part of the Vildosola Racing chase crew, pit crew or otherwise. If we had an issue, where we needed to stop, prior to this happening we had our second pit (next to BFG) on the Puertecitos Highway section. Again, why would I risk breaking, a well known rule, which we have been accused of before (2011 Baja 500) pitting on the highway...These fans pulled in-front of us while we were running down the highway, Javi and I thought they were taking pictures, once we realized they were messing with our front bumper, I tried to move left but the other truck had boxed us in. Plus the guy was grabbing our front bumper, If we would have broken or swerved, then he would have fallen and as many of you describe, the situation would have been 1,000,000 times worst. As you can tell, on the video, as they are pulling away, the guy in Spanish is saying "go, go, go"!!! They were definitely trying to do something...Our next pit was at Coco's, we have video evidence that we stopped there to check what these guys had tried to do...
    Vildosola Racing does not have a history of cheating, we have never cheated and would never risk a Baja 1000 by pitting on the highway, I would have just stopped at our the Puertecitos pit a couple of miles before...
    We will be on Totally Off-Road radio tonight addressing the same questions about our indisputable win at the Baja 1000"

    Pretty sure it says #21 on the back window of the "chase" truck.

    I believe the rules state that video's have to be into SCORE with 24 hours of the race for penalties

    This wasn't brought up for 4-5 days so SCORE has that in there back pocket if they want to keep the win in Mexico
