 Baja California Mexico, has been a long time destination for a unique group of people that want to drive their cars, truck or motorcycles across the desert. This extreme form of recreation resulted in the now two world famous events called the Baja 1000 and the Baja 500 off road races.
Baja 1000 and the Baja 500 includes various types of vehicle classes such as small and large bore motorcycles, stock VW production vehicles, dune buggies, trucks, and custom fabricated race vehicles that can cost over $1,000,000.
The course has remained relatively the same over the years with the majority of events being either a point to point race from Ensenada to La Paz, or a loop race starting and finishing in Ensenada.
The Baja 1000 has attracted over 300,000 spectators that have lined the course and converged on the finish line that would be in either La Paz or Ensenada Mexico.
