Track racing of the Baja Sur teams, the last race of the season. Qualifying begins at 10 AM at the track with competitions begin at 6 PM local time. Advertised by the organizer: ProComp's Travis Coyne and Monster Energy Drink's Jerry Whelchel from the USA will compete. As advertised in Los Cabos by the organizer, these track meets will pit "Mexico vs. USA" drivers in off-road. Stay tuned for results this holiday weekend.

SPECIAL NOTE:
Rick James Welch, an American raced at San Jose over the weekend. Not, Jerry Welchel. This is a common practice in Baja Sur. Organizers say that a big name will race, they don't show, usually the organizers say equipment problems. This brings in the big crowds and pesos, fans gripe its not what they paid for and the circle of life in Baja Sur off-road racing continues.


KING OF BAJA.com congratulates all the desert racers of Baja Sur in this weekends racing!
