The message to Wilson Motorsports from Bob Bowers: "Good work boys! We're proud of ya. Bob Bowers Dirtworks Films "
Bob Bowers Personal avatar. Who's blood is that Bob?
Eyewitness: "I was just a few meters. may be 40 mtrs. From the accident at Race Mile 55 aprox. I saw this guy trying to cross the road and he was hit, it for the 1rst class 1 #109, may be the car did not saw this guy, definitely was not the racer car's fault, but I was an eye witness."
Witness: "We were 40 mtrs distance from the place of the accident, occur around 10:40 and 10:50 am, the guy was in the left side of the way (if you go inside the car), so he tried to cross the road and the car was running so fast may be 90 - 100 miles and was hit it by the rigth tire, my brother was step up beside me and says, It was a kid and he run to the place of the accident and I just took a photo to the car seconds after the accident and was the #109, the guy was in the ground in the middle of the way, a couple of guys took him to the side of the road because another car was running on the road, and a Gray ford explorer arrives to the place and they pulled the guy to the trunk and then they leave the place, and they stop the car just in front of us, and a couple of curious guys ran to the trunk to see this guy and he was alive, but with his leg ripped off and bleeding we ask him to take him to the check 1 , to advise to the score guys the accident may be them can help to one way or another and that was all about the guy, so I asked the next day...about this guy and one guy confirmed the dead ."
Witness: "My dad was at the Checkers/ COPS pit and called for our Helicopter (and Weatherman relay) with our medic to come and help them but they drove off before the Helicopter got there. My father and the Checkers tried to help him but they where in a panic and drove to KM 160 on HWY 3 where someone was going to meet them."
In the know: "There were 3 accidents, the one hit by 109 died, a neighbor of his confirmed it...The video you saw with the guy laying on the sand with his arms open was hit by a TT, dont know his status. The third accident was at Rm 120 something, hit by the class 1 that plowed into a Tacoma from (Baja Pits)Locos Mocos, the guy was flown out and luckily its all bruises and tire burns, he personally confirmed it..."
"RM 3, guy hit by a class 3 but was ok and left on his own.
RM 7, zoo rd guy hit by a TT, injured w/broken bones & concussion. Video showed the body laying in the crowd.
RM 55, guy hit by a 1 car with reports his leg torn off and bled to death in a car. Sounds like inadequate immediate medical care.
RM 122, COPS producer hit by a 1 car, airlifted to SD. Got swift medial care and full recovery expected."
No denial from anyone has been received as of today, Tuesday, March 17. In one interview with a seasoned American desert off-road guy, he said the victim "deserved it". More Details Loading>>>""
From Ensenada Today:
Oscar Ramos of SCORE places "blame". Though,
he DOES NOT explain why, Wilson Motorsports
has now killed two Mexicans and not stopped in
either case!
"Ensenada, BC, June 8, 2014 - Óscar Ramos Jassen, representative of Score International, said that the death of the minor which happened yesterday during the Baja 500 Off Road Race is more the responsibility of his father than Class 1 driver Ronnie Wilson.
After the events happened in the Valle de la Trinidad district, Ramos Jassen denied blame on the California driver, saying that "the boy went to the middle of the race track to record with his cell phone, and the father did not control him."
"Ronnie Wilson is a professional, a serious businessman who is devastated and destroyed, because he could not avoid what happened. If he had tried to miss the boy, we would now be regretting a greater tragedy because he would have hit at least 15 people," he said.
He also regretted this type of situation, which he says are caused by "negligence of some fans."
"We don't know what to do, we had put on awareness campaigns, but now everybody is shocked and when the Baja 1000 comes, the same thing will happen again because the vehicles are more and more faster and there are more people who don't consider the consequences," said the race promoter.
He also questioned the lack of professionalism of a local newspaper, which the driver was another racer, Cody Parkhouse, as being responsible for the accident.
"An irresponsible newspaper, published the name of a racer who was not responsible, affecting his reputation and image. The information must be handled professionally and the journalists all do need to be more concerned with their sources being reliable. They said we hid information when we never did," he said.
Finally, he said that the spectators continue to cause problems, "when something happens, the criticize it and speak without having the facts. On social networks there are many baseless comments, made flippantly," he said."

"Wilsons considered guilty of running over victim"
""Being on the ""race course""
"Because playing with his cell phone to videotape over the participants of the race Off Road (off road) Baja 500, being hit caused the teenager died Saturday afternoon east of Valle de la Trinidad. According to reliable sources, there is evidence pointing and a video allegedly responsible for his death the child identified as Juan Jose "N", 13, a fact that is being investigated by the Deputy Justice on this port. Organizers Score International pointed out that the runner Ronny Wilson, 52, a native of Long Beach, California, was arrested for hitting the boy with his vehicle number 153, but hours later he was released on bail. Although initially there was confusion with other participants of the event presented to the competent authorities at a checkpoint was assured the U.S., later to be transferred to the Public Ministry of Common Law (AMPFC). The fatal accident occurred around 17:30 pm on June 7, at the height of the 258 mile route, a mile and a half before boarding the Ensenada-San Felipe federal highway in the vicinity of populated Matthias.Data collected now report that the deceased was accompanied by his father and brother when he placed his telephone equipment on the road, so in an oversight was hit from behind by the car racing."

Baja Racing Fan from Mexicali, Baja California, Arturo Elias:
"The deceased child was on the side of the road sitting at a table eating with his dad, the car left the road hit him in the head. While it is true that many people do not take care, we must not generalize, there is nothing to protect the attendees to watch the races."
Cody Parkhouse comments:
"We didn't hit anyone. Nobody was arrested. At the finish line score and the police asked my dad to go to the police station and give our side of it. When they found out it was when I was driving they called and asked me to go to the police station also. I gave my side (which wasn't much as the incident didn't involve us), and they let us go. As we were leaving they got confirmation that it was another car."
Austin Farner said, "it was not the Parkhouse car but another car who hit them.....but yes Parkhouse car was arrested at the finish and put in cuffs".
"A minor died when run over Saturday afternoon, presumably by one of the participants in the Baja 500. The accident happened in the Valle de la Trinidad district, and the victim was a 13-year old named Juan José "N". The events were reported around 6:30PM on a local road used as a part of the race route for the Baja 500, where the minor lay dead. According to the first official data, it is believed the vehicle as a Trophy Truck in the Baja 500, however, this is not certain since the driver was not detained. The minor lay on the road where the Public Ministerial agents came to inspect the body and have it removed for an autopsy." CLICK HERE FOR LOCAL STORY

***Crash!, racer goes OVER concrete barrier into public crowd...really, through a k-rail! And into a public viewing area...sure, these racers can drive!? Professional!?! Yeah, right. The UTV idiots put it this way: "Baja is dangerous. You are never guaranteed a full or fair day of racing. Sean Cook had barely made it out of Ensenada, only minutes into the Baja 500 before tragedy struck. Cook missed a turn at speed and smashed strait into a k-rail. He and his co-driver were lucky to walk away." Wrong. they are lucky they didnt kill anybody!

| Team Co-Driver Tim Whale Adult Hag Tori Black CM Productions Mark Hoashi, all responsible for the ugly ass bitches producing the smut! If you're gonna do smut, please do it right! Stay off our Baja race courses, hacks! Baja 500 2014Trophy Spec #869 driver of record Tim Whale and business partner Mark Hoashi successfully started the 46th
running of the 2014 SCORE Baja 500. The Trophy Spec truck started 10th
in class and moved up to second in class within the first 100 miles!
The outcome ended with the Baja superseding their podium finish at race
mile 147 where a silt rut swapped out the rear end, slowly rolling the
truck over consequently bending the rear tracking bar. In other words, these guys can't drive and the operation guiding them, did a great job. LOL “This is a huge defeat for me, I think we are officially out at the moment,” said Tim Whale. “The Driven Experience group has given us the opportunities to learn and it was up to us to finish. They have done everything they could to get the truck running again, but as it sits right now, we are going to have to call the race and head back to Ensenada.”  “What
a day, what a day. We had an exciting start and we can’t forget that,”
said Mark Hoashi in a voice of defeat. “Chuck (Dempsey) and I waited it
out until a couple hours ago, yea it’s been a long day, actually 3
weeks, but this is how it ended.” In this year’s 447 mile 46th
Tecate SCORE Baja 500, 126 finished of the 232 to start, a 54% finish
rate. Specifically in the Trophy Spec class, 4 finished of the 10
starters.Team BaDoink Trophy Spec #869 took the 60th green flag on Saturday June 7th, starting 10th in their Trophy Truck Spec Class. “This has been an eye opening experience. We watched all kinds of GoPro Videos and there is nothing that can show the detail and difficulty of what we actually had to learn before racing. We have learned so much in the last couple weeks it is amazing,” said Tim Whale, driver of record.  Three
weeks ago Tim and Mark didn’t have any understanding of the dynamics of
an off-road vehicle or the Baja desert. After an intensive two weeks
of driving between Driven Experiences training facility at Gateway
Canyons Resort in Colorado, the deserts of Barstow California and a full
week in Baja pre-running, the team knew the tool box was loaded and it
was up to them to execute. Although nothing except experience can
prepare you for the ride of a lifetime, even offroad professionals don’t
finish this grueling race.""Ultimate D-Bags, Congrats! |

***Fan Struck and killed before start of BAJA 500 2014
"An off road racing fan identified as Pablo Cruz, 45 years old, died Thursday afternoon, after a motorcycle accident on the eve of the Baja 500.
Personnel from the Deputy Attorney General for Ensenada, reported that the man originally from Ensenada, who lived in Ontario, California, was reported dead around 6:59PM.
A report was made through Central Command, that a person had died in Hospital Velmar, and state attorney general agents and the coroner went to the hospital.
The son of the deceased told the authorities that his father was a fan of the Baja 500, and that he hit another motorcycle ridden by a person entered into the official race.
Death investigated.
Unofficial versions say that the deceased had the fatal accident by crashing his motorcycle into an official participant, and he was then taken to a private hospital in a helicopter, where he died moments later.
As of the moment, further details of the accident are not known, but ministerial police agents are carrying out an investigation to clarify the cause of death.
On the El Vigía website, reader Anaheli Sarabia López wrote, "Pablo is the brother of a good friend of ours. What I can tell you is the race team that crashed is taking care of all the costs."
"I think that is a very generous act on their part, in spite of the fact that everything indicates Pablo was driving the wrong way on the road, this is being investigated.....and in the helicopter which airlifted him there was also the race team which was maintaining the car," she ended."
***Drunk and driving fan killed in horrific crash
"At the road that goes to Ojos Negros, a large accident left 10 people injured after the microbus they were travelling in ended up crashing into a Jetta that cut it off at high speed. The driver of the Jetta ended up being killed instantly when the top of her car came off. The first investigation at the location of the accident indicate that the woman was drunk. It was around 7AM, when the accident was reported to have occured on the way to th El Roble subdivision with a microbus from the Amarillos line on the route from Carranza to El Roble. It was heading to that area with more than 10 passengers when the accident occurred. Red Cross personnel arrived quickly to render first aid to the injured, who had to be removed from the microbus, NO. 172. Authorities have not yet given out the names of those injured on the microbus, but none are seriously injured."
***Reported Friday June 5
Larry Roeseler struck and killed a moto rider, June 5th, coming down from Mikes Sky Rancho in prerun truck, head-on. The biker was on a non-race bike cruising up to Mikes with his kids following on bikes.
Larry Roeseler, who has called himself, "Mr. Baja", was flown out of the country.
From another source:
One of the Ensenada papers reported on it. The dead man is from Ensenada but currently lives in Ontario. Apparently the race team that was involved got him helicoptered to a hospital where he died. Police did not find out until he was pronounced dead at the hospital.
The victim, a race fan, his son said they were traveling backwards on 'what is considered the official race course' and knew he was traveling on 'the race course'. Though, the route is not considered an active race course until the green flag drops on the event. 'The official start of the race'.
They also reported that the family is grateful because the team that hit him is paying for all the expenses even though they are not required to. It is not a big story in Ensenada, because its considered 'gringo on gringo'.

Big news in Baja sees the Johnny Campbell Racing Honda squad calling it quits after a hugely successful run in Mexico that’s seen them accumulate more wins than any manufacturer, including the last 17 Baja 1000 victories in a row.
The official JCR press release provided no real explanation, but theories include SCORE doubling the number of events in the series (stretching some race team budgets beyond the breaking point, apparently) and lack of insurance.
THR Motorsports/Monster Energy/Precision Concepts Kawasaki’s effort quickly followed suit with the FMF/Bonanza Plumbing KTM team yet to make an announcement one way or the other."

Race Course Emergency Revisions!
Roger Norman panics over forced course blockages by landowners and MONSTER Mike's vigilantes strike the race course:
"Baja 500 Course Rerouting
At race mile 385 there is a 10+ mile detour. It is being re-staked and re-plotted this morning and vcp's are being moved over. It is approx a 12 mile section.
There is another section, just south of Eurendia, where a farmer has bladed a road for 2 miles to take the course away from his farm.
If anyone is in the area and able to plot the new trail SCORE would greatly appreciate it. VCP's 24-25-26 will not be needed as the course has been moved away from the farmers fields. The new trail needs to be plotted from where it leaves the original course at approximately RM 117 to where it re-enters the course at approximately RM 119."
" The (Official race) markers were vandalized and we are supposed to follow the GPS course. The vandalism starts around mile 385. Go right past the wall of wrong way signs. I must say, someone spent a very long time moving all of the markers. (an insider said MONSTER Mikes BAJA Crew did it) From our prerun over the weekend, we went old school and didn't use GPS, In a stock raptor so keep that in mind.... Beach to San matias was fine. A little faster than last year. Right around 180 there is a nice short fresh section that could get some people. Last section before Mikes was slow. Diablo vcp situation was terrible. Not many lines dug in yet so we spent a lot of time trying to find them. It should get dug in though. Course marking got worse and worse coming into indendencia to hwy 3, and we got confused with old markers. From km77 to ojos had some new in there, but some technical mixed in. All In all, lots of new stuff where we least expected it but great course. The second half will take longer than we thought."
