-At 6PM Pierce Herbst racecar gets in line to cross the border.

In violation of Mexican Criminal Law. An attorney in Ensenada claims, "SCORE, BFGoodrich Tires and Herbst family obviously committing criminal damages".

He continues, "by Pierce Herbst crossing the border before addressing the damages caused in the CODE RED this afternoon", "a warrant for his arrest CAN be issued by the State of Baja California, on behalf of the victims in these heinous criminal damages".

It is POSSIBLE that Pierce got onto 'EJ's race-chase back to Ensenada. There was a point when both trackers were at El Chinero, together. Maybe they trailered the #264 and sent it to Mexicali.

GRAND HISTORIA
The "BAJA 500" was started originally in 1969 by the NORRA organization. After NORRA was removed from Baja after the 1972 race, the local Baja Sports Committee produced the 1973 event. Mickey Thompson and his SCORE International organization were invited by the Mexican government to take over the event starting in 1974. Sal Fish ran and later owned and produced the SCORE Baja 500 for 39 years until he sold SCORE in December of 2012.
The first Baja 500 organized and produced by SCORE was held on July 26, 1974 in Ensenada as the first of nearly 160 SCORE Baja races.
