Whose going to Baja?

[MasterPull]

Who from here is going down to the Baja 1000 this year? Master-Pull and Hall Racing USA are partnering to debut the new #61 Trophy Truck. We are also sponsoring a Tier 1 Off-Road and Master-Pull H1 Alpha race truck. I will be going down to Reno on the 13th and then down to Mexico!:firedevil

I'll be down with the team. Dust Junkies and Fat City have teamed up again, to defend our winning title from last year, but this time we're racing the 1706 Wrangler...which is #1701 for this race.

You guys getting your travel visas? We got ours through discoverbaja.com. Just have to get them validated at the border...rather than pull off, fill out application, go to mx bank, go back to border, then validate.

Your OK unless your going south Andy.

 

[silverslk]

Only going to San Felipe.

Not actually a travel visa, but a tourist card. You need one if your stay is more than 72 hours or if you're going further south than the "tourist zone", which is only about 70 miles. That's about Ensenada.

Where did you get this info Johnny....? My understanding was tourist zone was quite a bit deeper south.

 

[johnnyc]

Just about every website I checked said the tourist zone is anywhere from 12-70 miles.

Who Needs Mexico Tourist Cards?
Travelers staying in Mexico for more than 72 hours or traveling beyond the "border zone" need Mexico tourist cards. The tourist, or border zone, can extend up to 70 miles into Mexico, as it does near Puerto Penasco, southwest of Tucson on the Sea of Cortez, or about 12 miles, as it does south of Nogales. American citizens can travel in the border zone without a tourist card or a vehicle permit. Generally, the tourist zone extends until the first immigration checkpoint south of the US border in Mexico -- if you get there, you'll know it.

Never needed one until you get to the checkpoint at Baja Sur(Guerrero Negro).

Wow that was an experience to say the least, I was put in one of the H2 prerunner that was on course for part of the race. Our h1 race truck rolled and DNF'd but the #61 Trophy Truck was able to finish with Rod Hall driving across the line!
