Lots of carnage over night.

FYI...two of the drivers (ironic) are parapalegics. Nicola Dutto from Italy is one, and Kane Fraser from Canada is the other. Wild. Kane is currently runnning in 3rd place. There are no less than three Utes being piloted by the crew of Nitro Circus TV show? Looks like Dutto 1805 is stopped at RM 183, Morris 1801 is parked at RM 234, 1803 parked on Laguna Salada at RM 155, 1809 stopped at Borrago at 200 and might be on a truck to Ensenada, 1808 moving at RM 265 at 14 mph, 1802 Kane at 270 20 mph, 1800 Graves at RM 300 at 30 mph, 1806 at RM 320 at 14 mph. I can't find 1807 Godfrey who I believe is the producer of Nitro Circus. Remember they are not even half way done.

The Baja 1000 is a big 'ole fat race!

Very impressive of the parapalegics. Viva La Baja.

1801 Bill Morris is back up and running. So is 1809! It is still anybody's race.

Bill Morris is repping UTVUnderground down there all while going for the SCORE championship. All he needs is a finish!

 

[AZCourt]

They sure have a long way to go still.

 

[Darryl89]

Hmmmm, I notice that the lead car is 1806, an Arctic Cat Prowler, followed by a Yamaha Rhino... so where are all those RZR XP900's???

Good run for all though...

1801 Bill Morris has stopped again at RM245

1807 is moving at 3mph at RM 130 for whoever was asking

 

[Darryl89]

Check out the trench some idiots dug 10 miles before the finishline...

 

[rhinoadick]

f-ing idiots!too bad there is so many a-holes in the world that think this is funny.I'd like to ....nevermind its too early.
Great coverage ,being able to hear weatherman and see the speeds and all is really cool!Long way to go...

 

[redrhino99]

Bill Morris 1801 is in the lead at race mile 413 and second place is Kevin Fuller 1806 at race mile 380. Keep it going.....

Where you getting that info? Everything is showing 1806 in the lead and 1801 was stopped way back...like 80 miles back

Just checked, Morris 1801 was trailered into San Felipe it appears..he's out

 

[Darryl89]

Kevin Fuller in 1806 Arctic Cat Prowler is in the lead at RM400. He's got 32 hours from his start time to finish. So that leave him around 11 hours to go 290 miles roughly, which he can make if he doesn't break.

 

[Darryl89]

Crap, 1800 Thomas Graves is going backwards on the race course, he's trying to get over to San Felipe and is headed straight head on towards Kevin Fuller...

Might be tough because he has averaged 19.5 mph so far through RM 450 and to go the remaining 250 miles and come in within the time limit he will have to average 28 mph. Do-able, but he will have to pick up his current average pace by 40%. I hope someone makes it. BTW the Canadian parapelegic team is at RM405 in a XP 900. They took a wrong turn last night and did a whole lot of extra (wrong) miles.

 

[Bajaxp]

According to RDC 1802 made a major wrong turn and went nearly 100 miles out of their way. There is a bunch of people now rooting for the 'wrong way Canadians' to finish/win. Weatherman even gave them a shout out. They have to be droopy tired and they have a long way to go.

 

[facteryfmf]

When I was tracking at 4am arizona time, and typing on race dezert, is when they originally made the wrong turn. People on race dezert were trying to radio weatherman, to have him radio 1802 to tell them that they had made a wrong turn. Weatherman was trying, but it seemed like he couldnt get in contact with them....

Keep in mind, those miles were mostly at night, over the summit area. Daytime running will be quite a bit faster.
I just logged back on and see he is at 0mph at RM470 or so, any word on what's up...

Darryl...I am not putting your boy down. I believe he was getting fuel, because he is back up and running. That area is right next to the highway.

Don't worry, I didn't think you were Matt, all good here. I hope at least one or two make it across the line just for credibility. I don't know how many times Kane has run the Baja, but Kevin has experience with it and that means a lot down there.

Glad to see Kevin moving again, hadn't been logged on for a while so I wasn't sure...
