so for all of who has never been there, is that road 53 all paved? that's a long stretch.

 

[JoeyD23]

Not sure right there if they are actually on the highway or along it.. there is along highway section out of San Ignacio that SCORE added to avoid a severe silt section.

Booby Trap on Highway 1 between KM 15 & 16. Drunk guy parked in the middle of the highway and sitting on a 5 gallon bucket.

300 miles with 15 hours to go.. we have been averaging 38 mph... we should be able to make it.

Top guys should make it.. but how many of the others will? Long race to go that far not to make time would suck

24) TIME ON COURSE [FONT=Arial,Arial][FONT=Arial,Arial]– DRIVERS/RIDERS will have [/FONT][/FONT]49 HOURS / (26.02 MPH AVERAGE) [FONT=Arial,Arial][FONT=Arial,Arial]from their designated start time to complete the [/FONT][/FONT]1275 mile race. [FONT=Arial,Arial][FONT=Arial,Arial]This year’s course is very fast and this time limit will allow plenty of time to reach the finish. DNFs will be scored to the furthest mile using the SCORE checkpoint and/or tracking data.

Oh good.they increased it then.. at 40hrs a lot of limited classes were pissed.

 

[Dirtchaser]

UTVs started at 1430 yesterday, so 49 hours from when they started after that.
