Trophy Trucks Take Their Turn at Thursday Tech on Centenario

Thursday tech is live now on Boulevard Centenario.

SCORE International has day two of tech and contingency under way in San José del Cabo. Wednesday belonged to the motos, the quads, every UTV class except Pro Ultimate UTV, and selected four wheel classes. Today is for all remaining four wheel classes, including the Trophy Trucks, Trophy Truck Spec and Class 1. Those teams have to complete the full list today: on site registration and race day bands, interviews, transponder checks, contingency, tech inspection, and Stella tracking installation.

Contingency runs from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. MST along Boulevard Centenario, between Calle Alvaro Obregon and Calle Manuel Doblado. Tech sits at the end of that row and runs until 6 p.m. MST. Officials are doing mandatory mechanical and safety inspections. Teams also pick up SPICA at the end of the row. There are no chassis inspections on tech days.

Racer registration is in its last day at Rancho Frondoso, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. MST, with no new walk ins after 3 p.m. A banded driver of record or co driver can take a race vehicle straight to the start of the tech and contingency line if registration was already finished on Tuesday or Wednesday.

The same boulevard is the start and finish. Motos and quads leave it at 1 a.m. Friday. Four wheel classes start at 9 a.m. Friday. Every vehicle has a 40 hour limit from the time it leaves the line.

This is the first Baja 1000 run entirely in Baja California Sur, starting and finishing in San José del Cabo.

SCORE is carrying the row live, with Rat Sult and Kevin Johnson on the broadcast.

The front of Thursday's tech line belongs to the top 10 qualifiers. That story is here: https://fastndirty.com/on-the-wire/top-ten-qualifiers-lead-thursday-tech-on-centenario
