Looks as if #71 might also be a Bronco, based on posts from Andrew from yesterday.

It's only serious if bailing wire is involved.

Wait, the Mexican 1000? Due to the time of year, that has to not be the same race at the Baja 1000??

It isn't the Baja 1000.

If I understand it correctly, it is the same concept and route.........they just stop at the end of each day rather than run straight through until the end.
