The BAJA 1000 is one of the most epic races in the world and is most certainly the toughest in North America. Racers of all kinds dream of racing in the 1000 and for good reason. It’s not just a race among men in trucks but also of man against the elements. There aren’t many races in the world that racers are happy to just finish, but the BAJa 1000 and Dakar Rally’s are two of them. This is one of those adventures that shape a person. It’s a life-changing race and we absolutely understand it. From Trophy Trucks to Class 11 Volkswagen bugs, they all have to survive the same course through Baja California.
In this video, Ken Block’s adventures from the 1000 are highlighted and their impressive 4th place finish was made despite mechanical issues. And when Ken Block says this is one of the coolest races he’s ever done you know it must be cool as hell.
