How many 10 cars actually raced and how many finished. Also if anyone knows how much did it cost to race and how much did the winner receive from SCORE.

X2 good question. Who has the answer come on out with it!!

This would be good info to kinda base what large entry counts (racers working together) might do. I'm totally guessing but 7 class 10 cars , $8000 after entry, chase crew, lodging and food. Winner got $2500 from Sal

As hard as this is to post...here it is...

Eduardo Mejia, Atlanta/Jeff Johnson, Bellevue, Wash./Jessi Combs, Ventura, Calif./Patrick McIntyre, Los Angeles/John I. McInnis, III, Gulf Shores, Ala., BTC-Subaru, 23:57:14; 3. John Langley/Morgan Langley, Santa Monica, Calif., Racer-Chevy, 25:36:55; 4. Shelby Reid/Cody Reid, Apple Valley, Calif./Daniel Folts, La Habra, Calif., RPI-Chevy, 25:54:35; 5. Sergio Salgado/Gustavo Pinuelas/Cesar Castillo, Mexicali, Mexico, Jimco-Honda, 25:58:28; 6.

After two flats and a stop to replace a bent tie rod, the F&L Class 10 was having a good run and making time on the leaders (-30 minutes to Hall at RM 280, -7 minutes at RM 350) when the transmission broke at RM 373.

Oh man thats too bad sorry to hear aboout that. Thanks for sharing

[B-Dub 1020]

Sorry to hear that Mike, 9 out of 10 finished pretty good. Just for the record I know racing Baja is an adventure , a dream and bucket list item for most class 10 racers. That cost vs winnings in Baja does not count. But it should in the states as we have potential sponsors, promoters that can share the love and the oppurtunity to have 20 or 30 cars in class enter a race to make winning offset the expense to race IMO.

Well said.........but it would be nice to get a cost break down of the teams that just finished the Baja 1k

Notice there are 3 BC cars that raced in Class 10. How does Pro 10 feel about the BC cars racing in the Pro 10 series?

[B-Dub 1020]

Unlimited car with only engine rules. If the engines are within the rules BRING IT we are not scared!! But not SCORES rules they are once again diluted the class with their own set of rules instead of doing what the other orgs are doing and the MAJORITY of RACERS want.
