There is never real been a Baja 250, it’s been always the Baja 250 I recall. The name changed for this year a little since MasterCraft Safety became a co-sponsor and it is now official the 24th Annual MasterCraft Safety Tecate SCORE San Felipe 250 in 2010. It’s a little long, that name, San Felipe 250 sure “flows” quicker in a conversation but ones got to respect the supporter of the sport. And for Robbie Pierce and MasterCraft to commit and sponsor the event deserves also the recognition within the baja races name. As pre-running over the rugged race course starts tomorrow, Saturday for next month’s 24th Annual MasterCraft Safety Tecate SCORE San Felipe 250, a growing field, that includes many of North Americas best desert racers and a few internationals, have entered this popular spring race. Attracting entries from 22 states and eight countries, the lineup includes a race-record 34 entries in the Trophy-Truck class, the top league in SCORE desert off-road racing.
