In general, this event is open to 1975 and older makes and all models. It is not a Porsche event, BMW event, etc. It is an ALL cars event that meet the spirit of the classic era.

Two tow vehicles, with trailers, ride along mechanics, tools are in radio/cell contact throughout the event in case you have a mechanical need.

We have been using the local Pemex for years on all manner of engines with no problems. Concerned because your car has need for higher octane? No problem; we will introduce you to our supplier in Ensenada so he can reserve fuel for you in advance// have containers on the one of the tow vehicles
Cell phone service
Most USA carriers automatically switch over once you cross the border. We will give you our contact numbers in case of emergency while you are on the event // Also FRS radios have an ok range and a fair number of our entrants bring them. Get ear buds so you can hear above your engine noise !

ahh bucket list event for me! If you'd take a 79 turbo I'd be very interested in this next year!! Have a great time this year! cheers,

I've watched and re-watched your videos - and truly want to do this fun event. However my car is 1991 Turbo (same old CIS engine as all the older ones :-). Please let me know if you're flexible on car age. Thanks
