:00:24
Weatherman to all checkpoints.
:00:26
I'm looking for status on 99 Alpha, please,
between Valle de Trinidad and Milling.
:00:36
They race the clock
in a land that defies time.
:00:39
Sharing an adventure in a place
where reality is on holiday.
:00:42
It's the most beautiful place in the world.
It's the most scary place in the world.
:00:46
And it's the most
desolate, quiet place.
:00:48
You love it, you hate it, you love it,
you hate it, you love it, you hate it.
:00:51
You don't wanna be there,
you wanna be there.
:00:52
It's like a girl that breaks your heart.
:00:54
"I hate you, I never
wanna see you again.
:00:56
I'm sorry.
Can I come over?"
:00:58
You look up at the stars
and there's no smog.
:01:00
You smell the ocean breeze,
you hear the birds.
:01:03
You hear the whales,
you hear the seals.
:01:05
I think Baja gives you
that opportunity to feel that,
:01:08
to get closer to something
that's more instinctual.
:01:12
It's difficult to put into words
because it's an emotion.
:01:15
That's what Baja is,
something you feel.
:01:32
What do you call a race where
anybody with any vehicle can enter.
:01:35
A race where 200.000 spectators
come but no one pays admission.
:01:40
A race that takes 32 hours
for 1.200 people
:01:43
to battle 1.000 merciless miles
for a million different reasons?
:01:46
Call it the Tecate Score Baja 1000.
:01:50
Someone asked Parnelli Jones,
:01:52
and he said it's like being
in a 24-hour plane crash.
:01:55
'Cause the 1000,
so much can go on.
:01:57
Think about what happens,
you know, in the Daytona 500.
