Started in 2021 with it’s fifth anniversay coming up in October 2025 the Baja International Tourist Cup is one of the world’s fastest road races. Average lap speeds can approach those of the famous Isle of Man road race. Our all time champion, Eric Wilson, averaged 126mph. Conveniently l located just a few miles south of the California, USA border the event is run on a temporary 9.95 miles circuit. Most races consist of several laps with competitors released at 20 second intervals. The fastest time to complete all the laps wins.
