A record of 150 entries are announced to start at El Centenario having all the goal to reach the Tecolote Beach at the other end of the city by doing a loop thru southern Baja racing to and along the Pacific site of the peninsula and crossing over to the Sea of Cortez near Todos Santos. Luis “Fito” Ramirez won the race in overall time of 3 hours 34 minutes 24 seconds. There was some kind of a “traffic-jam” near Los Filos so that many of the race paricipants had a severe delay. (More on this at the Coyote 300 website when we receive facts). The Trophy Trucks, Class 1, Class 12, some Class 8 been able to pass that location why a majority of the racers got hold up and ended the race in 6 and more hours.
