Live race team tracking and race audio all race day!
First-of-its-kind online experience designed around bringing the captivating sights, sounds and real-time information of the 41st annual SCORE Baja 1000 to everyone! Yes, you read that right: EVERYONE!!
Created for this year’s SCORE Baja 1000 as part of an innovative relationship between BFGoodrich Tires and Volkswagen of America and combined with partnerships through SPOT Tracker, Aura 360, and DirtNewz.com, the new online experience includes GPS tracking for all drivers in the SCORE Trophy-Truck, 1, 8, Stock Mini and 5/1600 Classes in the race plus live and streaming video. In addition, off-road fans and the media will be able to follow the event from their computers via text updates on SCORE Trophy-Truck and Class 1 competitors and a real-time leader board tracking all Classes throughout the duration of the event. Race tracking will begin at 6 a.m. PT/ 9 a.m. ET on Nov. 21. 2008. Until then you will see only a countdown clock here.
“This new SCORE Baja 1000 Live online experience is going to raise the bar for the SCORE Baja 1000,” said Tom Jupena, marketing communications manager for BFGoodrich Tires. “BFGoodrich Tires has enjoyed a long lineage of success at the Baja 1000 while providing unparalleled support for competitors and the media. We are proud to support SCORE International and the SCORE Baja 1000 and we hope all enjoy this new online experience because it symbolizes our passion for off-road racing and competition.”
“Volkswagen has a long history of bringing innovation and competition to Baja since its earliest days. This year we are proud to bring clean diesel power to the desert, marking the first time that a turbo-diesel powered vehicle will compete head-to-head with gasoline-powered SCORE Trophy-Truck rivals.”
“We are pleased to be able to add an innovation to race coverage with the launch of the SCORE Baja 1000 Live online experience. Our goal is to be of service to SCORE International while providing the infrastructure and support to help each journalist get additional stories and images from the event,” said Campbell. “That brings value to the media and to the supporting sponsors who make their news at the SCORE Baja 1000.”
Volkswagen is the original four-wheeled Baja off-road machine. More than 40 years and hundreds of class and overall wins later, Volkswagen still plays a major role in SCORE International Off-Road racing and the Baja 1000. This year Volkswagen is leading the revolution in clean diesel technology, entering the Trophy Truck class with a special-built TDI-powered Touareg.
