Freedom Motorsports is heading back to Baja since 2019 when we sponsored Texas Raptor Runs (BRR).
I will be out of the office between April 19th and May 8th.

We are sponsoring a new organization ran by Art @coachart called Coyote Offroad Adventures. Art has been a great customer of Freedom Motorsports. This might be a new business adventure for Art but he isn't new to Baja, he knows it well. I have ran with him in the past and I know we will be in good hands. Take a moment and check out: https://coyoteoffroadadventures.com

I also have the pleasure to take Chris @Carsten89 with me as my co-pilot and he also has been a great customer of Freedom Motorsports. From what I have been told, this will be Chris's first time in Baja and I am sure he will have a blast. He has really built up his GEN1 over the years and one day I see him taking his own Raptor to Baja, it's ready to go and looks killer.

As soon as we drive back, I am headed directly to Shelbyfest on Thursday as we are a sponsor for this event too. www.shelbyfest.net
Plan on entering in the Raptor with all the Baja dirt (don't even plan on cleaning it one bit) and the Shelby GT500 for the weekend show. Will be back on Monday the 8th.

If you need anything, please get with me before I take off and I will get you a sweet deal on what you might need. Remember TRR is just around the corner and Freedom Motorsports will be there too as a Sponsor.

Plan on posting pictures of the trips, so stay tuned!

Sorry folks for the delay on posting up pictures from the run. I have been working on fixing my raptor after the event. So let’s get started on some pictures.

Day 1: Cross through Tecate and hit dirt in less than 30 minutes. Went on a common trail that helped everyone get accustomed to the dirt, nothing too difficult. Didn’t get a lot of pictures, too busy driving. We stopped for some tacos and went out to a lake bed and then unto San Felipe.

Day 2: Drove a little ways on pavement and spotted along the road to take some pictures of our line up then went to the new coco’s corner to each lunch, tailgate style. Drove though a section with running water and stopped at the spring. Continued on to Bay of LA

Day 3: Hit dirt right away. Stopped at a beach for some quick relaxation and then to a ranch for lunch. After lunch as we went further down the trail, is when things went quickly south for me. Never really had any issues in Baja in the past but when I do it, I did it big.

Day 3: Stopped at the caves to see the cave paintings. I have climbed up to it in the past and with my fat ass, I knew I didn’t want to do it again. Just relaxed why everyone else went.
