The Big Car Race!

This was a very exciting car race held in the area, competitors come from the US and Mainland Mexico as well as some local talent.  Our cleaning lady's husband came in third in the car race!  He would have won but had an electrical problem somewhere out in the desert that took him some time to fix.  Even so he came in third so that's pretty good.  The cars (and bikes) left from the hotel downtown on the beach road, up and over the highway and then off into the desert for about 4 hours or more before returning down one of the arroyos and back into town, finishing at the hotel. 

This is the website for the race:

Be sure to watch the video of the race through the desert - the route is barely marked and is very rough!
