Talk:Baja 1000

message: OK, I stand by the removal of "hardest", but "longest" can be discussed, as it depends if you include rally raids such as the Dakar. Harald Hansen 17:32, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

message: Baha silt ought to have some explanation as huge traps of the finest powdery sand that can engulf entirely a motorcycle and stop in its tracks a four wheel vehicle. Esp as these traps can be 50-200 feet long -a distance long enough to eventurally slow a motorcycle or vehicle enough to stop it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 76.195.232.214 (talk) 11:30, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Baja silt is overrated. Go around it or keep the speed (and feet for bikes) up and it’s a non issue...uh sometimes. :) Just another entry in the long list of obstacles. Definitely could be worked into a course description though. --I already forgot 20:35, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Baha Silt

message: I reverted the last addition of external links as the first link was a list of terms that did not relate to the Baja 1000 and more towards 4-wheeled off-road vehicles in general. The second link was to a page that was a generalized description of some of the classes for off-road events but not that of the Baja 1000 specifically. As such, some of the rules and specifications may not match that of the Baja 1000 classes specifically. As with all links, the information from the linked page should be included in the article and only linked to if the information cannot be added (such as list of information, copyvio if used, etc.) but in this case, the information is not Baja 1000 specific and is some what of an unreferenced fan page on the classes. If I knew nothing about the Baja 1000 and its classes, I would click on the link thinking it was a detailed description off the classes for the 1000 even though it is not. I guess it’s a bit over analyzed on my part and I do get a bit over zealous on accuracy so if others would like to see the page linked to that’s fine by me as it doesn't appear to be link spam. --I already forgot 20:30, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

message: What does the "Additional Reading" entry
"Ensenada morgue guards killed by dozens of gunmen: body seized after fatal helicopter crash at Baja 1000." 
have to do with the race? If we had individual articles about each year, I could see helicopter crash being mentioned on the one for 2007. The linked article is not about the helicopter crash or the race, it's about something that happened afterwards. Please remove.

thread_title: Additional Reading

message: From where was the information in this article gathered? The only citation offered is in the "Overall Winners" section. Because a large portion of the article presents a history of the race, especially reporting the motivation for its renaming, relocating, and being sold between companies, it would be good to have a verifiable source for much of the information.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Viaarete (talk • contribs) 14:16, 22 May 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  BAJA 1000 Winners - correction 1977 

message: I propose merging the article SCORE International Baja 1000 about a video game based on Baja 1000 into the "In popular culture section" of this page. 
It can be briefly summarized so it doesn't take so much space. I doubt it's justified to have stand-alone article on the game, and having the same name as the event could confuse the search. --Alan Islas (talk) 12:19, 27 June 2020 (UTC)
