What's ahead for 303

Vic Curl says that coming off the mountain into La Paz, 303 will hit "the waterfall" a rocky place and some silt- that will be slow going. But, after checkpoint 10, it's pretty smooth sailing with mostly dirt and gravel roads and surface streets in La Paz. 303 is at rm 1026 going about 38 mph. 1151 is at rm969 going about 20 mph. 1151 won't cross the finish within the allotted 45 hours of the Baja 1000 race period. But, as an exhibition entry, it may not matter- the goal may be to just finish. Vic says that fact that the Suzuki is doing this kind of mileage in this kind of terrain is in fact pretty impressive.
