SCORE CR52 requires all race teams to utilize satellite equipment at the 2023 Baja 1000. We strongly recommend satellite phones but realize this may be cumbersome on a motorcycle. If you are using a text device, it's very important that you understand how much info we need as we can't quickly ask you questions.
To reach the team on race day, call or Text 562-279-0700. If you are texting, please be sure to include this important information:
- Who is texting (This is 441x race/chase)
- Injured person name and if they are a racer, crew or spectator
- Extent of injuries. Do they need their team? Ambulance? Helicopter?
- Injured person vehicle # and class or desc of vehicle.
- What race mile are you at (or lat/long if device sends it)
- Who is staying to provide communication updates and their contact info if it is no longer you.
- Time message was sent (It may take time for the text to send)
This seems like a lot of information, but this is why carrying a sat phone is important. For those of you carrying a text device only, you need to send us a very detailed report so we don't allocate emergency resources away from more urgent emergencies.
If reporting a DNF, please give us your vehicle #, RM out and any other details for our notes.
