The unforgiving terrain of the Baja 1000 is the ultimate tough truck proving
ground, and this year, California Race and Rally will test the Ridgeline's
mettle in this grueling race. Prepped for the Pure Stock class, this Ridgeline
boasts modifications to enhance its durability, such as skid plates, heavy duty
cooling systems and engine mounts and custom King Racing shock absorbers. The
truck is modified to carry two extra wheels and a racing jack, an onboard air
tool system and a 26-gallon fuel cell. The race-prepped interior includes Beard
race seats, Crow 5-point safety harnesses and a custom roll cage that is integrated
into the Ridgeline's tough frame.
