2022 NORRA Stroppe Classic Car Round-Up Details -
AGUA DULCE, CALIF. It’s finally here! We are making final preparations before the NORRA family comes to Ensenada for our annual family reunion, but wanted to clarify the details of next amazing Saturday’s Stroppe Classic Car Round-Up. Bringing off-road history to life lies at the heart of what makes the Yokohama NORRA Mexican 1000 presented by Method Race Wheels so special, and with the help of Marty Fiolka and Sol Saltzman we are taking our vintage four-wheel vehicles back into the spotlight where they belong.
This is going to be one of the most significant gatherings of off-road race vehicles in history! Please join us and help us stay organized by reviewing the following event overview.

ABOUT NORRA
Beginning in 2010, the National Off Road Racing Association (NORRA) began promoting a rebirth of the NORRA Mexican 1000 rally. The unique off-road rally was co-created by promoter Mike Pearlman to consist of special stages (unlimited speed timed stages in the dirt) linked together by controlled speed liaison / transit sections (highway). The one-of-a-kind, once-a-year, five-day rally includes vintage off-road vehicles and motorcycles, as well as modern pre-runners, trucks, buggies, UTVs, bikes and desert Rally Raid cars.
Pearlman’s late father Ed and others established the first running of the NORRA Mexican 1000 off-road rally in November of 1967, which eventually became internationally recognized and evolved into the Baja 1000 in the mid-1970’s.
NORRA enjoys corporate partnerships with Yokohama Tire, Method Race Wheels, South Point Hotel & Casino, McMillin Racing, Bilstein Shock Absorbers, STEEL-IT, Multitool USA, Satélite del Norte, Biltwell, Cerveceria Transpeninsular, PCI Race Radios, Schampa, Optima Batteries, K&N, Horsepower Ranch, Baja Bush Pilots, The Fab School, Mag7 Pits, the Off-Road Motorsports Hall of Fame (ORMHOF), B3KREATIV, and many more.
