Bugs, Legends and Icons at Mack Johnson’s Vintage Car Round Up

Famous desert racer and notorious adonis Mack Johnson will return to the NORRA 500 contingency this year with another of Mack’s Vintage Car Round Ups, this time celebrating the Vocho, or Baja Bug. Many of Mack’s biggest supporters will be there with some of the coolest and most historic Vochos in off-road history. Mack himself will be signing autographs and engaging in his usual disreputable behavior. Don’t miss a chance to witness a legend of the sport and celebrate these incredible little vehicles that changed the face of off-road racing!

The round up showcases iconic vehicles from the Pioneer, Legends, Challenger and Vintage Eras of off road racing history. From 12pm-1pm Off Road Motorsports Hall of Famer Curt LeDuc, our Grand Marshal, will be at the round up holding a meet and greet with fans. Be sure to stop by and take in the history of off road racing with living legends and epic vehicles on display.

NORRA combines fierce competition with everything else that makes Baja racing so special. If you love to compete off road and enjoy the food, culture and spectacular scenery of Baja, you have to join us at an event. No other racing series has a more diverse field of cars, trucks, buggies and UTV’s competing. Entries span the entire history of over 50 years of offroad racing. In order to accommodate such a unique collection of race vehicles, the overall classification structure is determined by the era of racing the cars competed in. That way, competitors can be matched against similar cars that all have the same technology. NORRA also has the Meyers Manx Safari Expedition which is for modified street legal vehicles. The Safari Expedition is a guided tour that follows parts of the race course, but also takes in some points of interest, and great food along the way.

Everything you need to know about NORRA’s Baja Mexican 1000, and NORRA 500 can be found at www.norra.com. Go to the site and find out for yourself why NORRA has exploded in popularity. You can experience the same wonder and sense of achievement those early thrill seekers sought in the 1960’s today when you join NORRA in Baja. Don’t miss out on the fun and fierce competition.
