As BJ Baldwin says in the video, "They don't make materials on this planet that will survive a 20 hour off road race." He goes on to state that he could easily break his truck in 10 or 15 minutes by driving his truck as hard as possible. Baldwin is a two time Baja 1000 winner and sadly those potential breaks hit him hard this year as his truck had computer issues and a transmission that went, forcing him to retire from the race.

Monster Energy's video shows you all aspects of the race. The beautiful views and the competition level as well as the dangers, such as night driving, where the drivers can't see what's coming up ahead or the fatigue causing them to think they saw things at triple-digit speeds. You also get to see the quick work the drivers' teams do at the remote pits.
