 Class 11 | |||||||||||||||||
 Class had a rough day with all 3 entrants
completing 6 of the 10 laps.In the end, 1996 Champion
Victor Barajas stood victorious with an over 4 min. lead
on the 2nd place Horacio Pereya. Pereya & Barajas
heve exchanged victories throughout the season, leaving
them closely locked in a points battle going into the
Baja 1000. In 3rd was Eric Solozaro with a time of 2:20:47. Solzaro, who finished 7th in the 97 Baja 500, improved his point standing in the series on the strength of his finish. During the 97 season, Class 11 has been dominated by Mexican racers. The Baja events always result in a strong turnout from both sides of the border, but it looks like the Class 11 title will be once again staying in Baja.
