Mopar Competition 800 hp drag motor wins Baja 1000

[TrackAire]

Just got a press release from SEMA....3 weeks after being exhibited at the SEMA Show, the 800 hp V10 drag race motor wins in Class 8, driven by Kent Kroeker of Kroeker Off Road Engineering. They finished the 700 mile race in a little over 20 hours.

Congrats and a nice showing for the new V10!!

Cheers,
George

Here's a link to their site with the story: http://koreperformance.com/kore-racing-news/

They didn't mention making any mods, or work to the engine at all. It's amazing how an engine designed to run 1320ft. at a time wins at Baja!!

Why would they call it the Baja 1000 if it's only a 700 mile race.
I feel shorted by 300 miles. What a rip!

sounds like a pretty stout motor.

1000 km is 620 miles

May it should be the Baja 1127 for the 700 miles driven
