ya i'm not sure but over here the hardest race has to be the 24hour ice race when it drops to -40*Celsius
Haven't done it yet just 6hs and those were tiring maby next year
i'm sure mx is tiring to you have to go all out for those i would assume just not an endurance race
and raptorjay you said it well any type of racing should challenge you

I have NEVER been in any weather that compares to -40deg, and I couldn't possibly imagine going outside in that weather much less racing in it. Ice racers are a breed of their own.
I think the lowest I've seen the temp is -5deg...thought that was about stupid too!!

Hell yeah!, The Baja 1000 is demanding. It's costs over three thousand dollars to run the damn thing. I know the entry fee alone is about $1,400.00 bucks. Now that's demanding![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]

Does anyone even know about the dakkar ralley? It IS the hardest race there is, it's like a fact. And for people that don't know what it is, it would make the baja 1000 look like a trip to the supermarket.....SERIOUSLY!!!

I do know in the Dakar Rally that you go thru almost every conceivable terrain and extreme temps, I also heard that a hi percentage do not finish the race due to machine failure.

Dakar is a tough race for the machine to survive, So many days racing. The terrain in Baja is worse. Trophy Trucks have 30 in. of travel for a reason. The Baja 1000 is not a stage race you do it in 1 day! Both are very tough races!
