Baja Teams:

We would like to officially invite you to Winter Baja 2014! It will take place on February 22 on the campus of Michigan Tech in Houghton, MI. We will again be using our transponder system that is that is compatible with the AMB transponders used in SAE competition.  Winter Baja is a great chance to test your cars for 2014 competitions or simply get drive time in an environment not found at many other events!

 

For the latest updates and media, be sure to check out the Blizzard Baja Facebook page:

Highlights from the 2013 race can be seen here:

Registration can be done on event registration site:

We have many exciting changes.  I hope to see you there.  If you have any questions please send them to me (mghartl@mtu.edu) or Beth (bmwojey@mtu.edu)

The track construction continues. It is going to be much better than last year, we have a giant snowblower that has blown off the track, we are currently watering to form a good base, then we will have the groomer go over it. There will be no ruts that your car will get sucked into, and the track has plenty of room for passing.
The track is also going to be very fast this year, like super fast.
 
We still have spots available in registration, don't miss out on what is sure to be a great event!

Here is the layout for the track this year. The groomer is going to make it wider, and we still have to add jumps.

If you guys traveling up to Winter Baja haven't heard, there is a huge storm that will be hitting us from Thursday night through Friday night. It might not be a bad idea to leave tomorrow and beat the storm.

They are calling for 45-55 MPH winds and 9-13" of snow.

Hold on... the OP said Feb 22, but everywhere else it says Feb 21. Which is it?

21st... Keep in mind this is the thread for last year's event.  The big snowstorm ended up canceling the event.
