OFF ROAD NIGHTS Canceled The COVID-19 Pandemic is forcing the cancellation of the 2020 Off-Road Nights Dirt Lifestyle Expo. The event, which was supposed to take place at Del Mar Fairgrounds, had been moved from March to September. The event was unable to happen with all of the required health directives. California continues to ban large gatherings. “We are extremely disappointed to have to move our popular ORN Expo in Del Mar to next year,” stated event producer Rat Sult.
BFGoodrich Suspends Pit Support for 2020 BFGoodrich has made the difficult decision to suspend pit support for the upcoming 500. The ongoing travel restrictions and the COVID-19 crisis led to the company’s decision. BFGoodrich has been involved with SCORE races in Baja for 40 years. Support services affected include complimentary pit services and BFG radio relays. The company also will not have a presence at the Baja 500. BFG says they want to keep their employees safe and healthy and not risk their families getting sick. BFGoodrich will continue to monitor the situation and has not yet committed to providing services at the Baja 1000. DIRTSPORTSWORLD.COM | 5
