The Baja Rally is a navigation-based rally raid event—like the Dakar Rally—which will be held in the Mexican state of Baja California from September 27 to October 3, 2026. I'm sure you know this, given you already clicked the link. But this year, the rally organizers are putting up a big cash prize for the racer who finishes atop the podium in the Rally Pro category.
A cash purse of $15,000 USD (said to increase to a maximum of $30,000) will be shared among the top racers at this year’s event, with $10,000 reserved for the first-place finisher in the Rally Pro class.
Additionally, the top finishing amateur racer—those competing in either Rally 1, Rookie, Senior or the Malle Moto category—have the chance to win a ChampADV-built 450 Rally Trophy Bike based on the wildly successful Kove 450 Rally. Hell to the yeah.
