BAJA, Calif. -- No sooner had Locos Mocos, the extreme location pit crew, announced that they'd be running a taco stand next to the 2009 Baja 1000 race course to aid kids with cancer then race-oriented businesses and race teams began sending in big donations and helping the cause. MasterCraft Safety, Dion & Sons, Inc., Aeromedevac Air Ambulance, BajaBound Mexican Insurance, Balboa Ambulance, Mr. D's Painting, Missing Link Motorsports, Off Road Warehouse, Noah Ostanik, Memo Sagastume, Dave Simpsons "No Bad Days" Racing, Steve Sullivan Excavating, Tony Tellier - El Chinero, Unique Lighting Systems, Chris Wilson Racing, West Australian Desert Racing Team and more have all generously given to help generate money for the Castro-Limon Foundation for Baja kids with cancer.

According to the Tijuana-based Castro-Limon Foundation, cancer is the second biggest cause of death for children in Mexico, especially kids between ages of 5 and 14 years old. For the little ones who are orphans or have little money, it's a bleak situation. But the Castro-Limon Foundation is there to help.

During the race, November 20-21, racers, spectators, crews, everyone is invited to come to this unique taco stand near Race Mile 395 just off Highway 3 between San Matias and San Felipe. Just follow the signs at the side of the road. Tacos will be served and donations will be accepted - with all proceeds benefiting the Castro-Limon Foundation.

Locos Mocos, founded in 1997, is a voluntary pit crew helping racers in the Baja desert races. They've helped hundreds of racers make it to the finish line without ever charging anyone for anything. They "fix stuff free". This special project is their way of giving back to the wonderful people of Baja California who host the famous Baja 1000, 500 and 250 desert races year after year.
