FJ wins 2nd Place Baja 1000 on NBC 12/10 3:00 central

Found this on the IH8MUD site.

Apparently there is a 1hr televised show on the Baja 1000 airing tomorrow in this area (Birmingham, AL) at 3pm on NBC (check your local listings) where a FJ Cruiser wins 2nd place. It was only 43 seconds behind the winner of its class.

Think it would be cool to see the FJ in action on the big screen.

Here is the story: WhoWon.com is The Internet Source for Motorsports News and Information

Yes I got an e-mail notification from The Baja saying that the time switched to 4:00 EST.

Yes, thanks - switching on TV now - hope NBC-HD is carrying it

Edit: yes, on HD channel but looks like 720p. Haven't seen an FJ yet.
