Having raced Baja a few times , on a motorcycle. I can have empathy for the driver. Stress level goes way up , when the course is lined up with crowds !
The fact that ya might kill or maim a few locals was only part of the stress factor. The bastards would set traps and place obstacles in the course just around the bend. Extra caution was wise...

Heh! Add a cow catcher to the front of those cars and each cow you bring home shaves 5 seconds off your time! That'll sort the crowds out right quick!
