Carrera Panamericana
La Carrera Panamericana (1950-1954) "The Mexican Road Race," was one of the most famous events in auto racing history, attracting the world's greatest drivers. It was canceled in 1955 because of the cost and concerns about safety.
In 1988 the event was revived as a stage rally on closed public highways and for thirty years has offered both professional and amateur drivers an opportunity to experience the thrills and challenges of the original Pan- Am.
Today it is unique in the world—racing against the clock at high speed on public highways, mostly through the mountains of central Mexico for a week.
