Nissan Frontier off-road concept enters NORRA 500 in Baja

A largely stock Nissan Frontier is taking on Baja's deserts in this year's NORRA 500 race.

Nissan is taking the Frontier off-road racing. The automaker has unveiled a Frontier off-road concept that's running this weekend in the NORRA 500 race in Mexico.

Built in partnership with Forsberg Racing, the race team started by successful drifter Chris Forsberg, the mid-size pickup truck will compete in a stock-vehicle class. It still features some modifications for its desert-racing duties, though. These include a lift kit and high-performance suspension kit from Nissan's Nismo performance division, 17-inch beadlock wheels with Yokohama Geolandar M/T G003 tires, rock sliders, and off-road lights.

The NORRA 500 takes competitors from Ensenada across the Baja to San Felipe, and then back again to Ensenada. Nissan has plenty of history in this part of the world. Nissan Hardbody pickups raced and won the legendary Baja 1000 in the 1980s. Nissan recently launched, which runs Oct. 31-Nov. 3 in Las Vegas. Nissan will have other concept vehicles on display, with full reveals coming closer to the show's opening.
