Wildomar, California.

The festival, to be held at the Tower Plaza Cinema Complex from September 17-21, 2008 in Temecula, California, is one of the most prestigious film festivals in the world. Filmmakers and Musicians from across America and around the globe have come to Temecula every September since 1995 to participate and enjoy in the celebration of the two most influential, most enduring, most entertaining art forms and commerce of: FILM AND MUSIC. Attendance has grown from 600 in 1995 to 14,000 in 2007. The film will premiere on the big screen at 5 PM on Saturday, September 20.

Members of The Racing For Life Offroad Team and Pinned TV filmmakers, Fred Helm, Director, and Mike Badami and Rob Robertson, Producers will host the special showing on the big screen for the general public. The official showing time and date will be announced shortly during the four-day festival.

In 1967, an idea for a desert race down the Baja Peninsula came together. Malcolm Smith and JN Roberts entered that first year, and against impossible odds rode a nearly stock Husqvarna to victory in the first ever Baja 1000. 40 years later, Malcolm and JN team up again, leading the Racing For Life Offroad Team in the 2007 Baja 1000 aboard a Husqvarna TC510...and things rarely go as planned in the Baja 1000.

You'll hear Malcolm and JN tell the stories of that first ever Baja 1000, (then called the Mexican 1000), and you'll ride along with the Racing For Life Offroad Team as they attempt the most grueling off road race in the world. You'll travel to Las Vegas and see both the original Husky and the Julia Lynn II, the Husqvarna TC510 ridden by Malcolm and JN auctioned off at the world's premiere vintage motorcycle auction. Catch a peek at the new Malcolm Smith Motorsports facility, JN's private ranch, and a visit to The El Oasis Orphanage in Baja. We talk with off road legends like Johnny Campbell, Sal Fish, John Barnes and Dick Hansen.

Malcolm Smith and JN Roberts have truly come Full Circle, a full four decades after the world's first Baja 1000.
