Competing in the challenging Vintage Era 1982 & Earlier class, this South Dakota desert racer brings Midwest determination to the brutal Baja Peninsula. Behind the wheel of his classic Jeep Scrambler, Paule has tackled the legendary SCORE Baja 1000 with a dedicated crew including Shane Dahlquist, Joachim Schwiesow, Shad Dahlquist, and Brad Williams from the Rapid City area.
