Biography

A veteran of Baja's unforgiving desert terrain, this Mexicali-based racer has carved out an impressive legacy in SCORE International competition over nearly two decades. His breakthrough came with a commanding victory in the 1999 SCORE Baja 1000 SCORE Lites division, establishing him as a force to be reckoned with in the competitive off-road racing scene.

The skilled desert racer returned to the winner's circle in spectacular fashion during the 2005 SCORE Baja 500, capturing the SCORE Lites class victory alongside co-driver Ricardo Malo. This triumph demonstrated his ability to master both of Baja's premier events, showcasing the consistency and tactical racing acumen that defines championship-caliber competitors.

Operating primarily in the highly competitive SCORE Lites division, he has consistently challenged the sport's elite drivers across some of desert racing's most demanding courses. His racing career spans the golden era of SCORE competition, battling wheel-to-wheel with legends like Larry Roeseler, Jerry Penhall, and the McMillin family dynasty.

From the technical rock sections of the Baja 500 to the grueling endurance test of the Baja 1000, this accomplished racer continues to represent the passionate spirit of Mexican desert racing, bringing local knowledge and fierce determination to every starting line.
