The 50-year-old racer conquered the grueling 1,000-mile peninsula course in his Dunrite-built machine, showcasing the experience and determination that has defined his SCORE career.

His 2023 Baja 1000 championship represents the culmination of years competing in the demanding SCORE Lites division, where Volkswagen-powered single and two-seat vehicles battle through some of the most challenging off-road conditions on the planet.
