Biography

Establishing himself as a formidable force in SCORE's Pro Stock UTV division, this 43-year-old Mexicali veteran has carved out an impressive championship legacy across Baja California's most challenging desert courses. His breakthrough 2022 season showcased elite-level consistency, capturing the SCORE Baja 500 class championship in Pro Stock UTV (NA & FI) while demonstrating remarkable endurance and tactical prowess throughout the grueling Ensenada desert race.

That same year, he secured a hard-fought second-place podium finish at the legendary SCORE Baja 1000, proving his mettle against the world's premier desert racing field in motorsport's most demanding test of man and machine. His ability to navigate the peninsula's treacherous terrain while maintaining competitive pace has earned respect throughout the international off-road community.

Building on this championship foundation, he claimed victory in the Pro Stock UTV category at the 2023 King Shocks SCORE San Felipe 250 Presented by Baja Vida, further cementing his reputation as one of the division's most consistent performers. His deep understanding of Baja's unique challenges, combined with methodical preparation and strategic racecraft, continues to position him among the sport's most accomplished competitors in the highly competitive UTV ranks.
