HONOR ROLL Created by then SCORE owner Sal Fish in 1994, SCORE Trophy Truck is the marquee racing division in the sport. It features high-tech, 950-horsepower unlimited custom trucks. Off-Road Motorsports Hall of Famer MacCachren, 54, is the defending SCORE Overall and SCORE Trophy Truck season point champion and he pilots the No. 11 Ford F-150 (Geiser-built). Still considered a ‘youngster’ because of his age and looks, Andy McMillin, 32, a third generation desert racer from San Diego’s iconic McMillin racing family, won the first two races of this year to lead the 2019 SCORE Overall and SCORE Trophy Truck points. In this week’s inaugural race he will debut his new Mason-built All-wheel drive No. 31 Chevy Silverado. He now has 11 career all-time SCORE Trophy Truck race wins which ties him for second all-time in class history. Andy McMillin and his father Scott are two of just nine racers who are winners of the SCORE Triple Crown of Baja having won the SCORE San Felipe 250, the SCORE Baja 500 and the SCORE Baja 1000. Andy McMillin won three of his SCORE Trophy Truck races with his father Scott, two with MacCachren and one with Gordon. The Gordon win was his first in SCORE Trophy Truck back in 2006, when he was just 19 years old. Both driving Ford F-150 SCORE Trophy Trucks built by their own Herbst/Smith Fabrication in Huntington Beach, Calif., brothers Tim Herbst, 56, and Troy Herbst, 53, will be among the favorites in the marquee SCORE racing division. Tim Herbst will drive the No. 19 Monster Energy Ford F-150 (Herbst-Smith) while Troy will be behind the wheel of the near-identical No. 54 Monster Energy Ford F-150 (Herbst-Smith). Troy’s second driver will be Las Vegas’ Pat Dean, 50, who won the 2018 SCORE Baja 1000 with Cameron Steele. Terrible Herbst Motorsports, founded by late family patriarch and champion desert racer Jerry Herbst, has enjoyed nearly 150 SCORE race wins between Mr. Herbst, oldest brother Ed Herbst, Tim Herbst and Troy Herbst. Ed and Tim Herbst combined for four season SCORE Trophy Truck point championships while Troy Herbst has won seven SCORE season point championships in the unlimited Class 1. Originally from SoCal, second-generation desert racer Robby Gordon, 50, Charlottesville, N.C., has raced in many forms of motorsports from IndyCar to NASCAR to the Dakar Rally to off-road stadium racing, but has never left his desert-racing roots. He races in the marquee SCORE Trophy Truck division where he has earned a career 11 race wins in SCORE Trophy Truck, which has him tied for second with brothers Ed Herbst/Tim Herbst, Andy McMillin and Larry Ragland. Gordon drives the No. 77 Chevy Silverado (Custom). Baldwin, 40, who along with Ed and Tim Herbst is the only four-time SCORE Trophy Truck season point champion, drives the No. 97 Monster Energy Baldwin Racing Toyota Tundra (ID) and his second driver will be short-course racing star Todd LeDuc, 40, Peoria, Ariz. Vildosola Jr, is another second-gen SCORE Trophy Truck superstar and he is the only Mexican national who has won the SCORE Baja Triple Crown in the featured racing division and one of only nine racers who has ever accomplished the feat of winning the overall in SCORE San Felipe 250, the SCORE Baja 500 and the SCORE Baja 1000. With six career SCORE Trophy Truck race wins, Vildosola Jr, 37, of Mexicali, Mexico, is finishing a new Vildosola Racing truck and is currently 28th in season points in his No. 21 Vildosola Racing Ford F-150 (Vildosola). Las Vegas’ Bryce Menzies, 32, has five career SCORE Trophy Truck race wins including two in 2011 when he was selected the SCORE Rookie of the Year while winning the SCORE Overall and SCORE Trophy Truck point championship. Also competing in a variety of international rallies, Menzies drives the No. 7 Ford Raptor (Huseman). He is currently tied for fourth in the 2019 SCORE Trophy Truck season point standings. One of RPM Racing’s ‘Young Guns’ is Lopez, 24, Tecate, Mexico.  Apdaly won the SCORE Trophy Truck season point title three consecutive years (2015-17) in the No. 9 Geiser-built Chevy Rally Truck and he has two career SCORE Trophy Truck race wins. He is currently 16th in the 2019 points in his class. TV action sports announcer and another member of the Off-Road Motorsports Hall of Fame, Cameron Steele, 51, San Clemente, Calif., who won the last two races of the 2018 season, drives the No. 16 Monster Energy Desert Assassins Ford Raptor (Geiser). Steele is currently seventh in the SCORE Trophy Truck season points, just three points behind a three-way tie for fourth place. With three career SCORE Trophy Truck race wins, Arciero, 46, another second-generation desert racer whose family lineage includes IndyCar racing as well, drives the No. 32 Ford F-150 (Herbst-Smith). He is currently 12th in 2019 SCORE Trophy Truck season point standings out of 47 total starters. THE CHALLENGERS The list of challengers to go up against the SCORE Trophy Truck all-time race winners and season point champions is long and very capable and they are led by Andy McMillin’s two cousins. All third generation desert racers from San Diego, Andy McMillin’s cousins Luke McMillin, 26 and his brother Dan McMillin, 31, are currently second and third in SCORE season points in the featured SCORE Trophy Truck division. Luke McMillin drives the No. 83 Ford F-150 (Racer-built) and his new second driver for this race will be Off-Road Motorsports Hall of Famer Larry Roeseler, 62, Imperial, Calif. Dan McMillin, who will have Las Vegas’ Justin B. Smith, 35,  as his second driver for this race, drives the No. 23 Ford F-150 (Racer). One of the most decorated desert racers of all time on both a motorcycle and in four-wheel vehicles, Roeseler has three career SCORE Trophy Truck race wins. A second generation desert racer, Justin Lofton, 33, Brawley, Calif., has returned to his desert racing roots after spending several years racing stock cars where he won the 2009 ARCA point championship in his second season and also won a NASCAR Truck race before returning to the desert in 2013. He won this year’s Mint 400 in Las Vegas and drives the No. 41 Ford Raptor (Jimco). AMA and Off-Road Motorsports Hall of Famer Ricky Johnson, 55, Trabuco Canyon, Calif. and prominent Ohio businessman and sports car racing champion Larry Connor, 69, of Miamisburg, Ohio, will race together to challenge for the top spot on the podium. The pair drives the No. 6 Team C Racing Chevy Silverado (Mason). Mexico’s Alan Ampudia, and his brothers Aaron Ampudia and Rodrigo Ampudia, all from Ensenada, are tied for fourth in this year’s season points and will share the driving in their No. 10 Ford Raptor (ID). Second-generation desert racers and twin brothers from Rancho Santa Fe, Calif., Brett Sourapas and Christian Sourapas, 23, are making their SCORE debut with their own team in their No. 88 Ford Raptor (Geiser). Their third driver for this race will be former SCORE motorcycle champion Ricky Brabec, 28, Hesperia, Calif. They have also drawn the first starting position in the race. MAIN COURSE The race features a course, finalized by SCORE President/Race Director Jose A. Grijalva of 400 miles. After the first 19.6 miles which will be used in both directions for the race, the course runs in a clockwise direction.

The three physical checkpoints are located at Santa Catarina (race-mile 96.91), Llano Colorado (rm 230.15) and Santo Tomas (rm 321.94).

The course is another jewel reflecting the stark beauty of Baja California.
