In addition to the Ford Bronco R and Industry shows’ coverage, this month’s issue also looks at the new SCG Boot and the legendary Baja Bugs in desert racing.
WELCOME
“Our November issue is unique in that there is neither a race preview nor a race review but it is packed full of great reads with thankfulness and gratefulness for another amazing SCORE World Desert Championship season,” said Jim Ryan, SCORE Marketing and Sales Director and publisher of the SCORE Journal. “While we do have news items on both the new Ford Bronco R racing prototype and the new SCG Boot that both raced in this year’s SCORE Baja 1000, this issue includes a number of other special interest stories and product release pieces.”
“Our November SCORE Journal also introduces in detail our new SCORE Pro UTV stock class, one of the most affordable classes in our sport.”

INSIDE VOL. 5, NO. 11
Vol. 5, No. 11 of the SCORE Journal is once again filled with numerous interesting worth-reading features, stories, captivating images, exciting videos and several news items.
This edition is anchored around the debut of two new vehicles at this year’s SCORE Baja 1000—the Ford Bronco R racing prototype and theSCG Boot.
One of the lead features is on the Hammerhead, the latest Class 1 unlimited open-wheel race car from Robbie Pierce’s Jimco Racing Products. Another lead is on SCORE’s new Pro UTV Stock class, an affordable way to go racing.
There is another breakout piece on Baja Bugs as one of the most enduring vehicles in SCORE racing history and how they continue to inspire and challenge Baja purists.
As an extension of the package on Baja Bugs is another detailed package on the Bilstein Bug. Driven by Doug and his brother Don Robertson, they reached the peak of their racing careers during the height of SCORE’s Class 5 racing era in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
Also in this month’s lineup is extensive coverage of the Sand Sports Show in Costa Mesa, Calif. and another on SCORE’s massive participation in the annual Lucas Oil Off-Road Expo at the Fairplex in Pomona, Calif.
