MATLOCK MASTERPIECE
Matlock, 40, whose wife Kristen finish third in points with two race wins this season in the Pro UTV NA (Naturally Aspirated) class, won the first and last races of the year as well and finished second in both the SCORE Baja 500 and the SCORE Desert Challenge to earn his 434 total season points to break the tie with MacCachren in the hunt for the coveted SCORE Overall season point championship as well as winning his Pro UTV FI (Forced Induction) class.
A champion SCORE quad racer earlier in his career, Matlock drove solo in the No. 2971 Polaris RZR XP Turbo UTV in his amazing championship season. While earning his class title, Matlock edged out MacCachren by just nine points to earn his first SCORE Overall season point crown.
Matlock’s Pro UTV FI season title was also his sixth career SCORE season class point title.
To climb the ladder to the pinnacle of the sport, Matlock had to first overcome 23 starters in his class in the season-opening 32nd SCORE San Felipe 250 and cap the season by defeating a field of 29 starters in the 51st SCORE Baja 1000 in his Pro UTV FI class. He also finished second out of 35 starters in the 50th BFGoodrich Tires SCORE Baja 500 and second out of 19 starters in the Lucerna Hotels & Resorts Tijuana 22nd SCORE Desert Challenge in the middle of the four-race 2018 SCORE World Desert Championship.
MAC ATTACK
With 312 career desert, short-course and off-road stadium victories, Off-Road Motorsports Hall of Famer MacCachren increased his overall lead in career SCORE Trophy Truck race wins to 17 with his two victories in the 2018 SCORE World Desert Championship.
The masterful MacCachren opened the 2018 campaign by winning both the 32nd SCORE San Felipe 250 and the 50th BFGoodrich Tires SCORE Baja 500. MacCachren, 53, overcame a race-record 36 starters in San Felipe and 33 more starters in the SCORE Baja 500 in the class for high-tech, 950 horsepower unlimited custom trucks for the victories in his race-proven No. 11 Rockstar MacCachren Motorsports Ford F-150 SCORE Trophy Truck built by Geiser Bros. of Phoenix. Using his one substitute driver for the SCORE Desert Challenge in Tijuana, MacCachren was credited with a second-place finish courtesy of his sub Justin B. Smith, also of Las Vegas.
MacCachren kept the heat on in the hunt for the overall season point title and his third place finish in SCORE Trophy Truck (36 starters) earned him his ninth career SCORE season class point championship including his third in SCORE Trophy Truck (1994, 2007, 2018).
In the 45th-year in the history of the World’s Foremost Desert Racing Organization, the featured SCORE Trophy Truck division celebrated its 25th season of competition since former SCORE owner Sal Fish introduced the unique class to the motorsports world in 1994.
