Building his reputation as a formidable desert racing competitor, this Chula Vista native has established himself as a force to be reckoned with in SCORE's demanding off-road championship series. His breakthrough moment came in 2020 when he captured the Class 10 championship at the grueling SCORE Baja 500, conquering the challenging Ensenada desert terrain that has humbled countless racers over the decades.
Competing in one of desert racing's most competitive classes, he demonstrated the skill, preparation, and mental fortitude required to excel in SCORE's legendary events. The Baja 500 victory showcased his ability to navigate the unforgiving Baja California peninsula while maintaining the precise driving and strategic thinking that separates champions from finishers in this demanding motorsport.
His success comes during an era when SCORE International continues to attract world-class talent from NASCAR, IndyCar, Formula 1, and other premier racing series, all seeking to test themselves against the unique challenges of Baja desert racing. As SCORE celebrated its 50th anniversary season in 2023, competitors like him represent the dedication and passion that have made the organization the premier destination for off-road motorsports, carrying forward the legacy of legendary desert racing into its next chapter.
The rough, tight, and technical course of the 3rd SCORE Baja 400 Presented by VP Racing fuels was especially hard on the Class 1 buggies. Six of the best teams competed and all had to drive slower than their usual pace to complete the course, but not without additional vehicle problems along the way. Since the Class 1 competitors decided among themselves not to participate in qualifying, they agreed the starting order for their class would be in the order in which they entered the race. This put 2021 Class Champion Cody Parkhouse in the No. 100 Jimco buggy off the starting line first, followed by the No. 121 Jefferies Buggy of Damen Jefferies, and the No 138. Jimco Buggy of Kyle Quinn. Brad Wilson in the No. 153 Jimco Buggy would start fourth, followed by Brendan Gaughan in the No. 162 HMS Buggy and Cody Reid in the No. 168 Alumi Craft Buggy. Read More
Class 10 competition in this race was also extremely tough. This class has some of the toughest and most experienced buggy racers who continue to win races every season. SCORE fans knew the class could be won by any of the top competitors including 2021 Champion Ben Hagle, Bruce Yee, and Chase Warren. The course would also prove to be very challenging for these racers as well, as nearly half of the field of 20 competitors were taken out in one way or another. Read More
