SCORE Baja 1000

Trophy Trucks at race mile 45 from the 2009 SCORE Baja 1000. Filmed by Chad Ragland on November 20, 2009 in Baja Mexico. The 672.85-mile-long Baja 1000 race is over, and 328 starters were boiled down to just a handful of winners in various classes. The premier events were taken by Andy and Scott McMillin in the trophy truck category, in a Chevrolet Silverado Geisser. Andy won the race three years ago as a Robby Gordon’s co-driver, but this year beat the NASCAR pilot by three places. Check this cool video made by Chad Ragland and see some of the lines the TT guys taking.
