Center
Line, Mich. -
The 22nd Annual SCORE San Felipe
250 will take place at the quaint
fishing village of San Felipe,
located on the East side of
the Baja California peninsula
along the tranquil waters of
the Sea of Cortez. With over
250 entries from 20 states and
six countries expected to compete,
the competition will undoubtedly
be fierce. The landmark San
Felipe Arches will once again
mark the start of the 231-mile
long loop course. The course
features the famous “Zoo
Road” spectator area,
as well massive washes with
silt, jagged rocks, and narrow
passes between rock walls. Considered
to be one of the roughest races
of the year, the attrition rate
is expected to be high, especially
considering the ten hour time
limit.
G&R Racing
will be campaigning both the
#38 trophy truck of Garron Cadiente
as well as the #39 trophy truck
of Ron Whitton. Garron Cadiente
previously won the ultra rough
SCORE San Felipe 250 in 2006,
which was the last time this
course was run as a part of
the SCORE series. Garron’s
teammate Ron Whitton also finished
in the top of the field, with
a 4th overall and a 3rd in trophy
trucks.
Cadiente had
this to say about the upcoming
title defense, “We do
really well at short rough races.
My driving style and our trucks
suit this course. I have a good
start position, so I plan on
getting out front and leading
the race. We made a couple of
changes including a new Toyo
tire package that has allowed
us to increase the speed of
our trucks. ”
Whittion stated,
“This is one of those
races that anything can happen!
A lot of vehicles will break.
Even though I am starting in
the back, I feel confident.
I have a fresh engine and a
well prepped truck. We will
see you at the finish line!”
