SCORE Trophy

class at the 54th
BFGoodrich Tires SCORE
Baja 1000 Presented by 4
Wheel Parts, Elijah Kiger
immediately proved he
and his co-driver Sean
Bogdan were just as
competitive as the best
racers in this class. "The
competition in this class
is very tough," said Kiger.
"At any race, there are ten
teams that can win it, but
we started the season to
see what SCORE has to
offer, and we proved we
are just as competitive."
To SCORE fans, Kiger
seemingly came out
of nowhere to win the
biggest SCORE Baja
1000 race in four years,
but he and his family are
no strangers to SCORE
racing. "My dad raced
side-by-sides and won in
2013, then I finally got to
drive in 2019 and liked it."
Kiger's father, Scott, raced
in the Pro UTV NA class
with Mark Holz and won
