LEGENDS
JIM O'NEAL
J
im O'Neal bought his first dirt bike way back in 1962.
But it wasn't until 1981 when he ran his first SCORE
Baja 1000 – and was hooked for life! Over the past
35 years, his record speaks for itself. 15 Class Wins in
the San Felipe 250, 16 Class Wins in the Baja 500 and
11 Class Wins in the Baja 1000! This year's 2015 Bud
Light SCORE Baja 500 marked Jim's 105th SCORE race
– and of those, he has finished 96% of them!! In this new
exclusive interview, Jim talks about his love of Baja as the
"last frontier" of speed, and his early experiences racing
at night with cactus that seemingly 'waved' at him! Today,
Jim still rides every week – and 3 to 4 times a week when
he's preparing to race! Still going, still racing, still winning
– this is LEGENDS featuring the incomparable Jim O'Neal.
