EDITORIAL SCORE JOURNAL 3 DAN SANCHEZ EDITOR WHAT A TIME TO BE IN SCORE BY DAN SANCHEZ, EDITOR This first race of the 2025 season, the King Shocks 38th SCORE San Felipe 250, showcased an exciting line-up of racing that lay ahead for SCORE racers and fans. Some of the major highlights you'll read about here is that the race brought out one of the largest fields of UTV racers competing in this growing class. Team Polaris took the seven spots in the SCORE Pro UTV Open class, and a win in the SCORE Pro UTV N/A class. Can-Am took the top 10 spots in the SCORE Pro UTV Forced Induction Class, and the top three spots in the SCORE Pro Sock Class. In the Pro Moto Unlimited Class, we're seeing the next generation of young riders take control of the class and showcase a higher-level of riding skill that is taking moto off-road racing to the next level with their speed and consistency. We also saw the beginnings of the SCORE 2WD Trophy Truck Class that brought out 17 teams that included veteran drivers that added to the class's appeal. The SCORE Trophy Truck Class also continues to awe and inspire both fans and racers with incredible speeds and all-out paces that is also more competitive than ever. Simply watching the race during the SCORE Livestream was incredible, with in-camera views that allowed you to ride along with Alan Ampudia, Luke McMillin, Tavo Vildosola, and many others. With such a fantastic field of racers and vehicles, we tried to get as in-depth as we could with racer interviews, photos, videos, and more. This sets-up a great season and the next race, the BFGoodrich Tires 57th SCORE Baja 500 in June.
