BY DAN SANCHEZ
s
CORE moto legend
and Off-Road
Motorsports Hall of
Famer, Tim Morton,
has been selected
as Grand Marshal for the 6th
SCORE Baja 400 race. Morton's
racing career began at age 16
when he raced at the SCORE
Baja 1000 in 1983. Since then,
he has earned seven SCORE
Baja 1000 wins, seven SCORE
Baja 500 wins, and five SCORE
San Felipe 250 wins. He also
has four SCORE Pro Points
Championships and one
Overall Motorcycle Points
Championship, all of which
make him one of the most
respected riders when it comes
to SCORE Baja racing.
His success throughout
his career has led him to be
the go-to guy with the right
amount of knowledge and
experience. In 1997 he and his
wife Jennifer began mentoring
racers, leading to their Baja
Bound Adventure business.
It started a second career for
Morton in which factory teams
like JCR Honda and others,
would ask him to take along an
up-and-coming rider to "test"
before bringing them in.
