Following MacCachren across the line were Luke McMillin for second and Ryan Arciero for third to complete the powered by VP podium sweep. The SCORE World Desert Championship’s second round, held this past weekend in Ensenada, Mexico, saw 321 starters from 32 states and 14 countries take part in the 50th running of the prestigious event.
“The first Baja 500 was run just a few years before VP got its start,” said Bruce Hendel, VP’s Vice President, North America Sales – Race Fuels & Consumer Products. “It’s known around the world as one of the toughest events in off-road racing, and we’re thrilled to have fueled not just Rob’s dominating win but also the great finishes by Luke, Ryan, and their teams.
“We also would like to thank all of the drivers who took on the Baja 500 powered by VP Racing Fuels,” added Hendel.
