Green is back!




NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. -The Tecate SCORE Baja 1000, it is the longest point-to-point off-road race in the world, challenging the endurance of a racer's body and mind as they charge through the wilds of an untamed landscape, known to the world as "Baja." This year, a new team of open desert racing stalwarts have joined forces to form Team Blue C Wahoo's Monster Energy Kawasaki, and the group has one common goal in mind, win the Tecate SCORE Baja 1000.

Under the direction of former AMA Speedway Champion and Hall of Fame inductee, Bruce Penhall, who is widely known for his role as Officer Bruce Nelson on the popular television series "CHiP's," Team Blue C Wahoo's Monster Energy Kawasaki is led by three-time SCORE Baja 1000 champion, Robby Bell, who also brought the coveted 1X number plate to the team. Multiple AMA Hare and Hound Nationals champion and ISDE gold medalist, Destry Abbott, along with five-time Baja 1000 champion Steve Hengeveld and Penhall's sons, Ryan and Connor, are the foundation of the impressive cadre. All have chosen to ride the Kawasaki KX450F motorcycles as the brand makes its return to SCORE Baja 1000 competition.
