MOSS BROTHERS AND BF GOODRICH CELEBRATE ANNIVERSARY IN BAJA
SACRAMENTO, CA - Six time SCORE Class 3 Baja 1000 champions, Don and Ken Moss are in Baja Mexico with their BF Goodrich ‘79 Ford Bronco to compete in this week’s 43rd Tecate SCORE Baja 1000 Off Road race. They are part of an elite group of 106 racers who have combined for 311 class wins in the oldest and most well known of all desert races. Only 11 racers of this group have more Baja 1000 class wins than the Moss Brothers, who have six. The Moss brothers have 37 Class 3 wins, 32 of which are in SCORE competition.
This is the Moss Brothers’ tenth season of SCORE competition, with seven Class 3 Championships, all of which have been on BF Goodrich tires. In 2010, BF Goodrich Tires is celebrating its 35th year in SCORE Baja racing. In addition to being the official tire of SCORE International for three and a half decades, BFG has been the tire of choice for 23 of the overall 4-wheel vehicle winners in the Tecate SCORE Baja 1000, including 23 of the last 24 years and a record-run of 20 straight from 1986 through 2005. The BFG 35th anniversary logo is based on the Moss Brothers’ Bronco.
This year’s 1061 mile course begins in Ensenada on Thursday, November 18 and finishes in La Paz, passing through 10 mandatory checkpoints. Teams will have 45 hours to complete the course. The all volunteer Black Bronco crew has come together from across the State of California, cashing in vacation time at work, to conquer the mexican desert and rise to the logistical and mechanical challenges that come with racing the SCORE Baja 1000. All entries are provided with GPS programs defining the course and all are required to utilize special data recording devices that plot the actual route and speeds each vehicle takes during this colossal race. Fans can follow the Moss
