The duo claimed the SCORE Baja 1000 win for the second year in a row. For Luke, the win is his third in a row. Starting second behind leader Bryce Menzies, it was a game of patience and smart driving. Late into the afternoon, the Menzies truck had a transmission failure. That immediately ended any hopes of winning the Baja 1000 for Menzies and his second driver Andy McMillin who is Luke\u2019s cousin. Behind Luke was his brother Dan. Both Trophy trucks held their positions well into the night finishing one and two on the podium. In addition to the Baja 1000 win, Luke is also the season Trophy Truck class champion.\r\n\r\n\"\"\r\n\r\n\"\" \"\"\r\n\r\n\u201cToday is really, really special for the entire team for quite a few reasons. Today is our third SCORE Baja 1000 in a row in the No. 83 SCORE Trophy Truck. That\u2019s unbelievable. Only two other people in the history of the SCORE Baja 1000 have done that \u2013 Rob MacCachren and Larry Ragland \u2013 two legends I have looked up to my entire life,\u201d said Luke McMillin.\r\n\r\n\"\"\r\n\r\nGustavo Vildolsola took home a win in the SCORE Trophy Truck Legends class. Kyle Quinn put the Wilson Class 1 on the podium and Elijah Kiger secured a win in the Trophy Spec class.\r\n\r\n\"\" \"\"\r\n\r\n\"\"\r\n\r\nThe other big story of the weekend was in the moto class. Winning again was the SLR team of Mark Samuels, Justin Morgan and Kendall Norman. The trio finished the 828-mile course in 18 hours and 51 minutes. Samuels himself has a total of seven Baja victories.","excerpt":"

I struggled in the beginning, and also at round 2 in Arizona, in a technical section. After that race, I realized I really needed to focus on the technical stuff. My speed is fine when the courses are more open like motocross, but I needed to make improvements in the off-road stuff. I was stoked at this last round, because they had a pretty good technical Pro section, and I was one of the only ones to hit it clean every lap.\u201d\r\n\r\n\"\"\r\n\r\nSLR team owner Mark Samuels says LaFountaine will move up the 450 class in 2022.
