Enthusiasts of desert racing witnessed a truly remarkable achievement at the recent SCORE Baja 500, as the Australian team of Toby Price and Paul Weel piloted their #46 Trophy Truck to an emphatic overall four-wheel victory. This win marks a significant milestone, underscoring the increasing international reach and competitive depth within the sport.

Price, a multi-time Dakar Rally champion in the motorcycle category, has steadily been making his presence felt in the Trophy Truck ranks. His transition from two wheels to four has been nothing short of impressive, showcasing his exceptional off-road acumen and adaptability. Partnering with Paul Weel, a seasoned competitor in his own right, the team executed a near-flawless race strategy across the challenging Baja terrain.

The Baja 500 is renowned for its brutal course, testing not only vehicle reliability but also driver endurance and navigation skills. The 2024 edition was no exception, featuring a diverse mix of high-speed sections, technical rock gardens, and treacherous silt beds. To emerge victorious against a field packed with established American Trophy Truck legends speaks volumes about the preparation, engineering, and sheer driving talent of the Price/Weel effort.

Their victory sends a clear message to the established order in SCORE International racing: the competition is global, and the pursuit of the checkered flag is more intense than ever. This performance will undoubtedly fuel further interest from international competitors and continue to elevate the profile of desert racing on the world stage. Apex Racing extends its congratulations to Toby Price, Paul Weel, and their entire team for this monumental Baja 500 triumph.
