Polaris RZR backed Jagged X Racing took the overall UTV win at the 50th anniversary of the Score Baja 1000 nearly 2 hours faster than second place finisher Justin Elenburg piloting a Can-Am Maverick X3. The Jagged X RZR XPTurbo-4 was controlled by Brandon Schueler, Mitch Guthrie and Matt Parks. Navigators were Jason Spiess, Pat Stone and Miles Martin. In the non turbo class, Dan Fresh beat the odds and finished way better than expected coming in 4th overall UTV only 4 minutes slower than the turbo duo of Mike Cafro and Jamie Kirkpatrick. Fresh also helped give Polaris a podium sweep in the non turbo class. Here are the rest of the top finishers in the turbo and non turbo classes.
