Biography

Building on his recent triumph at the 2024 BFGoodrich SCORE Baja 1000 with a commanding class victory in Sportsman Truck-Unltd Ltd, David Pryor continues to establish himself as one of SCORE's most consistent performers. The Encinitas-based racer has turned the world's premier desert race into his personal proving ground, capturing multiple Baja 1000 class championships in 2024 and 2022.

Pryor's success stems from his methodical approach to the grueling 1,000-mile test through Baja California's unforgiving terrain. His ability to navigate the technical challenges that claim so many competitors – from the rock-strewn mountain sections to the high-speed desert washes – has made him a formidable force in the Sportsman Truck division. The demanding nature of SCORE competition, where mechanical failures and course hazards eliminate the majority of starters, makes his consistent podium finishes all the more impressive.

Beyond his driving prowess, Pryor represents the blue-collar spirit of SCORE racing, where privateers compete against well-funded factory teams through preparation, determination, and intimate knowledge of Baja's challenges. His repeat victories demonstrate not just speed, but the reliability and race craft essential for conquering desert racing's ultimate test.
