Taking It To The Desert: The Ford Bronco R

Dec 13, 2019

The test of a vehicle is by racing it.

In the case of the upcoming Ford Bronco, it would be the test of 1,000 miles of Baja California’s extraordinary terrain.

Ford Performance put a prototype spec off-road racer in the SCORE Baja 1000 called the Bronco R.

The purpose of putting the Bronco R out on the grueling desert and mountain ranges of Baja California is to prove the strength and durability of the upcoming Bronco’s architecture and powertrain. The Bronco R build for the SCORE series is a collaboration with Ford Performance and Geiser Performance of Phoenix, Arizona. Geiser is well known for crafting the greatest spec racer on the SCORE Off-Road racing circuit.

The new Bronco’s presence in Baja California marks the 50th anniversary of its only overall 4X4 win in the Baja 1000 back in 1969.

This entrant is piloted by defending Baja 1000 Trophy Truck champion Cameron Steele. Steele is no stranger to the deserts south of San Diego and Tijuana, as he is known as “Mr. Baja.”

In fact, Ford has been named the Official Truck and SUV of SCORE-International Off-Road Racing through the 2022 season. Ford will be the lead sponsor of SCORE’s 13-race season of the World Desert Challenge Series. Such events include the SCORE Baja 1000, SCORE Baja 400, SCORE Baja 500, and the San Felipe 250. The sponsorship will also include the Lucas Oil Off-Road Expo in Pomona, California.

In the Twin Ports area, we may not have a desert or some majestic mountains nearby. But, when the 2021 Ford Bronco arrives at Benna Ford sometime in 2020, you can take it into the snow, up on approved off-road tracks in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, and through a muddy field near you.

Are you ready for the new Bronco? Contact us and become one of the first in the Twin Ports area to own one!
