Mexicalli, BC - #11X
Racing out of Mexicali, Carlos Silva continues to establish himself as one of SCORE's most consistent performers in the Sportsman Moto division. Silva claimed a commanding victory at the recent SCORE Baja 500, where he and his team aboard their Honda CRF450X dominated the Sportsman Moto class with a winning time of 13:20:19, averaging 35.99 mph across the brutal 480-mile course.
The 41-year-old desert racing veteran has built an impressive resume in SCORE competition, capturing multiple SCORE Baja 500 class championships in Sportsman Moto with victories in 2020 and 2018. Silva's racing prowess extends beyond the 500, as he's also earned multiple SCORE Baja 1000 overall championships with victories in 2020 and 2019, conquering the world's most prestigious desert race.
Silva's winning formula combines meticulous preparation with a deep understanding of Baja's unforgiving terrain. Racing alongside experienced teammates including Oswaldo Moncada, Joe Leal, and Hector Cardenas, Silva has developed a reputation for consistent finishes and strategic racing. His ability to navigate the technical sections while maintaining competitive pace has made him a respected competitor in the SCORE paddock and a serious threat for podium finishes in every race he enters.
The close racing between the 212x team of Carlos Silva and the 284x team of Shane Shorno was another big match-up that was settled at this year’s SCORE Baja 1000. Silva crossed the finish line first to win the class along with co-riders Oswaldo Moncada, Javier Salazar, Joel Leal, Hector Cardenas, and Phillip Herrera. Read More
