Mike Palmer showcased his determination and resilience in the 2018 SCORE Baja 500, where he piloted his #57 Chevy Silverado Trophy Truck to a hard-fought 21st place finish out of 29 starters in the grueling 542-mile desert classic. Racing alongside co-driver Mike Childress, Palmer demonstrated the tenacity that defines successful SCORE desert racing by completing the challenging course in 18:41:01, proving his ability to overcome the punishing terrain and mechanical challenges that eliminated eight other Trophy Truck competitors.
The Denver-based racer has established himself as a formidable presence in SCORE's premier Trophy Truck division, competing against legends like Rob MacCachren, the McMillin family, and Robby Gordon. Palmer's commitment to the sport is evident in his willingness to tackle Baja's most demanding race, where survival itself represents victory. His participation in the 50th BFGoodrich Tires SCORE Baja 500 placed him among an elite field of international competitors from 32 U.S. states and multiple countries, demonstrating his place within the global off-road racing community and his dedication to conquering one of motorsport's most challenging environments.
