MINNEAPOLIS, MN – April 8, 2025 – (Motor Sports NewsWire) – On Saturday, the 2025 SCORE Championship kicked off at the 38th San Felipe 250, where the RZR Factory Racing team continued its dominance in UTV racing. Brock Heger claimed the UTV Overall and UTV Pro Open win—his sixth consecutive victory in as many starts. Max Eddy Jr. powered through the demanding terrain to secure third place in the UTV Pro Open class, while the Polaris RZR Pro R Factory race vehicle once again proved itself as the most capable and competitive UTV in the field. RZR Factory Racers Brock Heger and Max Eddy Jr. captured first and third respectively, while Polaris-supported racers Branden Sims, Wayne Matlock, and Ethan Groom secured second, fourth, and fifth, sweeping the top five positions in the UTV Pro Open class. Between the Polaris RZR Pro R and the race-ready RZR Pro R Factory, the two platforms secured nine of the top ten positions in the UTV Pro Open class, a testament to their strength, reliability, and performance. Building on this foundation, the RZR Racing division developed the RZR Pro R Factory with meticulously engineered, race-enhanced components and cutting-edge technology designed for elite competition.

The starting order was determined by random draw, placing Heger third, Justin Morgan ninth, Cayden MacCachren 16th, and Eddy Jr. 20th off the line. By race mile 35, the RZR Factory Racing team had already surged to the front of the pack, showcasing elite driving and vehicle performance. Morgan held the lead on corrected time over Heger, with MacCachren charging into third and Eddy Jr. hot on his heels in fourth. Through the next 65 miles, Morgan maintained his lead while his teammates skillfully navigated the brutal Baja terrain in pursuit.

By race mile 140, Heger and MacCachren were battling for first place, with Eddy Jr. pushing through the washes and whoops with surgical precision. Over the final 110 miles, RZR Factory Racing drivers demonstrated the unmatched power, strength, and control of the RZR Pro R Factory platform—dominating what many called the most grueling San Felipe course to date.

By mile 200, Heger held the physical lead while MacCachren maintained a 3:34 advantage on corrected time. In the final 50 miles, Heger unleashed the full potential of the RZR Pro R Factory, overtaking MacCachren for the win. Eddy Jr. continued to charge, using his experience to make up significant ground and secure his spot on the podium.

“It feels incredible to kick off the 2025 SCORE season with an overall win—and to make it six consecutive wins in six starts is pretty surreal,” said Heger. “This San Felipe course was absolutely brutal, and I had my fair share of highs and lows out there. But the Polaris RZR Pro R Factory delivered exactly what I needed, exactly when I needed it. I’m so grateful to have such an amazing team and crew behind me. The Polaris RZR Pro R is an absolute beast—it has the power, control, and confidence to push through even the roughest terrain.”

“Today was incredibly meaningful. Watching our RZR Factory Racing team take on the San Felipe terrain and come away with first overall is a powerful reflection of the strength and dedication behind this program,” said Alex Scheuerell, RZR Factory Racing Technical Director. “It’s incredibly rewarding to see the team’s relentless work pay off—especially with Heger now earning his sixth consecutive win, a true testament to both his talent and the reliability of our platform. Huge thanks to the entire RZR engineering team for delivering such a solid platform, and to the Polaris race engineers and SCi group for building and prepping these exceptional race machines.”

RZR Factory Racing is gearing up for the legendary Baja 500, taking place June 4–8, with sights set on another championship run. Cayden MacCachren returns to defend his overall UTV title, while Brock Heger and the rest of the team aim to extend Polaris’ winning legacy in the SCORE series and continue pushing the limits of performance and endurance.
