	Team Autometer from Eastern Oklahoma County Tech Center finished with an average time of 19:28:20, and will travel to the PRI Show next month to compete for the national championship.

Hot Rodders of Tomorrow (HROT) just completed half of its Engine Challenge dual championship. Competing at the 2014 SEMA Show, the high schoolers in the Engine Challenge championship had the largest group of spectators at any Engine Challenge to date.

Team Autometer from Eastern Oklahoma County Tech Center set a new Engine Challenge record on their way to becoming one of the SEMA dual championship winners, completing a performance engine rebuild in 18:09. The average time of their three rebuilds was 19:28, giving them the first-place seed going into the national championship at the Performance Racing Industry (PRI) Trade Show, December 11–13, in Indianapolis.

Team Moroso from Thomas County Central High School in Georgia came in second with an average time of 21:15. Just seven seconds behind them was Team Hedman from Illinois’ Belvidere North High School. A total of 15 teams completed at the SEMA dual championship, including one all-female team. The Royal Purple ladies, also from Thomas County Central High School, came in fifth overall with a time of 26:17. This is the highest-place finish ever achieved by an all-female team.

Only the top two teams from the SEMA Show will go on to compete in the final four at the PRI dual championship. Starting Wednesday–Friday, December 10–12, the PRI Show will host the second half of the dual championship as another 14 teams compete in hopes of being one of the two finalists. The four winning teams will then compete in the national championship on Friday night at 5:00 p.m. and two more times on Saturday at 9:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. All three runs will be averaged together, and the team with the best averaged time will become the 2014 Hot Rodder of Tomorrow national champion.

Besides gaining valuable skills, learning teamwork and proving their ability to perform under pressure, each team competing in the Engine Challenge dual championship will also be awarded scholarships to top automotive and technical secondary schools.

	(From L-R): Andy McMillin, Jason Voss and Rob MacCachren drove to the overall and SCORE Trophy Truck victory last Friday at the 47th annual Tecate SCORE Baja 1000, which started in Ensenada and ended in La Paz.

Las Vegas’ Rob MacCachren, San Diego’s Andy McMillin and Jason Voss of Gilroy, California, overcame a brutally rugged 1,275-mile course, driving to the overall and SCORE Trophy Truck victory last Friday at the 47th annual Tecate SCORE Baja 1000.

The trio finished the physically grueling race from Ensenada to La Paz in 22 hours, 31 minutes and 27 seconds while averaging 56.64 mph in the No. 11 Rockstar Energy MacCachren Motorsports Ford F-150. The team blew by a field of 237 starters in cars, trucks, motorcycles and ATVs for a victory margin of nearly 29 minutes. The starting grid included 31 starters in the marquee SCORE Trophy Truck division for high-tech, 850hp unlimited production trucks. With 10 checkpoints along the way, it was the longest course in race history for the race in the 21 years it started in Ensenada and finished in La Paz.

Finishing second overall and second in SCORE Trophy Truck was the third-generation desert racing brother duo of Luke McMillin, El Cajon, California, and Dan McMillin, La Mesa, California, with a time of 23:00:08 (55.56 mph) in their new No. 83 Mark Racing Ford F-150.

Completing the SCORE Trophy Truck podium and finishing third overall was the team of Cameron Steele, San Clemente, California/Pat Dean, Las Vegas, who covered the distance in 23:41:18 at an average speed of 54.29 mph in the No. 16 Monster Energy Desert Assassins Chevy Silverado. A veteran racer, who has raced and won his class in several classes, it was Steele’s first podium finish in SCORE Trophy Truck.
