2009 Primm 300

With the SCORE Trophy-Trucks, the marquee SCORE racing division capturing five of the top 10 finishing positions while Class 1 claiming three and Class 10 the other two spots the desert race insider can imagine the hard racing on the 276 miles total – 4 laps, 69-mile course. Earning his ninth career SCORE Trophy-Truck race win and his second in this race, Robby Gordon’s adjusted time in his No. 77 Team Gordon Chevy CK1500 over the challenging 276-mile race was 4 hours, 49 minutes and 18 seconds, averaging 57.24 miles per hour while covering the four laps.
Robby Gordon’s victory announcement came after SCORE officials reviewed the data in the ‘black boxes’ that each entry is required to use during the race and which are provided by Southern California’s International Racing Consultants into the early-morning hours on Sunday, and issued time penalties to numerous racers for speeding on a short, paved section of the official race course.

Hometown racer Rob MacCachren of Las Vegas, covered the course in his new ride, the No. 20 MasterCraft Racing Jimco Chevy Silverado in an adjusted time of 4:50:20. Using his home-desert knowledge to his benefit, MacCachren nearly pulled off the victory Saturday. MacCachren started 21st in SCORE Trophy-Truck, and finished second physically behind Gordon and after the data tracking review fell just over a minute short of the win.
Keeping the SCORE Trophy Truck class from sweeping the podium for the second straight year was the All German Motorsports Class 1 BMW-powered Jimco open-wheel desert race car driven by Germany’s Armin Schwarz and Martin Christensen of Escondido, Calif. With Schwarz starting and driving the first half of the race and Christensen bringing their car across the finish line in third place overall with an adjusted time of 5:00:08, averaging 55.18 mph.
