Slam Life Racing Wins San Felipe 250 T he Slam Life Racing team ex- tended Honda's dominance in Baja, April 2-6, by winning the King Shocks 38th SCORE San Felipe 250 overall in the bikes, thanks to the teamwork of Tyler Lynn, Ryan Surratt and Carter Klein. The San Felipe 250 is the first round of the 2025 SCORE World Desert Championship. Lynn, Klein and Surratt com - pleted the 250.06-mile race- course in four hours, 49 minutes, and three seconds at an average speed of 51.89 miles per hour aboard the SLR No. 7x Honda CRF450X. This was Honda's 25th overall victory in the SCORE San Felipe 250, with a significant lead over its closest competitor, Kawasaki, which has seven wins in what is known as the "SCORE Baby Baja," part of the Baja Triple Crown, alongside the Baja 1000 and Baja 500. "It started off good," said Klein. "Tyler started and rode well through the dust and got us into first physical place. He handed me the bike clean. I rode it to race mile 210 and handed it to Ryan and he brought it home. We had a little tip-over, but noth - ing major; I got right up. I had a few rock sections that were pretty fun. The day went super smooth, and we are stoked." Arturo Salas Junior of Mexico finished second overall and in the Pro Moto Unlimited class, aboard the Hero Racing No. 1x Honda CRF450X. Salas had the support of Shane Logan and Ciaran Naran. "We prepared a lot for this race," Salas said. "We are here. We are happy to be at the finish line, all safe and sound. First things first. Unfortunately, we got second place, but we are happy to be here at the line. We are not going to give up. We are for sure going to try to get the rest of the wins this year."
