PUSHING IT TO THE LIMIT




          The dust was settling, and the last can of beer was popped open on the dirt race
          course, when the announcement came that the unconfirmed winner of the 37th Score
          San Felipe 250 race in the Trophy Truck category was  ALAN AMPUDIA.




















          This Ensenada  racer, beat race favorites Luke McMillan and Bryze Menzes by about
          2 minutes. The official announcement was made Sunday morning by SCORE Presi-
          dent,  Abelardo Grijalva, after all the race data had been officially reviewed.
          Alan is part of the famous Ampudia family of Mexico’s Papas & Beer fame. He drove
          solo to power his remarkable No.10 Mason-built all-wheel drive Ford Raptor to lead
          the fifth largest number of starters and finishers in the race history. Alan finished in
          a penalty-free time of 4 hours, 2 minutes, 21 seconds. This was the first time in his
          career, to paint the finish line in green, white and red, with a win for Mexico.
