Polaris RZR Factory Racing Sweeps the Baja 400—Third Straight Win Caps Statement Run

By SXS Nation | September 15, 2025 — Minneapolis, MN

Polaris RZR Factory Racing just turned the 2025 Baja 400 into a masterclass, sweeping the UTV Overall podium for the second consecutive SCORE race and locking in a third straight Baja 400 victory. Brock Heger led the charge in his RZR Pro R Factory, followed by teammates Cayden MacCachren and Max Eddy Jr., underscoring the team’s depth and the Pro R Factory’s desert-tuned dominance.

Race Recap

Starting positions were set off Baja 500 results, giving Heger the clean air off the line. MacCachren applied pressure early, briefly taking both the physical and corrected lead around Race Mile 211 before Heger answered back and controlled the final 200 miles to the finish for his third consecutive SCORE UTV overall win—and fourth in the last four SCORE events.

From sixth on the road, Max Eddy Jr. drove a composed, mistake-free race, climbing to third by RM 211 and sealing the sweep with a 9:36:42 finish time. Justin Morgan executed a back-to-front strategy, starting last and carving through the field for ninth overall in class—an exclamation point on a day where every strategy seemed to click for Polaris.

Why It Matters

Back-to-Back Podium Sweeps: Two straight SCORE events with a 1-2-3 Polaris lockout.
Three-Peat at the Baja 400: A rare streak that cements the team’s grip on the Pro UTV Open class.
Vehicle to Beat: The RZR Pro R Factory continues to set the benchmark for durability, handling, and sustained pace across Baja’s brutal mix of silt, rock, whoops, and high-speed desert.

What They Said

“Wins like this are why we race. Sweeping the UTV Overall podium not once, but twice, is more than we could’ve asked for… The RZR Pro R Factory isn’t just proving itself; it’s redefining what’s possible in desert racing.”
— Alex Scheuerell, Director of Off-Road Motorsports, Polaris

“The RZR Pro R Factory continues to amaze me with its performance and durability… Everyone comes together to put us in a position to succeed, and it shows when we’re able to win in such commanding fashion and finish 1-2-3 overall.”
— Brock Heger
