Kickoff! - 2006 SCORE Off Road Season
We saw the Red Bull TT spinning the Toyo donuts and thought "Robby Gordon," but it was Andy McMillin behind the wheel both days. Andy has proven his skills behind the wheel of father Scott McMillin's Class 1 buggy, and he recently teamed up with Robby Gordon for the 2006 SCORE season. At 18 years, Andy is the youngest driver ever to race a Trophy Truck in the SCORE series. At the Primedia desert cleanup at the Stoddard Wells OHV area a few weeks later, we got a chance to ask Andy about the differences between Class 1 and TT from the driver's point of view. "There's a definite learning curve," Andy revealed. "The Trophy Truck has 250 more horsepower than the Class 1 and 3 feet of rear suspension travel compared to the 2 feet of rear travel in the Class 1. It's like comparing a Cadillac to a bike." With McMillin and Gordon alternating in the driver's seat, number 83 is a threat to win anywhere it shows up to race. View Related Article
