On November 19, 2004 Kore made history.

Kent Kroeker Driving home from the 2004 Baja 1000Kent Kroeker, President of Kroeker Off Road Engineering (KORE), raced a 2003 Dodge Ram 2500 4×4 in the Score “Stock Full” class.  Kent drove for 29 hours 23 minutes and 10 seconds, bringing the Dodge Ram across the finish line and directly to the podium.  This Dodge was the first Cummins-powered vehicle ever to finish the Baja 1000!

The next day, while others loaded their race vehicles on trailers for the journey back to California, Kent drove back in the street-legal Dodge.
