 Our fifth installment of the RAD RACER REPORT is here...

Let's talk about DAVID PAYNE! David is a long time racer, landowner & supporter of the MORE series. He currently competes in our +50 A/B class, is the owner of the fan favorite property KNOBBY CREEK, and he does something really cool off of the dirtbike track, too! In February 2018, David set out on what he thought would be just a fun weekend with friends—renting Baja Challenge Cars to explore the desert. That trip changed everything. During the adventure, David met Roger Norman, owner of SCORE International, the legendary promoter of the Baja races. Roger told him, “You know you can race these?” Those words sparked a passion that quickly shifted from a weekend thrill to a lifelong pursuit. By April of the same year, David was on the starting line of his first Baja race—and not only did he compete, he took 1st place in the Baja Challenge Car class. That victory left him wanting more. Over the years, David worked his way up through the ranks—racing everything from Baja Challenge Cars to Razors, Trophy Lite (shout out to Steve Leivan for being David’s co-driver while racing the Trophy Lite), Trophy Truck Spec, and now a 4WD Mason Trophy Truck. Today, he races in the 50+ Legends Class, where the competition is as fierce as the terrain. His best finish to date came in June 2025, taking 2nd place in class and 6th overall out of more than 200 vehicles. Every race is held on the rugged Baja Peninsula, Mexico, where endurance, focus, and adrenaline collide. As David puts it: “I love it for the adrenaline & focus it takes (like dirt bikes)… plus 1,100 horsepower and 26”+ of suspension!” You can follow along with Payne Racing on Instagram @payne.racing61l to keep up with the action. The team’s next big races are the Baja 400 September 10–14 and the Baja 1000 November 10–16. Congratulations David on all your accomplishments & we can’t wait to see you out there racing, on 2 wheels & on 4! Let's hear it for DAVID PAYNE!

Let's talk about STEVE SMITH! Steve is a long time racer, sponsor & supporter of all things MORE related. He currently competes in our C+50 class and is involved in many cool projects off the track, too. Steve started collecting vintage motocross bikes around the year 2000. Since he used to race motocross in the 1970s, he began collecting old Bultacos, Ossa’s, Maico’s, CZ‘s and other vintage motocross bikes. Then his collection started to expand into other unusual and rare motorcycles from Poland, Russia, Switzerland, Hungary, and other European manufacturers. Steve was drawn to unique bikes that existed before 1975, all the way back to the beginning of motorcycling around 1900. When his personal collection got up to around 80 motorcycles, he decided to build a museum in order to share it with the public. The Moto Museum, located in St. Louis, opened its doors in 2007 & continues to draw in motorcycling enthusiasts today. Highlights include a 1951 Imme R100 with its single-sided fork and swingarm, and the iconic ČZ 125—each piece offering a glimpse into the artistry and innovation of motorcycle history. Steve’s favorite motorcycle in the collection is a 1927 Bohmerland. It is very rare, made in Czechoslovakia, and seats three in a row. The Moto Museum is free of charge & Steve hopes you will all visit the museum and enjoy this amazing collection. Congratulations to Steve & many thanks to him for giving back to the motorcycle community by sharing his passion & collection with all of us. Give it up for STEVE SMITH!

Let's talk about JACOB LARIMER! Jacob began his Scouting journey as a Tiger Cub Scout in first grade when he was six years old. He was also one of the first founders of Pack 621. In 2nd grade, he advanced to Wolf Scout and his mom Julie became his Den Leader. The following year, Jacob went to Bear Scout Day Camp, where his love of camping and the outdoors began to flourish. Jacob’s dedication to Scouts continued as he completed Webelos, the Arrow of Light and transitioned from Cub Scouts to Boy Scouts. Jacob dove right in to complete the requirements of Scout, then onto Tenderfoot in 6th grade. The following year, he earned the rank of Second Class and kept working hard to then advance to First Class. My middle school, many boys drop out of Scouts due to other activities, but Jacob continued his journey to achieve Star and finally Life Scout. He’s had many fun adventures through the ranks of Scouting, but decided to add the challenging quest of Philmont Scout Ranch in the summer of 2023, where he served as Crew Head Leader for the 621 Scouts and Leaders. Upon returning, Jacob was determined to complete his final rank of EAGLE SCOUT & that he did. He managed the crew for his Eagle project, which was the installation of a concrete slab for dumpsters including a privacy fence. For years, Jacob has served in his community by helping with Harvester’s Food Drives, feeding the needy, and picking up trash in Peculiar, MO. Congratulations Jacob on all your accomplishments & we can’t wait to see you out there racing this year!
