Career
After winning the 1973 Nevada State Motorcycle Championship as an eight-year-old, MacCachren, the son of an off-road racer, began riding dirt bikes in the hills around Las Vegas.
In 1982, he rode off-road in Southern Nevada Off-Road Enthusiasts (SNORE), earning the Driver of the Year Award and being named "Rookie of the Year" by the Nevada Motorsport Writers Association. In 1983, he was nominated for "Top Off-Road Driver" and "Computer of the Year" in the Nevada Sports Writers Association. He won six SNORE events in 1985 on his way to the season championship. He received the Triple Crown at the Silver Dust Racing Association in the same year.
MacCachren won his second SNORE championship in 1986. He started playing in SCORE International and was nominated for SCORE's Rookie of the Year award. MacCachren won his third SNORE title as well as winning Driver of the Year awards in SCORE International and High Desert Racing Association (HDRA). MacCachren competed in HDRA/SCORE in 1989, winning both the Class 7S division for light pickup trucks and the mini metal championship.
MacCachren took the 7S and mini metal classes again in 1991, and was selected for their Driver of the Year award by HDRA/SCORE. In 1994, he competed in the Mickey Thompson Entertainment Company's (MTEG) Grand National Sport Trucks Series for the final season. He was the first Desert Trophy Truck Champion for Venable Racing in the same season. He won the first Thunder Truck championship in 1995, bringing up the championship. He won the Governor's Cup at Crandon en route to winning the Class 4 season championship for 4-wheel-drive Trophy Trucks at SODA's nationally televised events. He also won the SNORE's Class 1 / 2 1600 buggy championship, set the qualifying record for CORR's Borg Warner World Championship event, and also won CORR's Winter Series Championship. CORR had replaced SODA as the country's top short course by that time. He won the BorgWarner World Championship race at Crandon in 1999.
MacCachren won four NASCAR SuperTruck Series exhibition races for Venable Racing in 1994, winning at Portland Speedway. He also competed in the Winston West Series at Tucson Raceway Park, finishing 14th.
MacCachren also won the first of three consecutive Governor's BorgWarner World Championship Shootout races in 2000. He appeared in SNORE, SCORE, and CORR the following year. He was the overall and class champion in SNORE. He has also been voted the Best in the Desert 7300 championship. He was the overall champion and the 1500 championship champion in SCORE, and he took home the class 1 / 2 — 1600 championship. He earned the Governor's Cup championship in Crandon's Spring Bush Run and the Pro-4 Borg Warner championship at Crandon's World Championships on Labor Day weekend en route to winning the 2002 Pro-4 championship. He was awarded the Toyota True Grit Award and the AARWBA (American Auto Writers and Broadcasters Association) for his efforts this season. The snort class championship and a Pro 1600 Class 1 / 2 championship followed his 2003 championship.
During the 2003 San Felipe 250, MacCachren and fellow Mexican driver Gus Vildósola claimed overall victory on board of the #4 Vildosola Racing Trophy Truck.
After winning the Laughlin Class Championships (1 & Class 121) and SCORE's Laughlin Leap Championship in 2004, MacCachren was nominated for the AARWBA award, with his pit crew helping him win the SCORE Laughlin Pit Crew Challenge Championship. After winning the Best in the Desert Class 7300 Championship in 2005, he received the AARWBA award.
After winning three of six events, MacCachren claimed his first overall SCORE championship in 2007. He took part in 12 events in two CORR classes in 2007, as well as four SCORE and BITD champions. Mark Post, the Baja 1000's fourth annual Baja 1000, and co-driver/team owner Mark Post teamed up with CORR driver Carl Renezeder to win by only six minutes. It was the first time a Trophy Truck won overall in the 13 years that the class has participated in the event for the first time in 13 years. Since his class victories between 1992 and 2004, he was his first overall champion in desert off-road racing's top event. MacCachren and Post became the first trophy truck drivers to compete in SCORE's overall season points championship with victory.
MacCachren competed in CORR in the Pro-2 and Pro Buggy divisions during the 2008 season, winning the season championship in both divisions. CORR retired at the end of the season, but he took part in the new Traxxas TORC Series in 2009. He returned to SNORE and wanted to win multiple races at the Mint 400 racing weekend to have a chance of winning the championship. MacCachren finished fourth in four of five races, missing one race from his TORC program, and winning the 1600 car class at the event in seventh place overall, behind trophy trucks and Class 1 cars.
MasterCraft Racing gave MacCachren the opportunity to pilot his own Jimco Trophy Truck as the overall SCORE International series's best-ever runner. MacCachren took the Trophy Truck class win and overall victory by 44 seconds at the 2011 San Felipe 250, a total time of 4:17.45 (58.7MPH). MacCachren won the San Felipe Challenge of Champions later this year. MacCachren's fourth place finish in the Baja 1000 and 11th place finish at the Baja 1000 allowed him to finish second in points for the season in the marquee Trophy Truck class and take home the coveted Toyota Iron Man Award.
MacCachren began the year by winning the Laughlin Desert Challenge on Sunday (the race was run on Saturday and Sunday as two separate points races). For the second year in a row, he captured the San Felipe 250.
MacCachren won the Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series (LOORRS) Pro 2 championship in 2010, winning a record 9 out of the 15 rounds of racing. MacCachren was also very popular in the competing TORC Pro 2WD series, where he finished second for the season. MacCachren placed second in season points in LOORRS and second in TORC in 2011 and 2012, as well as five wins in LOORRS and three in TORC. MacCachren won the $20,000 Chairman's Cup at Crandon in 2012, behind the MOPAR RAM Pro 2WD. He captured his 200th career appearance at Crandon during the track's second weekend (on the first weekend in September), the Sunday "World Championship" Pro 2 event.
MacCachren has signed a 2013 contract to compete in Robby Gordon's latest truck racing series, the Stadium Super Trucks, based on Mickey Thompson's Stadium appearance. He won the inaugural event at University of Phoenix Stadium in March and won another round in May. MacCachren won four victories on the season but finished second in the championship to Gordon. Due to a squabble with his LOORRS schedule, he missed the three Stadium Super Truck Championships in Costa Mesa, where he discovered himself competing in simultaneous battles for the Pro 2 and Pro 4 championships with Carl Renezeder. Renezeder would win by a wide margin in Pro 4, but MacCachren was able to win by a wide margin in Pro 2.
MacCachren made a name for themselves in LOORRS in 2014, finishing runner-up in both Pro 4 and Pro 2 categories. He co-droved the Baja 1000 overall truck/car winner, as well as Andy McMillan and Jason Voss in November. There were 31 entries in their Trophy Truck competition, and they received over 237 overall entries in 29 minutes. It was MacCachren's second overall victory and their seventh class victory in the competition.
In 2015 and 2016, he captured the Baja 1000 twice. He also won LOORRS Pro 2 titles back in 2015 and 2016, while in the Pro 4 class he placed runner-up in 2015 and third in 2016.
In his hometown of Las Vegas, he set a new SCORE San Felipe 250 and his first Best in the Desert Mint 400.
The 2018 season brought a second straight SCORE San Felipe 250 overall victory and a total victory at the 50th BFGoodrich Tires SCORE Baja 500.
