Polaris-Supported Racer Mitch Guthrie Jr. and his RZR Pro R Factory Win UTV Overall

MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- In a stunning display of skill, stamina, and precision, Polaris-supported racer,聽Mitch Guthrie Jr. raced his way to victory in the RZR Pro R Factory at the legendary 2025 Las Vegas to Reno, taking home the overall UTV win and finishing second overall among all four-wheeled vehicles.

Temperatures soared above 100掳贵 as racers pushed speeds well over 110 mph across hundreds of miles of graded gravel roads, dry lake beds, and rugged mountain terrain. His total time of 8:19:14 edged out Can-Am庐's Cody Bradbury by a 9-second margin, capping off one of the closest and most dramatic finishes in recent history.

"The Vegas to Reno course is one of the toughest in the world where our drivers are battling extreme heat, high speeds, brutal terrain, but the RZR Pro R Factory handled it all with incredible confidence and durability," said Alex Scheuerell, Director of Off-Road Motorsports, Polaris. "Mitch's impressive ability to navigate such a demanding course was key to the win and a huge validation of the performance and resilience we've built into this machine. The grit our entire team and Polaris-supported racers consistently demonstrate never ceases to impress. It's a clear reflection of the Polaris spirit."

By mile 100, Guthrie was locked in a three-vehicle dogfight while Cayden MacCachren played a longer strategy, hanging back outside the top 10. By race mile 300, MacCachren's game of cat and mouse started to take shape. Heading into the mountains, he started flexing the power and nimbleness of the RZR Pro R Factory.

By mile 450, only 18 seconds separated Bradbury, Guthrie, and MacCachren on corrected time. MacCachren would then physically pass the field and build a 14-second corrected lead with just 25 miles to go. Two miles from the finish, MacCachren overcame a challenge with rapid repairs, crossing the line and exemplifying the true grit of the Polaris team.

Guthrie pushed his RZR Pro R Factory to the limit over the final miles with the vehicle ultimately proving its superiority, overtaking the Can-Am^庐聽and defeating Bradbury to take the overall UTV win by just nine seconds. The win marks a significant moment for Polaris as the聽RZR Pro R Factory machine once again proved its elite performance and durability, tackling the unforgiving terrain of the 2025 Vegas to Reno race with unmatched composure and capability. From deep silt beds to jagged rock gardens and long stretches of high-speed desert, the machine absorbed punishing impacts while maintaining precise control. The RZR Pro R Factory gave Mitch Guthrie Jr. the confidence to charge through technical sections that forced many competitors to back off.

"We took the win in the RZR Factory Pro R, and it was a great race with tight battles up front dicing it up, with just seconds separating us at times," said Mitch Guthrie Jr. "The RZR Pro R Factory performed flawlessly with zero issues, which gave me the confidence to keep pushing from start to finish."

Next, the Polaris RZR Factory Racing team will trade the rugged terrain of the Sierra Nevadas going back to the deserts of Baja as they will set their eyes on the trophy for the Baja 400, strategically placing for a spot in the prestigious Baja 1000.
