Jeff Bader

Jeff Bader is an American racing driver with experience in both sports car and off-road racing. He has quickly made a name for himself in the racing world. In 2019, competing in his first full season of Pirelli GT4 America competition for his USRD team, Bader secured a couple of SprintX West Am podiums alongside team co-owner Casey Dennis. Bader's journey into racing began with go-karts during his college years, transitioning to Spec Miata racing in Northern California, followed by motorcycle racing with the American Federation of Motorcycles (AFM) on a Ducati. After a decade-long hiatus, he returned to the sport through track days and eventually Pirelli GT4 America SprintX West series.

In 2019, Bader also participated in the SCORE International Baja 1000. Bader took part in Brenthel Industries' Arrive and Drive program, which allowed him to focus on racing while the team handled preparation and logistics. In his first race in 2019, the BITD Parker 425, he went on to finish every mile of every race in the Best In The Desert series and earned the Rookie of the Year title.

Bader achieved a significant milestone in 2020 by winning the SCORE Baja 1000 in the Trophy Truck Spec class with Dan Fresh. They completed the grueling course in 21 hours, 44 minutes, and 54.699 seconds, finishing 8th overall. Bader drove the Brenthel Industries-built Trophy Truck Spec from Race Mile 420 to the finish, while Fresh drove the initial leg. His other notable SCORE International results include a 3rd place in the 2019 Baja 1000, and 1st in the 2020 Baja 1000 (both in Trophy Truck Spec).
