JEFF PROCTORHonda Team Principal / Driver
Jeff Proctor grew up surfing in Southern California and like most American kids played traditional stick and ball sports as well. The allure of racing was sparked from his competitive nature, but it wasn’t until starting his first business, an action sports clothing brand in his college dorm room, that Proctor was able to buy his first motocross bike and begin his lifelong journey in off-road racing.
Today, Jeff has embarked on his most ambitious chapter of his race career – Partnering with American Honda, HPD-Honda Performance Development and Honda Powersports to create an Off-Road Racing Factory Mega Team. Jeff will not only pilot a custom Honda unlimited Twin Turbo off-road race vehicle but also direct and oversee the team’s entire race operation, including a two car Honda Talon Side by Side team in 2020. Jeff will lead his team and Honda to the podium, bringing more high-level race teams to the exciting sport of off-road racing.

JORDAN PELLEGRINOTalon Driver / Ultra 4 Specialist
Jordan Pellegrino grew up in Simi Valley, CA, with a passion for the desert. Starting out on dirt bike at age 3, and learning how to read terrain on his 50cc bike at an early age has helped him over the years grow from bike to 4-wheel drive. In 2013, at age 15 his desire to race turned to the Every Man Challenge class and he built a car for the 2014 EMC race at King of the Hammers. He finished 4th in class that year. Striving for a podium finish that year, Jordan won several races and podiumed multiple times in the 4500 class since his 2014 racing debut. 2017 was pivotal for Jordan as every race he entered he podiumed with multiple wins! In 2018 he graduated from The Fab School and started working as a Fabricator at GenRight Off Road. 2018 was a pivotal year in Jordan's racing career as he moved up classes in Ultra4 and Jordan took over the GenRight Mantis race car his dad had podiumed King of the Hammers, the 4485 was becoming #98. After the 2018 King of the Hammers race, Jordan set sights on a new car. A full independent suspension 4-wheel drive car: a Triton Engineering FIS chassis that he would finish with the help of his friends and marketing partner s. 2019 the new FIS "Unicorn " debuted at King Of The Hammers. There is a huge learning curve to a FISnew car build, especially since only one other racer has attempted to build one. In the 4 races he has competed in the Unicorn, two he has finished, and one was top 10.
