Biography

Dominating the 2025 SCORE season with championship-caliber consistency, this veteran Trophy Truck competitor has captured multiple class victories including wins at the 2025 BFGoodrich SCORE Baja 500 and 2025 King Shocks 38th SCORE San Felipe 250. The 56-year-old San Clemente driver's recent success builds upon a distinguished career that includes conquering the legendary peninsula with a 2018 SCORE Baja 1000 class championship in Trophy Truck competition.

Racing runs deep in the family bloodline, with his father Mark Steele's passion for Baja serving as the foundation for a multi-generational legacy. Beginning as a navigator in 1982, he learned the craft alongside legends like Johnny Johnson and Roy Allen, eventually witnessing his father's 1985 SCORE Baja 500 Class 5/1600 victory. His own Trophy Truck career reached its pinnacle with the 2018 overall victory at the Lucerna SCORE 22nd Desert Challenge, demonstrating the speed and reliability that has made him a consistent threat on the peninsula.

Beyond his driving achievements, he serves as a respected voice in motorsports as a television commentator for BCII TV, sharing his extensive knowledge and passion for desert racing with audiences worldwide.

Cameron Steele talks about the "crazy calm" he and the Desert Assassins team experienced in winning the 2018 51st SCORE Baja 1000 race. Created by DS Media LLC for SCORE International. Race footage provided by BCII. https://score-international.com
