Episode 356 Don Higbee: "From the Desert to the Dealership: Racing on His Own Terms"

Don Higbee didn’t grow up chasing trophies he grew up chasing cattle. But somewhere between ranch work in Casper, Wyoming and lining up at GNCC and Baja races, he found a calling that’s lasted over two decades.

In this episode, Don takes us through his unexpected journey into off-road racing, including key breakthroughs like his runner-up finish at the 2017 Baja 500 and podium at the 2018 Baja 1000. We talk about what it’s like juggling family life, dealership ownership, and brutal travel schedules plus the little rituals and road stories that keep it all human.

Whether you're a racer, a fan, or someone who just loves a good story about grit and balance, Don's journey proves that you don’t need to be flashy to be legendary—you just need to keep showing up.
