2025 AORC Champ Returns to Finke

Alice Springs, NT—After dominating the 2025 Motorsport Australia Off Road Championship (AORC) with co-driver Paul Currie, Travis Robinson secured the title after the final Kalgoorlie event last October. His brother Beau finished the season in runner-up. It was an amazing way to end the 2025 season and after taking the crown, the elder Robinson mulled riding off into the sunset.

Back for more. The pull of desert racing is strong and the Robinson clan have a multigenerational relationship with Finke. Though Robinson will miss the AORC Pooncarie opener, the Albins STX-equipped 813 will be ready to do battle at the 50th anniversary of the Finke Desert Challenge. Both Travis's title winning 813 truck and Beau's 413 runner-up vehicle feature the Albins STX.
