Friday August 5th, 2011 marked the tech party at Gardunos Restaurant In Albuquerque, New Mexico for the New Mexico 200 Off Road Race.

The New Mexico Off Road League put together a great event and not only did the tech safety checks on the vehicles before the race on August 6th, but also gave the spectators and racers alike a chance to check out all of the vehicles that will be racing in the New Mexico 200. continue reading »

Groups like the New Mexico Off Road League and the New Mexico Off-Road Racing Series have been putting together a plethora of well organized, safe, large desert racing events on the sand dunes, back roads, and mud beds of New Mexico.

The size and payout of many of these events rivals many of the big name desert races held nationally and the number of racers and spectators alike is growing daily as these events get further recognition.  Recently the New Mexico Off-Road Racing Series has put on the Gallup National Off-Road Race in Gallup, New Mexico and the New Mexico Off Road League has put on many  large events including the Cinco de Baja 150 just outside of Albuquerque.

While many may think that this is an adult only sport, you’d be surprised to find out that a good number of the racers are actually kids with very supportive parents!  On that note, we would like to introduce you to 8 year old Dillon Carlson out of Rio Rancho, New Mexico. continue reading »
