HDRA Set to Redefine Off-Road Racing

 

RENO, NV

 

The High Desert Racing Association’s Eldorado Fireworks 500 race at the Tahoe-Reno Motorplex June 30th through July 8th is set to redefine what an off-road event can be for racers and fans. The Fireworks 500 will be the perfect destination for the entire family. The Tahoe-Reno area offers some of the best recreational opportunities in the western US including sightseeing, river rafting on the Truckee river, lake and stream fishing, boating, hiking, waterparks, shows, dining and the Off-Road Racing Hall of Fame. There will also be several fireworks displays in the area to celebrate our independence on the Fourth.

 

The HDRA staff has planned a long list of special events to take place the entire week of the event starting with the Off-road expo in Sparks, NV. on June 30th. Contingency and tech will be held on July 6th under the famous “Biggest Little City in the World” arch on Virginia Street in downtown Reno. Autograph signings, Monster Energy FMX freestyle shows, concerts and a private party for HDRA members will take place during the week.

Fans will be treated to an incredible spectating experience on top of a long, graded level plateau, perfect for camping and RV’s. The plateau overlooks the main pit area, the qualifying loop and a good portion of the racecourse. There will be hot food, cold beverages and a beer garden available at the event. If you would like to get a taste of HDRA racing action prior to the Fireworks 500, tune in to Fox Sports West on Thursday, May 17th to catch coverage of the Imperial 250 held outside El Centro, California. The HDRA media crew will be filming at each event to bring you complete coverage on Fox Sports West throughout the season.

The racers are looking forward to the Eldorado Fireworks 500 for several reasons. First off is the ability to recon the 118 mile long course all week during daylight hours. The recon periods are open to anyone who becomes an HDRA member so you can come out and have fun prior to the race and take in some of the spectacular scenery at your own pace. The racecourse, held on 130 square miles of private property, offers canyons, washes and ridgelines that will take you up and down the mountains where wild horses run through yucca and juniper groves. The layout of the course is in a cloverleaf shape so you won’t need a huge pit team; you can easily reach remote pit sites with the same vehicle. This also makes it great for the spectators who will see each vehicle several times on every lap.
