Best In The Desert has announced that the 2021 All Terrain Concepts UTV Legends Championship scheduled for March 25-28, 2021 in Laughlin, Nevada has been rescheduled to September 9-12, 2021.

Racers who are registered for the 2021 All Terrain Concepts UTV Legends Championship will automatically be granted entry to the rescheduled event on September 9-12, 2021, or can choose to have their entry fee reimbursed.


This is a press release from Best In The Desert…

Las Vegas, NV (November 25, 2020) — Best In The Desert is excited to announce the finalized racing schedule for 2021. The events planned for next year’s calendar include timeless classics like the BlueWater Parker 425 presented by Jimco Racing, the Tensor Tire Parker 250, the Jimco Racing Silver State 300, the Maxxis Tires Casey Folks Vegas to Reno Presented by Fox, the King Shocks Desert Classic, and the BlueWater Desert Challenge, which will take place on two separate weekends of racing.

To add to the list of legendary favorites are two exciting new events: the UTV Legends Championships and the Rocky Mountain ATV/MC World Hare and Hound Championship reserved for the best-of-the-best in off-road desert motorcycle racing.

The UTV Legends Championships will pit the best UTV racers from desert and short-course racing on a special course designed to level the playing field between the two groups. It will also include non-competitive events and activities for weekend warriors and UTV enthusiasts.

To add to the excitement in starting a new year and leaving 2020 in the rearview mirror, the Maxxis Triple Crown series will be back and better than ever in 2021. Rather than paying out winners at each event, however, the bonus money will be awarded at the end of the year at an expanded placement and at higher amounts totaling $220,000.

The races that will make up the Maxxis Triple Crown in 2021 include the following:

  • Bluewater Resort Parker 425 Presented by Jimco Racing – Cars & Trucks
  • Tensor Tire Parker 250 – Motorcycle, Quads & UTVs
  • Maxxis Tires Casey Folks Vegas to Reno The Other Way Presented by Fox – All classes
  • Bluewater Desert Challenge – All classes

Racers must start and finish all Maxxis Triple Crown events to be put in the running for the top position and the epic prize payout.

Finally, young Best In The Desert fans will be happy to know that the 4WheelParts Youth UTV Series will also return in 2021. We look toward our young racers to keep the sport we love and cherish alive, and to continue with the youth series brings off-road racing families together. Best In The Desert is excited to see young UTV racers compete again in 2021.
