  • Jeepspeed Racers Enjoy The Journey At BITD Silver State 300
    Saturday, 30 April 2022

    Alamo, NV

    The Yokohama Tire Jeepspeed series, Presented by KMC Wheels, headed to round two at the Best in the Desert, Silver State 300 race. The Silver State 300 has an interesting format. The course sits in a remote corner of Nevada that probably has more cows than people. It’s that remoteness, and the incredible terrain that makes it so different from other desert races. Depending on desert conditions, it may be the only time all year that racers have to contend with water crossings.

It became a symbol of big dreams, and land speculation. The desert landscape in Cal City has plenty of terrain for desert racing, and the two-day Best In The Desert event brought an end to the speculation surrounding who would win the championships in each of the Jeepspeed categories.
