This move was too little too late in my opinion. The 850 class needed to be introduced 2 years earlier to keep all of those race cars in the rotation. If the class continues on the path it is there will be 10 teams racing where as if we as a class take the bull by the horn we could have 100...
After reading all these threads and trying to keep up on everyones complaints and Ideas it's probably time to throw my hat in the ring.
I think it would be ideal if there were 3 UTV classes in BITD. Pro Production, Pro Unlimited, and Open. The production and unlimited classes would be...
This is spot on! When the UTVRA was originally started there were 3 people that founded it so there would be a committee. Due to the difference of opinions and unwillingness to work for the common good 2 of the founding members left to let Cory have his way.
We got the car out in the dirt for the first time yesterday. Put about 100 miles on it. No major issues. Button up a few small things and we will be ready for Parker next weekend.

With the Utv class growing so fast in bitd and Joey launching his own race we figured it was about time to get back in the action and build a new car.
We're pretty excited to hit Parker in a couple of weeks and run the full bitd season this year.
We started with a 2015 Polaris xp1000 2...
This isn't the first BITD race to do a land rush start. The Blue Water Grand Prix in Parker was a landrush start for all classes and that first and second corner were really tight for 13 cars back then.
The start finish area in Laughlin is huge in comparison and should be great for the...
Bitd blue water was 2 cars every 30 seconds.
Last season the pure series was every 30 seconds with the exception of the last race which was a land rush start. I think only 6 raced in that final race though.
sorry dennison but the ISA was not designed to be a tech service. We created a unified rules package and it's up to each promotor to enforce it as they see fit. I feel like it would be a conflict for me to personally tech the cars as my son raced in the series last year and will be there the...
Looking forward to this race. The 300 was a lot of work for us. Just a few more weeks. Who all is gonna race the 350? Lets get a roll call going now.

I like the 4pm start time as well as a shorter lap. We need to get the cars to be visible more from the main pit for longer periods of time so that the families and crew can enjoy seeing the cars run. I think this will help bring more people to the race
I also agree that a marked alternate...
This really depends on budget... You'll see some of the top desert teams bring almost a whole car in spare parts to a race.
Some simple things to think about are suspension bolts, shock bolts, lower a-arms, axle assemblies, fluids, filters,
Sorry, you're right there was not a dirt riot race during Rally on the rocks last year. When Dirt Riot was there in April last year there were only 2 UTVs that raced.
Last weekend we had the opportunity to participate in the Pure 200 in Cal City. We participated in a multiple of ways as we were not just a racer or sponsor but both. This is the first race that my son Matt raced and I took the crew chief position and didn't get in the car. Talk about a nerve...
Dirt commander and mongrels are 8ply. Were the side wall issues front or rear tires? We have seen issues when running 9" tires on the rear and too low of pressure that it leaves the sidewall exposed if you slide the car.
Cool idea... Pretty sure you guys arn't the first to do a Battle of the Builders though. Wasn't there a magazine back in the day that put this idea together originally.
For 2013 utvs will have a class at each of the ultra 4 races. This includes glen Helen, Nora 1000, etc.
You guys may not have to worry about a utv race at all next year let alone a king of the hammers if we don't win the battle against the marines. Get your @sses involved and help fight this...
Don't know if you would even be able to use the long travel with only 500cc.
Remember that roushe UTV thing with factory long travel that was all the talk but never came out too.
Probably not the best place to post this but I'm sure you guys could use a laugh or two!

if you are using a fuel tuner that plugs into the electrical side of the injector and does not modify the injector or fuel lines going to the injector you are fine. For example a Digitune from Muzzys does not constitute a modification of a fuel system. Modifying the fuel system would be moving...
The draw for starting positions is going to be held this Thursday at 4 Wheel Parts in Compton. It will also be broadcast live on ultra4racing.com/live.
I say keep it at 800cc. This will help keep the costs down in the class plus make the rhino more competitive in the class. There are tons of rhinos out there that could be brought back out. I think most of us all started in a rhino.
I've got over 1000 miles on Mongrels in all types of terrain. Including rock crawling in Moab. The Mongrel holds up really well and does a great job in the rocks. I can't compare it to the Pit Bull as I haven't run a set of their tires. So far, everyone that has run the Mongrels has been...
