Hello Everyone! I figured I would document my journey to the desert and the world of UTV racing. It has been a much longer journey than I originally thought but here I am still pushing forward! With this thread, I will document my build, show how and why I did certain things, describe the challenges I faced, and showcase the product I used and why. Once the racing begins, I hope to share what I learn so that those following in my footsteps can more easily progress! While I have a good head on my shoulders, I am definitely not an expert and I will try to be as honest as possible with the decisions I made. Real world advice is always appreciated!
Desert racing has held my interest since I was a little boy! I absolutely loved looking at the trophy trucks in magazines as a kid. I would stare at the fabrication genius that made up the trucks with wonder and amazement! Like many people, the evolution of the UTV has allowed my dream of racing the desert to morph into a reality!
I purchased my first UTV in the Polaris XP 1000 September, 2014. The capabilities of this machine amazed me! I was hooked. Not too long after, I started reading online about this class of desert racers that were racing these machines! I knew this opportunity was for me to pursue! With the release of the Polaris XP 1000 Turbo, I was ready.
