Las Vegas, Nevada – Best In The Desert Racing Association is proud to announce the first Car/Truck event of the 2004 “Silver State Series,” the Blue Water Resort & Casino Parker "425". It’s just around the corner; just four weeks away to one of the largest off-road races in the United States! Best In The Desert has once again been awarded the two off-road racing permits from the Bureau of Land Management from Lake Havasu City to promote the Parker Events! The first permit was for the very successful KTM Parker "250", which was just run January 10th! It was a great event and the Motorcycle and Quad community loved the new Parker Python, a new exciting, spectator friendly course inside the Main Pit.
Best In The Desert Racing Association will be promoting the Blue Water Resort & Casino Parker "425" event for Cars and Trucks on February 5-8, 2004. Best In The Desert received an overwhelming response from the Parker Area and La Paz County Community, and the Colorado River Indian Tribes for a race well run in 2003 and are set for another very successful Parker "425"! Casey Folks, Director of Best In The Desert, is excited and very proud to have been selected to promote both of these events with a newly signed three-year contract!
The Blue Water Resort & Casino Parker "425" event will be on February 5-8, 2004, for Cars and Trucks, with a one-day pre-fun run on Sunday, January 11, 2004. The Blue Water Resort & Casino Parker “425” will be a 135-mile loop and will be raced three times. Not only is the race a legend but many of the off-road race legends got their start in Parker, Arizona. The Blue Water Resort & Casino Parker “425” event will be billed as the “The Legend Lives On” with race legends Larry Ragland, Rod Hall, John Swift and Spencer Low all racing the Blue Water Resort & Casino Parker "425"! Yes, you read that right! Race legend Larry Ragland will be racing the Parker "425" in the 1400 Unlimited Trick Truck class, along with his son Chad Ragland. Larry is a Race Champion with Championships that date back to the ‘70’s! Best In The Desert is not only proud to have Larry Ragland racing the Parker "425" but over 100 incredible race teams that are all capable of winning the Parker "425" in their respective classes!
The Blue Water Resort & Casino Parker “425” will finish along the beautiful Colorado River. Not only is the Blue Water Resort & Casino a beautiful property and right on the river, but finishing the race along the mighty Colorado is going to be an awesome experience, an experience and an adventure you won’t want to miss! The Time Trial event for start positions will be held on Thursday, February 5, location and time to be released at a later date. Registration, Contingency and Technical Inspection will be held on Friday, February 6, 2004, from 10am to 6pm, at the beautiful Blue Water Resort & Casino in Parker, Arizona.
