Parker 425 Entries Soaring
Posted January 22, 2019
Best in The Desert Race Operations Manager Donald Jackson commented, ” Our first car and truck race of the year, the BlueWater Resort & Casino Parker “425” presented by IMPACT, is shaping up to be one of our largest first-of-the-year events. The draw last week had over 200 entries on the books, and we expect many more by race day, another record for a Best in the Desert Parker 425. Come out to Parker, Arizona, to take in the sun, the dramatic desert scenery, and the newly remodeled BlueWater Resort & Casino. Enjoy the camaraderie and yet another fantastic Best in the Desert race. Last month’s Parker 250 GMZ UTV Winter Nationals Presented by Polaris RZ was a huge success. At that race over 280 motorcycles and UTVs left the start line with several down-to-the-wire finishes.”
In the world we live in there are good off-road desert races, there are great off-road desert races and then there are LEGENDS. The BlueWater Resort & Casino Parker “425” presented by IMPACT is just that, a legend in off-road desert racing ~ “THE LEGEND LIVES ON!” The Parker Legend started in 1972, known as the Norra Dam “500”, then in 1974 as the Parker “400” and grew to become a legend in off-road desert racing. Best In The Desert is keeping this great event alive, there’s no question about it, it’s better today and it’s a race you don’t want to miss. There’s no better way to start your 2019 racing season than with the BlueWater Resort & Casino Parker “425”presented by IMPACT , “The Legend Lives On!”
The BlueWater Resort & Casino Parker “425”presented by IMPACT no doubt stands alone as one of everyone’s favorite races of “The American Off-Road Racing Series!” All year long this is what we hear from racers, “Parker is my favorite race” “Parker is the best race going.” “I love going to Parker.” The lure of the challenge, as well as the excitement of this great legend in off-road races is attracting interest from all over the United States, and is attracting those who are looking for a true “American Off-Road Adventure!” If you like off-road adventure, if you would like to race on an exciting off-road racecourse, if you like long distance off-road racing, then you MUST come and participate in the BlueWater Resort & Casino Parker “425” presented by IMPACT. Even the unprecedented rain we had for the 2009 Parker “425” was an adventure; not many of us had been caught in a downpour like that before, it was unbelievable! Ok, maybe some more rain in 2010 and 2011 but that didn’t last as long. You have a 50/50 shot of a wet course, the good news may be “no dust!”
You will again run the exciting PARKER PYTHON! The Python will be a rough section of jumps in front of thousands of cheering spectators. The Python will be modified a bit this year and you have two chances to test your skills against the Parker Python! The BlueWater Resort & Casino Parker “425” has something for everyone; The beautiful backdrop of the Colorado River, Time Trials, Race Legends, the Parker Python, the beautiful BlueWater Resort & Casino, Shea Road Spectating Area, and the exciting long distance, off-road race challenge, the BlueWater Resort Parker “425”!
