If you’re wondering why Tonopah is packed with off-road rigs, race teams, and support crews today… this is it! 🏁

The Best In The Desert Silver State 300 is underway, bringing high-powered desert racing action right here to Tonopah.

This year’s course features a super-fast, flowy 107-mile loop with a mix of technical sections to keep drivers on their toes. Racers get a controlled-speed, one-lap pre-run to learn the course before pushing it to the limit on race day. There’s also qualifying on a fast course packed with rollers, setting the stage for some serious competition.

You’ll see activity all over town as teams prep, tune, and strategize—and many are camped out at Joe Friel Sports Complex.

While you’re out there, be sure to support the Smoky Valley 4H, who will be running concessions. They’re raising funds to attend camp in Lake Tahoe this July, so grab a bite and help support a great local group!

If you’re in town, it’s worth checking out. The racers race! ⚡

Welcome to all the teams and visitors—and good luck to everyone hitting the course!
