The American Off-Road Racing Championship has officially announced its 2027 race schedule.  

The 2027 season will take competitors across the deserts of Arizona and Nevada, organizers said, beginning with The Parker 400 in January and concluding with the UTV World Championship in December.

The 2027 American Off-Road Racing Championship calendar features seven major events across Arizona and Nevada. The season begins with The Parker 400, January 13–17, in Parker, Arizona, followed by The Mint 400, March 3–7, in Las Vegas. Racing returns to Las Vegas for the Silver State 300, April 21–25, before the Vegas to Reno Legends Rally brings competitors together in Reno, July 28–31. Just two weeks later, the Casey Folks Vegas to Reno "The Other Way" returns August 11–14, followed by the Laughlin Desert Classic, October 13–17, in Laughlin, Nevada. The 2027 UTV championship season will conclude with the UTV World Championship, December 1–5, with the location to be announced.

"This partnership was never about simply combining two organizations," said Matt Martelli, co-founder of UNLTD Off-Road Racing. "It was about bringing together the right people, races, resources and experience to build the championship this sport deserves. After a tremendously successful first year, we're excited about what's ahead for the American Off-Road Racing Championship. Next year, we'll build on the momentum of the first-ever Vegas to Reno 'The Other Way,' relocate the Silver State 300 to the heart of Las Vegas and bring back the UTV World Championship, the event that helped launch and define a generation of UTV racing."

In 2026, the American Off-Road Racing Championship (AORC) took a major step toward unifying and strengthening American desert racing by bringing UNLTD Off-Road Racing and Best in the Desert together under a single championship platform. The inaugural season established a unified points championship, rulebook, class structure, race numbering system, manufacturer competition and new opportunities for racers, teams, sponsors and fans.

"Casey built Best In The Desert around a simple promise: give racers the toughest, best-run events possible and create races they would spend a lifetime chasing," said Bryan Folks, CEO of Best In The Desert. "Today, this championship brings together decades of history and credibility with the production, media, marketing, technology and resources needed to take the sport to the next level. What we've built together in just one year is the solid foundation for greater things coming. I believe my father would be proud of where this is headed."

The 2026 American Off-Road Racing Championship concludes with the Laughlin Desert Classic, October 15–18, in Laughlin, Nevada.
