KTM PARKER "250" Las Vegas, Nevada - The Best In The Desert Racing Association and KTM Sportmotorcycles, announces the first race of the 2004 ~ "Silver State Series" the KTM Parker "250" "Duel In The Desert"! The KTM Parker "250" will be a Motorcycle and Quad only race and will be held on January 9, 10, 2004, in Parker, Arizona. Best In The Desert is very proud to have KTM Sportmotorcycles Inc. as the Title Sponsor of the KTM Parker "250" and to have KTM Sportmotorcycles once again involved in desert racing! In one year the KTM Parker "250" has established itself as a very popular race among Motorcycle and Quad racers and a favorite in the "Silver State Series" line up! The racers loved the racecourse last year, and they loved racing in Parker, Arizona. They liked the Town of Parker, they liked the Blue Water Resort & Casino, they liked the Colorado River and they most especially liked the racecourse! The Parker event is a legendary event in racing history; this year the Motorcycles and Quads will be racing on the course on a different date then the Car and Truck community so there will be two great Parker events to attend! The KTM Parker "250" will be raced on a 75-mile loop, raced around 3 times, plus an additional 8 miles to the finish line, starting in Downtown Parker, Arizona, and finishing along the mighty Colorado River! The race has a long history of great spectating areas and great supportive fans. Fans will be able to spectate from Osborne Wash, which is a great area to cheer on your favorite racers! Best In The Desert will also promote a Mini-Motorcycle and Mini-Limited Quad race on Friday, January 9, in the afternoon. The Mini Race was a big hit last year and the young racers not only liked the racing experience but they got to actually meet their racing heroes. I especially remember one boy saying, "Dad, look, that's Johnny Campbell, I can't believe it, I have a poster of him on my wall!" It was a big day for the boys and girls and Best In The Desert is excited about promoting a race for this young group of up and coming desert racers! The KTM Parker "250" will be held on Saturday, January 10, with the Start Line downtown in Parker, Arizona! You will be able to watch the BEST Motorcycle and Quad racers in the country.
