High Desert Racing Association (HDRA) announces their re-entry into desert race operations to promote professional desert races in the Nevada-Southern California-Arizona areas. This announcement was made in conjunction with the World Premier of the Desert People 9 production at the Roger Norman Motorsports complex in El Cajon.

The group of Roger Norman, Robert Gross and Ken Flippin now own all rights to the HDRA name and assets. Norman is a well-known professional off-road racer, and both Gross and Flippin were previously associated with another off-road race sanctioning group.

"Cost reduction to racers is the long-term goal of this HDRA organization while providing racers with quality events that are cost-effective, safe and innovative.

It was a hot day out in Las Vegas where Kyle Conlon set the pace in qualifying taking the pole with a time of 4:15:627, beating Ray Griffith by a few hundreds of a second. Jimco Racing will have two class 1500′s off the start to give them an advantage from the start for an overall. Rounding out the top five was Gus Vildosola Jr. (in Jesse Jones’ truck), Chuck Hovey, and Mikey Childress. With clean air Kyle Conlon will be hard to beat if he continues on the same pace he has been for the past few races.
