2025 AZOP Cinder Mountain Grand Prix – UTV ONLY Announcement
Attention 570 Class and Big UTV Racers
We at AZOP hope everyone had a fun and relaxing summer—we’re excited to get back to racing, and we know you are too!
Over the past few years, we’ve encountered ongoing challenges during the UTV races at Cinder Mountain. With smaller class sizes and longer laps compared to bikes, we’ve seen a number of issues arise, including:
- Youth racers getting off-course or lost
- Accusations of course cutting
- Speeding violations in the scoring area
To address these concerns and improve the safety, fairness, and efficiency of UTV racing at the Cinders, we’re proud to announce a new partnership with Racing Trax.
New for 2025: Mandatory GPS Tracking System for All Big UTVs (Including 570 Class) for Cinder Mountain Grand Prix.
Racing Trax GPS trackers will be required for all UTVs racing in the 570 class and above. These devices provide several critical benefits:
- Real-time vehicle tracking in case of breakdowns or lost drivers
- Alerts for missed checkpoints
- Notifications for on-course hazards or vehicles ahead
- Speed monitoring in designated zones
- Anti-course-cutting detection with full tracking history
Tracker Rental Info
Trackers will be available for rent only — personal trackers will not be permitted.
Rental cost is $135 per race, a discounted rate compared to national events ($200–$300).
Trackers must be paid by credit card and are picked up at the track.
You must arrive at the starting line 30 minutes before your race to activate your tracker.
To reserve your tracker ahead of time and for questions, please contact:

Last-Minute Racers
Trackers can still be rented on-site, but please allow extra time to complete the necessary paperwork.
We’re confident this system will enhance the race experience for everyone — increasing fairness, safety, and accountability without requiring additional on-course staffing or checkpoint delays.
