Attention Racers, Families, and Friends,
We want to share an important update regarding the upcoming Route 66 Offroad Challenge scheduled for April 25–26, 2026.
After many hours of preparation, planning, and financial investment into building out the Offroad Challenge course, we are just as disappointed as you are to make this change. Unfortunately, a last-minute disagreement involving the rancher and the City of Holbrook has made it impossible for us to move forward at the original location in Holbrook, AZ.
Due to these unforeseen circumstances beyond AZOP Racing’s control, the event will be relocated to Rutz MX in Holbrook, AZ.
While we understand this change may be frustrating, we’re confident that Rutz MX in Holbrook, AZ will provide an excellent setting for a great weekend of racing. Our team is already hard at work preparing the venue, including re-grading the entrance road, expanding parking and camping areas, and reworking sections of the east side of the track to make it more SxS-friendly.
With some recent rainfall in the area, track conditions are shaping up to be even better than our last event.
We are committed to making this transition as smooth as possible and delivering a fun, competitive, and memorable race weekend for everyone.
We sincerely appreciate your understanding and continued support, and we look forward to seeing you at the track.
– AZOP Racing
