Full House!

DragonFire is out to beat the odds in Vegas. Best In The Desert Vegas to Reno is the longest off-road race in America so DragonFire is going all in. We have stacked the deck with defending champ Lacrecia Beurrier being backed up by Corry Weller, Ken Benson, Bobby VanBeekum and, all the way from Georgia, Jimmy Keys and Russell Griffin in the Keyscrete/DragonFire entry.
DragonFire Racing's Queen Of The Desert Lacrecia Beurrier is The Best In The Desert literally... She returns to her favorite race and is the odds-on favorite to repeat. Last year she clinched the BITD Pro Unlimited Championship with a win at the infamous V2R. She doubled down by winning not only the 545-mile race, but also locked up the 2015 BITD title.


However, DragonFire newcomer Corry Weller is betting she can beat the long odds and even longer race course in her Yamaha/Weller Racing/DragonFire YXZ 1000. Short course specialist and recent TORC series competitor, Weller is gambling on her crew chief/husband Jason Weller's ability to stack the odds in her favor.


Also part of DragonFire's full house are a pair of Kings, Lucas Oil Arizona Regional Series champs Ken Benson and Bobby VanBeekum, two thirds of the "Killer Bees" (Benson, VanBeekum, Beurrier). Dealing these guys in is the wildcard. However, a well sorted car and fierce will to win could really shuffle the deck.


Completing the DragonFire deck are a couple of cards from the Rally Raid UTV Series in Georgia. Jimmy and Russell tried their hand at desert racing in The Mint 400 and finished top DragonFire team at the richest race in America. Now they want to do even better at the longest race in America.


The 2016 General Tire "Vegas to Reno" The Long Way presented by FOX, "The Longest Off-Road Race in the United States!" is the 20th Anniversary of "Vegas to Reno". Celebrating 20 years with a 2-day staged event! The race will begin with the festivities starting in Las Vegas, McMillin Race Day 1 will go from the start line near Caliente, NV, to Tonopah and KC HiLites Race Day 2 will go from Tonopah to Reno! Start getting ready for a spectacular, multi-day event.
Mark your calendar for August 17-20, 2016.
