The Wild West Motorsports Park was released in iRacing as part of its off-road expansion, bringing the thrill of short course dirt racing to the sim. Located in Sparks, Nevada, just outside of Reno, Wild West was a premier stop for Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series events until its closure in 2020.
The release of Wild West in iRacing captures a track that was built specifically for modern short course off-road trucks, with high-speed sections, technical corners, and dramatic elevation changes. Its addition expands the Dirt Road discipline with another venue that rewards aggression, precision, and consistency.
What makes Wild West unique in iRacing
- Natural elevation: Built into the desert hillside, the track rises and falls dramatically.
- Wide lanes: Encourages side-by-side racing and bold overtaking moves.
- Big jumps: Trucks fly through the air on massive dirt ramps, testing throttle control.
- Professional heritage: A staple of national off-road racing tours.
- Distinct Nevada setting: Surrounded by desert scenery, giving it a unique look in the sim.
Wild West’s arrival in iRacing ensures that even though the real track has since shut its gates, its legacy lives on in virtual racing.
