Mojave Valley Rc adventures

Known for its majestic beauty and harsh landscapes, the Mojave Desert is an arid and wide open space perfectly suited for rock crawling and desert racing year round. Our home town of Las Vegas places us in the upper northeast region of the Mojave Desert, providing us easy access to endless rock crawling terrain.
We invite you to follow along on some of our research and evaluation projects, as well as seeing how we set up the various RC platforms. We also invite your to simply read along for the sake of entertainment and to learn a bit more about our unique desert environment. Above is a Menu drop-down tab, and that is the primary way to navigate around the content of this website. For those who do take the time to read the articles, I appreciate your time and interest and I hope you continue to follow along. |

From time to time we are asked about testing tires and crawlers on different terrain, such as wet rock or muddy trails. It's not an unusual request in that rock crawling is a sport enjoyed world-wide.
Our reasoning of our focus on desert terrain is comprised of a few different elements, but the primary reason is that the Southwest region of the USA is the birthplace of modern-day rock crawling. Southern California, Utah, Nevada, Arizona, and New Mexico all have large rock crawling communities hosting countless events specifically focused on rock crawling and desert racing. They been around for decades and have built the reputation as the place to test and compete. If you're talking about world-class rock crawling or desert racing, you're talking about these areas. |

New Content
After a long needed break from crawling, we're back with some new content on the way. One of our 2026 goals is to add in a bimonthly update post, discussing some of the projects we're working on and what you can expect for upcoming reviews. Most likely we will place the bimonthly update into it's own tab, making this easier to follow and not clutter up our landing page. Last Update: 2/25/2026 |

Our primary goal is to share with you a unique depth of high-quality information which cannot be found anywhere else on the internet.
Our structure is built around written content with some support from photos and short video clips. We believe that if you're going to take the time to write thousands of words on a specific topic, you actually need to understand the topic. There is no short-cut to this approach; you must invest the time and resources to accomplish such a task, and it's nothing we shy away from. And to that end, we hope you enjoy the content we present. -MVRCA |

A Word on AI and Chat GPT
On-line content is changing fast, and I think the shift to computer generated or computer-assisted content is only going to gain in speed and scope. I believe it to be the "easy button" of creative writing and a cancer replacing actual experiences with a disingenuous, artificial world. With that said, MVRCA refuses to follow the trend of hitting the "easy button" for any type content.
We will never deviate from this chosen path. The original content presented here was and will continue to be developed by two regular guys with day jobs, receding hairlines, and families which keep us busy, happy, and somewhat crazy. Many thanks for your continued support. 11/8/2024 |
