 Desert racing vehicles, which include rugged enduro-style motorcycle, four wheeled all-terrain vehicles, trucks (like Group T4), pickup trucks (like Trophy Trucks), and dune buggies, have specialized suspensions with increased wheel travel.The now-defunct Barstow to Vegas, which was held in the Mojave Desert from 1967 to 1974 and 1983 to 1989, was a well-known example of desert racing in North America.Desert racing, in its most organized form, began in Southern California in the 1920s.
