Description
Home to an old airfield in the middle of the desert, Chuckwalla Valley Raceway offers a balance of fast straights and challenging corners, in addition to a brilliant sunset.
One of its most distinctive and exciting features is the turn 13 fishbowl, with its 11ยฐ of banking that allows you to slingshot around at high speed.
There is only one track right now at Chuckwalla, but there are plans for 2 more to be laid down.
How do I get here?
About 3.5hrs east of LA and San Diego, Chuckwalla Valley Raceway is just past Joshua Tree Park.
Take the exit for US-177 from the I-10, turn left, drive a bit less than 5 miles, and you should see the tanks labeled with the track name. Drive down that road, and you'll arrive at Chuckwalla Raceway.
Tips from Track Manual
- This track is in the middle of nowhere. The closest non-track food, gas, or hotel is 30 minutes away. Bring your own food. Thankfully, Chuckwalla doesn't upcharge for gas as much as some other tracks do.
- The run-off areas are pretty rock-free, and there arenโt many solid walls or objects to hit, so feel free to push the limits of your car more.
